Description

Prerequisites
  1. I have searched open and closed issues for duplicates

  2. This isn't a feature request

  3. This is not a report about my app not working as expected

Problem

Due to https://github.com/ProtonMail/WebClients/issues/458#issue-3373395961, I wanted to contact Proton Support via their ZD portal, so I authenticated at protonmail.zendesk.com/auth/v2/login/signin. However, /hc/en-us/requests merely returns:

You're not authorized to access this page

Tasks
  1. File this as a suggestion at protonmail.uservoice.com/#suggestion_title.

  2. Wait for protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/945460-general-ideas/suggestions/50436528 to be implemented, so that this can be filed as a bug via the correct avenue.

Research direction

No repository file or test is named. Start by reviewing the linked WebClients issue 458 and the Proton UserVoice entries referenced in the Tasks section, then verify whether the Zendesk authorization problem belongs in this repository. Done means filing it through the correct support or feedback avenue rather than changing repository code.
