What are collectors?
Collectors are dynamic, configurable forms you embed in your player support workflow to gather structured information before a user is handed off to an agent, or even when no ticket needs to be created at all and you just want to collect information. They offer a flexible way to collect valuable data that helps streamline the support process or operate entirely independently without triggering a support ticket.
Why use collectors?
Common use-cases
- Bug or player reports – Reproduce issues faster by capturing device, OS, steps to repro, screenshots, logs and more.
- Feedback collection – Collect user feedback to gather valuable insights.
- Lost account inquiries – Gather identifiers (player ID, last login, receipts) up front to speed up recovery.
- Missing purchases – Collect transaction IDs and payment receipts so you can resolve payment issues faster.
- Anything else – If you need structured input, a collector can handle it.
Tip: You can create as many collectors as you like, so feel free to get granular if needed.
Where and how collectors can be used
The built-in “Contact Us” collector
Every game ships with a default Contact Us collector. If users contact support without going through a more specialized collector, the default contact us collector is used to collect whatever information the user can provide upfront.
You can also configure which users have to go through a default contact us collector in order to contact support and which users can bypass it (e.g. your VIP users) in the game settings.
