|
|
||
| <h2>Access existing tickets</h2> | ||
|
|
||
| <p>If you have opened at least one Datadog support ticket, follow this process to access all your Datadog support tickets:</p> | ||
| <ol> | ||

| <h2>Password requirements</h2> | ||
|
|
||
| <p>To ensure the security of your account, any password used to sign in to Datadog's Zendesk support portal must meet the following requirements:</p> | ||
| <ol> | ||
| <li>Password complexity: | ||
| <ul> | ||
| <li>Must include at least <strong>12 characters</strong>.</li> | ||
| <li>Must contain <strong>uppercase and lowercase letters (A-Z)</strong>.</li> | ||
| <li>Must include at least <strong>one number (0-9)</strong>.</li> | ||
| <li>Must include at least <strong>one special character</strong> (for example, <code>!</code>, <code>@</code>, <code>#</code>, or <code>%</code>).</li> | ||
| <li>Must <strong>not resemble an email address</strong>.</li> | ||
| <li>Must <strong>not include the word "Zendesk"</strong>.</li> | ||
| </ul> | ||
| </li> | ||
| <li>Failed attempts and lockout: | ||
| <ul> | ||
| <li>Users are allowed a maximum of <strong>5 attempts</strong> before the account is locked out temporarily.</li> | ||
| </ul> | ||
| </li> | ||
| <li>Prohibited sequences: | ||
| <ul> | ||
| <li>Passwords cannot include more than a specified number of consecutive letters or numbers. For instance, if the limit is set to 4, the system rejects passwords like <code>admin12345</code>.</li> | ||
| </ul> | ||
| </li> | ||
| <li>Previous passwords: | ||
| <ul> | ||
| <li>Users cannot reuse a certain number of their previously used passwords.</li> | ||
| </ul> | ||
| </li> | ||
| <li>Expiration policy: | ||
| <ul> | ||
| <li>Passwords must be updated at least <strong>every 90 days</strong>, or whenever prompted by the system.</li> | ||
| </ul> | ||
| </li> | ||
| </ol> | ||
|

| <h2>Troubleshooting</h2> | ||
|
|
||
| <h3>Error: Refused to connect</h3> | ||
|
|
||
| <p><strong>Refused to connect</strong> errors come from privacy settings that block third-party cookies. To solve this issue, make sure the browser allows third-party cookies from Zendesk. Find instructions on how to <a href="https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/95647">Clear, enable, and manage cookies in Chrome</a> in Google Chrome Help.</p> | ||
|
|
||
| <p>If your browser has ad-blockers, turn them off to see if this allows you to sign in. Some ad-blockers have their own list of exceptions. In this case, add <strong>datadog.zendesk.com</strong> to the allow list.</p> | ||
