| <h3>Have questions?</h3> |
| |
| <h4>StackOverflow</h4> |
| |
| For usage questions and help (e.g. how to use this Spark API), it is recommended you use the |
| StackOverflow tag <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/apache-spark">`apache-spark`</a> |
| as it is an active forum for Spark users' questions and answers. |
| |
| Some quick tips when using StackOverflow: |
| |
| - Prior to asking submitting questions, please: |
| - Search StackOverflow's |
| <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/apache-spark">`apache-spark`</a> tag to see if |
| your question has already been answered |
| - Search the ASF archive for |
| <a href="https://lists.apache.org/list.html?user@spark.apache.org">user@spark.apache.org</a> |
| - Please follow the StackOverflow <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/help/how-to-ask">code of conduct</a> |
| - Always use the `apache-spark` tag when asking questions |
| - Please also use a secondary tag to specify components so subject matter experts can more easily find them. |
| Examples include: `pyspark`, `spark-dataframe`, `spark-streaming`, `spark-r`, `spark-mllib`, |
| `spark-ml`, `spark-graphx`, `spark-graphframes`, `spark-tensorframes`, etc. |
| - Please do not cross-post between StackOverflow and the mailing lists |
| - No jobs, sales, or solicitation is permitted on StackOverflow |

| <h4>Mailing lists</h4> |
| |
| For broad, opinion based, ask for external resources, debug issues, bugs, contributing to the |
| project, and scenarios, it is recommended you use the user@spark.apache.org mailing list. |
| |
| <ul> |
| <li> |
| <a href="https://lists.apache.org/list.html?user@spark.apache.org">user@spark.apache.org</a> is for usage questions, help, and announcements. |
| <a href="mailto:user-subscribe@spark.apache.org?subject=(send%20this%20email%20to%20subscribe)">(subscribe)</a> |

| Some quick tips when using email: |
| |
| - Prior to asking submitting questions, please: |
| - Search StackOverflow at <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/apache-spark">`apache-spark`</a> |
| to see if your question has already been answered |
| - Search the ASF archive for |
| <a href="https://lists.apache.org/list.html?user@spark.apache.org">user@spark.apache.org</a> |
| - Tagging the subject line of your email will help you get a faster response, e.g. |
| `[Spark SQL]: Does Spark SQL support LEFT SEMI JOIN?` |
| - Tags may help identify a topic by: |
| - Component: Spark Core, Spark SQL, ML, MLlib, GraphFrames, GraphX, TensorFrames, etc |
| - Level: Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced |
| - Scenario: Debug, How-to |
| - For error logs or long code examples, please use <a href="https://gist.github.com/">GitHub gist</a> |
| and include only a few lines of the pertinent code / log within the email. |
| - No jobs, sales, or solicitation is permitted on the Apache Spark mailing lists. |
