Start for freeHow to Build a Bug Reporting Portal
Create a user-facing bug reporting portal that routes issues to your engineering team with proper triage fields.
Step-by-step guide
6 steps
- 1
Define your bug report fields
Good bug reports need: title, description of the issue, steps to reproduce, expected behavior, actual behavior, environment (browser, device, OS), severity, and screenshot attachment.
- 2
Describe the portal to Appaca
Tell Appaca: "Build a bug reporting portal with a user-facing form and an internal view. The form captures: title, description, steps to reproduce, environment, severity (low/medium/high/critical). The internal view shows all open bugs with filters for severity, assignee, and status."
- 3
Set up your triage workflow
Create the status flow: Reported → Triaged → Assigned → In Progress → Fixed → Verified → Closed. Add an assignee field to route bugs to the responsible developer.
- 4
Share the reporting link with users
Share the reporting form link in your product, documentation, or customer support channels. Users submit reports directly and they appear in your bug tracker immediately.
- 5
Triage incoming reports daily
Review new bug reports each morning. Assign severity, link to a developer, and set a target sprint. Bugs without triage pile up and get lost.
- 6
Close the feedback loop
When a bug is fixed, update the status and optionally notify the reporter. Closing the loop builds user trust and encourages more reporting.

Frequently asked questions
This is a public-facing bug reporting portal combined with an internal tracker. Users submit reports via a form and your team manages them internally - the two views are connected.
You can add a GitHub or Jira link field to each bug to reference the external ticket where the fix is being tracked.
