What should I do if the activation process is interrupted?¶

If you have already registered a TrueWatch account but have not yet created a workspace, you can log in with your registered account. After logging in, the following page will be displayed, and you can choose the appropriate method to create a workspace based on your needs.

What is the difference between TrueWatch Commercial Plan and TrueWatch Exclusive Plan? Can they be switched?¶

They cannot be switched. TrueWatch Commercial Plan uses the default ES storage, while TrueWatch Exclusive Plan uses SLS storage.

For more details, see Data Storage Options.

Note: SLS storage is only available by purchasing the TrueWatch Exclusive Plan from Alibaba Cloud Marketplace. Workspaces already using the default storage cannot be switched to SLS storage.

For more details, see Purchase the TrueWatch Exclusive Plan from Alibaba Cloud Marketplace.

Why is my workspace locked?¶

If the Billing Center account is overdue, or if the Alibaba Cloud, AWS, or Huawei Cloud Marketplace subscription used for settlement is released, expired, deleted, or in any other abnormal state, the related workspace will be locked. TrueWatch will send a notification email.

How can I restore a locked workspace?¶

Within the 14-day lock countdown, the workspace stops receiving new data, but you can still view and analyze existing data. The workspace owner can click Go to Billing Center on the lock notification page to handle billing issues such as overdue payments or abnormal Marketplace subscriptions. Non-owners cannot perform this action and must contact the workspace owner.

After 14 days, the workspace will be fully locked, inaccessible, and unable to receive or view any data. To restore it, contact your account manager.

For more details, see Workspace Lock, Unlock, and Dissolution.

If the above FAQs do not resolve the issue, how can I get online support?¶
