The Atarim help centre and live chat support options
Before you start

Relevant for

  • Anyone using Atarim — team members, administrators, and clients working in a shared project.

Required knowledge

  • None.

Tools & resources needed

  • Access to your Atarim dashboard, or an email client if you would rather write in.

Most questions have an answer already written. The rest are worth asking a person — and how you ask makes a considerable difference to how quickly you get somewhere. Help sits one click away in the sidebar, with the messenger available on every page as a fallback.

If something has stopped working suddenly and nothing changed at your end. It is the fastest way to tell an outage from a configuration problem, and it saves waiting for a reply that would only tell you the same thing.

Using the Help Menu

  1. In the Atarim sidebar, select Help. A menu opens with the support options.
  2. Choose Help Center to browse or search the documentation, or Start a Live Chat to talk to someone. Live chat opens in the dashboard, so you do not lose your place.

Note
The Help menu is permission-controlled. If it is not in your sidebar, your role does not have access to it — email support directly instead, or ask an Administrator on your team.

Open a Support Ticket Through the Messenger

The messenger is available on Atarim pages independently of the sidebar, which makes it the more reliable route if the Help menu is not available to your role.

  1. Find the messenger icon at the bottom-right corner of the page.
  2. Select it and complete the form: Name, Email Address and a description of the issue.
  3. Submit. A support representative replies to the email address you gave.
The messenger form — name, email address and a description
Use the email address your account is registered under
Support can find your workspace from it, which saves an exchange establishing who you are and which account you mean.

Search the Help Center First

The Help Center covers setup, integrations, collaboration, billing and troubleshooting, and it is organised into collections so you can browse when you do not know the term to search for.

Search using the words you can see on screen
Rather than what you think the feature is called. Searching the exact button label or error message finds the right article far more reliably than describing the problem in your own terms.

What to Include When You Contact Support

This is the part that decides whether the first reply solves your problem or asks you three questions. None of it takes long to gather.

IncludeWhy it helps
What you were trying to doThe goal often suggests a different route that works today.
What happened insteadIncluding the exact wording of any error message.
The steps you tookSo support can reproduce it rather than guess.
The project or website involvedBehaviour often depends on how that project is configured.
A screenshot or short recordingFrequently the single most useful thing you can send.
Your browser, and whether you have tried anotherRules out extensions and cached state quickly.
A short screen recording beats a long description
Almost every time. It shows the sequence, the timing and anything on screen you did not think to mention — and it usually takes less effort than writing the same thing out.
Do not send passwords or API keys
Support will never need your account password, and keys should stay private. If a problem seems to require credentials, say so and support will suggest a safe way forward.

Things Worth Checking Yourself First

A handful of issues have well-known causes, and checking them takes less time than waiting for a reply.

SymptomWorth checking
A website will not load in AtarimWhether it loads in a private browser window, and whether a firewall or security rule is blocking Atarim.
You cannot sign inPassword reset, and whether two-factor is set up on the account.
A feature is locked or missingWhether it is included on your plan, and whether your role has permission for it.
An integration stopped workingWhether keys were regenerated on either side, and whether the connection needs re-authorising.
Something looks staleA hard refresh, and whether a different browser shows the same thing.
Two of the most common causes are not faults at all
A feature can be absent because your plan does not include it, or because your role is not permitted to see it — and those look identical from the outside. Learn More About User Roles And Permissions
Note
If you do not hear back within the time you would expect, check your spam folder before following up — replies land there more often than people assume. If there is genuinely nothing, write again referencing your original request rather than starting fresh, so the thread stays together.

FAQs

How do I reach a person quickly?

Use Start a Live Chat from the Help menu in the sidebar. It opens inside the dashboard, so you keep your place.

What is the support email address?

support@atarim.io. Use it when you need to attach files or want a written record.

The Help menu is not in my sidebar

It is permission-controlled, so your role may not have access. Email support directly, or ask an Administrator on your team.

How do I know if Atarim is down?

Check the status page linked from the Help Center footer before assuming the problem is at your end.

Can clients and guests contact support?

Anyone can email support, but questions about a specific project are usually better directed to the agency running it — they can see the configuration.

What should I send with a bug report?

What you were doing, what happened, the exact error wording, the project involved, and a screenshot or recording if you can.

How long does a response take?

Support aims to reply as quickly as possible. Clear details and screenshots speed it up considerably, since they remove a round of questions.

Can I schedule a call?

Support runs mainly through the messenger and email, but for anything needing deeper troubleshooting the team may suggest a call or a screen-sharing session.

I have not had a reply — what now?

Check your spam folder first. If there is nothing, write again referencing your original request so the thread stays together.

Do I need admin access to contact support?

No. Anyone can request support. Having the account email and a link to the affected project or task will speed things up.

Where can I talk to other Atarim users?

The community at atarim.io/community, which is the better place for “how does your agency handle this” questions.

Common issues

  • The Help menu is not in your sidebar — it is permission-controlled. Use the messenger at the bottom right, email support, or ask an Administrator.
  • A feature is missing rather than broken — check whether your plan includes it and whether your role permits it. Those two look identical from the outside.
  • No reply yet — check your spam folder, then write again referencing the original request rather than starting a fresh one.
  • Support asks you three questions instead of solving it — the first message was missing detail. Include what you were doing, what happened, the exact error wording and the project involved.
  • You are not sure whether it is an outage — check the status page linked from the Help Center footer.
  • Support cannot find your account — write in from the email address the account is registered under.

Conclusion

Search the Help Center first, since most questions are already answered there. When you do need a person, live chat from the Help menu is the quickest route, and email suits anything needing attachments.

Whichever you choose, the detail you include up front is what decides whether the first reply is the useful one. What you were doing, what happened, and a screenshot will usually get you there. Discover Troubleshooting Common Issues

Tips & best practices

  • Search using the exact words on screen rather than your own description.
  • Check the status page before reporting something that stopped suddenly.
  • Send a short recording rather than writing a long description.
  • Include the project or website name — behaviour often depends on its configuration.
  • Never send passwords or API keys.
  • Check plan and permissions before assuming a missing feature is a fault.
  • Reply promptly to follow-up questions — most delays come from waiting on the reporter, not on support.
  • Include a link to the affected project, task or collaboration link.
