# Reporting an error

To request an update, see [Updating an iGUIDE](https://planitar.gitbook.io/iguide-support/support-center/iguide-portal/how-to/edit-an-iguide/request-an-update).

In January of 2023, the Request an Update tool was added to the iGUIDE Portal. The new method creates a task that is directly added to the iGUIDE Drafting Team’s processing queue and allows you to report an error on an iGUIDE directly to the iGUIDE Portal, mostly eliminating intervention by the iGUIDE Support Team.

If you encounter an error when using the Request an Update tool, instead create a [support ticket](http://support.youriguide.com/) and send your error report via the Support Desk. Reporting an Error on an iGUIDE:

1. To report an error on an iGUIDE, first of all, navigate to the iGUIDE in question via the [manage.youriguide.com](https://manage.youriguide.com/) portal, and click on the iGUIDE Details button (1). See Figure 1.
