      Update as of 9 May 2017

      Hello Cloud customers and evaluators,

      Great news - your customers can now send requests and read help articles without logging in. As suggested below, all they need to provide is an email address to create and track a request. To learn more and set this up for your service desk, https://confluence.atlassian.com/servicedeskcloud/blog/2017/04/introducing-the-login-free-portal-for-jira-service-desk-cloud.
      Thank you for your feedback and suggestions on this feature, and for helping us build a better JIRA Service Desk.

      Cheers,

      Problem Definition

      Currently, the Help Center experience needs users to be logged in. This feels very counter-intuitive in external support Servicedesk world. We miss opportunity to help customers search our knowledge sources, provide them valuable links to the documentation and other information.

      Suggested Solution

      Besides that, having the request creation process requiring login increases friction for some cases. What I envision as great service will be explaining your request and providing contact information (= email). Once we see that this email already exists, we will ask the customer to log in. Otherwise, we will offer a sign up.
