Getting Help

Before Asking Questions

  1. Check the documentation - Search through our guides and API reference
  2. Review existing issues - Your question might already be answered
  3. Try debugging steps - Use debug logs to gather more information

How to Ask Effective Questions

When seeking help in the community:
  • What are you trying to accomplish?
  • What command did you run?
  • What was the expected vs actual behavior?
  • Operating system and version
  • vet version (vet version)
  • Relevant configuration files
  • Error messages and logs
  • Use code blocks for commands and outputs
  • Include relevant parts of manifests or config files
  • Sanitize any sensitive information

Debug Information

To help troubleshoot issues, gather debug information:
# Get version information
