On March 17, 2022, the Splunk Observability Cloud (SignalFx) Support site joined the Splunk Support Portal , where you can create new cases, update your open cases, and search the knowledge base. You’ll continue to receive the same world-class support from your Splunk Observability Cloud support engineers.
If you have an existing Splunk Observability Cloud (SignalFx) Support site account, here are some notable changes to the support process using the new Splunk Support Portal:
All of your open cases have been migrated to the Splunk Support Portal.
You can no longer create new cases by emailing
observability-support@splunk.comorsignalfx-support@splunk.com.You can’t use your existing Splunk Observability Cloud (SignalFx) Support site credentials to log in to the Splunk Support Portal. This also means that any single sign-on functionality that you used to log in to the Splunk Observability Cloud (SignalFx) Support site doesn’t work to log you in to the Splunk Support Portal.
For example, if you select the Splunk Support Portal link on the Splunk Observability Cloud application home page or navigate to then in the application, you aren’t automatically logged in to the Splunk Support Portal.
To log in to the Splunk Support Portal, you must create a Splunk account, if you don’t already have an account. You use your Splunk account credentials to log in to the Splunk Support Portal.
