|
To direct people to specific support resources, you can add a SUPPORT file to your repository's root, `docs`, or `.github` folder. When someone creates an issue in your repository, they will see a link to your project's SUPPORT file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can create default support resources for your organization or personal account. For more information, see [AUTOTITLE](/communities/setting-up-your-project-for-healthy-contributions/creating-a-default-community-health-file).
|
|
|
|
> [!TIP]
|
|
> To help people find your support guidelines, you can link to your SUPPORT file from other places in your repository, such as your [README file](/repositories/managing-your-repositorys-settings-and-features/customizing-your-repository/about-readmes).
