Crash and issue management

Last updated on

Overview

As your game's development progresses, the you are often managing multiple issues. One build can produce as many as five bugs, more if the game is playable on multiple platforms. AccelByte Development Toolkit (ADT) helps you manage multiple crashes and issues easily by marking issues with the following statuses:

  • Snoozed: Issues you snooze will not show in your issues list until a specified time passes. You can snooze an issue for a day or for a week.
  • Resolved: Issues you resolve are issues that you have completed.

This guide shows you how to manage the status of a crash or issue.
