How can I change the Bluemix documentation?

Question

I found that the Bluemix documentation is wrong in an example of the SQLDB service and I ran into an issue. I was able to fix it myself. How can I change the Bluemix documentation? How do I submit feedback and get the docs fixed?

Answer 1

Changing the documentation is possible in two ways:

1. On the right side of each page of the Bluemix documentation (available at e.g. https://www.eu-gb.bluemix.net/docs/ and other regions) is a Feedback button. Click it and you are able to select whether it is general feedback or specific to parts of that page. If you choose specific feedback you could then pick the region of that documentation that needs an update or you would like to submit a comment on. A form is presented where you can leave your feedback. For "general feedback" you are first presented with an emoticon. After picking how you like the documentation a form appears where you can type in your comments and categorize them.

2. Another form of documentation enhancement is possible by submitting changes directly against the Bluemix documentation hosted on github. Fork the documentation, edit the files you want and submit a pull request for your changes to be merged back into the documentation.

Answer 2

You should see a "Feedback" label on the right in each page of the Docs. Clicking on it you will be able to submit a feedback on the specific page or the Bluemix Docs in general. You can also insert your comments on the possible errors.
