Atlas Suggestions Guidelines
We want this to be the best community it can possibly be. So let us know what you think, or how we can help improve your experience on Atlas, by sharing your ideas on the Atlas Suggestions idea board.
We also encourage you to share any issues or potential bugs you spot on Atlas in in our idea exchange. We actively monitor this area for new suggestions and feedback.
Before you get started, make sure you review the following information.
Submitting Ideas
- Search for an existing Idea in the Idea Board
- When creating a post, enter the title and click the "i" symbol at the right, then "View similar posts." If you see an idea similar to your own, simply visit the post, give it a Like to indicate your support for the idea, and add any additional conversation or comments to the topic. (If you submit an idea that already exists, we will simply merge the ideas to ensure that conversations are richer.)
- Draft your new idea and submit it
- The more we know about your idea – who it’s for, the motivation behind it, and what the concept is - the more accurate we’ll be when it comes time to prioritize and size it. Be sure to include the following if possible:
- The Role: What type of user is the feature for?
- The Outcome: What is the problem that you are trying to solve or the outcome the user is hoping to accomplish?
- The Benefit: What is the overall value and importance of the feature?
- The Context: Any additional information like screenshots or examples from other products is always helpful
- The more we know about your idea – who it’s for, the motivation behind it, and what the concept is - the more accurate we’ll be when it comes time to prioritize and size it. Be sure to include the following if possible:
- Subscribe to idea boards and engage with other ideas
- You can subscribe to an Idea Exchange or even specific labels to be notified of new activity. Simply select the grey bell icon at the top right of the page under the navigation bar, and you’ll be notified of updates. Hint: Check your notification settings to ensure that you are notified when activity happens on ideas you care about.
