The community support team is here to help with any technical issues. To do that, we sometimes need a little more information before we can solve your issue, so we'll ask you to download and share your log file. Log files enable our engineers to investigate the exact errors you're experiencing so we can fix them faster for you and other Pitch users.
This article outlines how to save your log file to share with the Pitch team.
