Support options
Depending on your needs, you can either submit a formal request for in-depth support or get quick answers directly in our Slack channel.
When to submit a request
For issues needing further action or detailed investigation by the DS team, please use our Support Request Form (pinned in our #rnd-designsystem-support channel). This applies to:
- Topics requiring input from our designers and engineers.
- Requests to add items to our backlog.
- Reviews of bugs or component behavior.
- Exploring components ideas before proposing them.
Once your request is submitted, you’ll receive a link to track its progress via our Support List.
When to use Slack
For straightforward questions or issues that can be answered briefly, you can message us directly on our support channel. Examples include:
- Clarifications on documentation or libraries.
- Immediate help with minor design system issues.

What happens next
After submitting a request, you will receive a link to track it. The design system team will respond within 48 hours and categorize it into one of these outcomes:
- Something new: Your request involves creating something from scratch.
- Update: Your request involves enhancing or improving an existing component or pattern.
- No work needed: We will direct you to an existing solution, and no further work is required.
- Team-specific work: The request falls outside the design system’s scope and should be addressed by the product team.
