Overview of OCI Support Center
If you are working with Oracle Cloud, use their services and need support from oracle. Earlier customers used My Oracle support from a non-cloud platform only. But now you can raise & manage service requests from the OCI console.

Advantages of OCI Support Center
- The new OCI Support Center Dashboard is your single pane of glass for all your product support and documentation needs.
- The new Support Life Raft button is now available on all Console pages and provides single-click access to support whenever you need it.
- When you create a new support request, you only need to describe your issue, and Support Center will fill in all the key environment details automatically.
- The documentation links are relevant to the OCI service page you are on, so no more time-consuming searching for documentation.
Cloud Support Center in OCI Console
New and experienced OCI Customers can easily take advantage of Support Center. You can access the Support Center either from the top navigation Help Menu or from the Life Raft button.
Note: You can move the life raft vertically on the page
The best part about having support in the OCI Console experience is that your browsing context is used to provide focused and targeted documentation recommendations.
If you have a question about a service, try console’s support chat. Oracle has enabled the chat experience for all Customers, including Always Free, and Oracle constantly expanding their content powered by Oracle Digital Assistant. You can access Support Chat from the top navigation Help Menu, the Support Center Dashboard, or from the Support Life Raft.
Create a Support Request from OCI Console
Most important of all, creating support requests has never been easier! You won’t have to tell about your environmental details when you are desperate for support. The support center automatically adds all the key information needed to get started troubleshooting, including your tenant OCID, region, and URL from which you created the request. It also adds service-specific information to help solve the request and reduce the back-and-forth with support engineers.
Note: You should be a user of My Oracle Support.
After you link your My Oracle Support account, you will be able to manage your Oracle Cloud Support Requests from the OCI Console. My Oracle Support will continue to be your source to manage support for non-Cloud subscriptions.
