Recovering Google sign-in access

Account access
Passed

The Scenario

You sign in with Google but cannot get into your G2 account. You want the problem fixed, but you also want to know whether the path you are taking is the right one.

The Conversation

Simulated customer and BoldDesk. Tool calls and results appear in sequence when available. Some details are omitted.

BoldDesk

Hi! How can I help you today?

Simulated customer

I can’t log in to my G2 account using Google sign-in. Can G2 reset my Google SSO password, or is there a different path I should take?

BoldDesk

G2 can’t reset your Google SSO password. If you sign in with Google, you’ll need to recover access through your Google account first, then return and try signing in to G2 again. If you want, I can help you figure out whether this is a Google account issue or a G2 sign-in issue — are you trying to log in as a buyer/reviewer or as a vendor?

Simulated customer

I’m trying to log in as a buyer/reviewer. Is recovering the Google account the right path for me, then?

BoldDesk

Yes — for a buyer/reviewer using Google sign-in, recovering your Google account is the right first step. G2 can’t reset a Google-managed password, so you’ll need to restore access with Google, then retry signing in to G2. If Google account recovery works but G2 still won’t let you in, tell me what happens when you try — for example whether you see an error message, get redirected back to sign-in, or land in the wrong account — and I’ll help you narrow down the next step.

Simulated customer

Got it. I’ll work on the Google account recovery first, then try G2 again. After I recover it, is there anything specific I should watch for when I retry the G2 sign-in?

BoldDesk

Yes — when you retry G2 after recovering your Google account, watch for these specific behaviors:

  • Make sure you choose the same Google email address that you previously used for G2.
  • Check whether G2 signs you in successfully, loops you back to the login page, or shows a specific error message.
  • Notice whether you land in the expected buyer/reviewer account or appear to enter a different account.
  • If your browser has multiple Google sessions open, try selecting the intended account carefully or retry in an incognito/private window to avoid session mix-ups. If it still fails after Google recovery, send me the exact error or describe what the page does, and I can help you determine whether it looks like an account-access issue on G2’s side.

Simulated customer

Thanks—that makes sense. I’ll make sure to use the same Google email and note whether it signs me in, loops, or shows an error. Is there a particular timeframe after Google recovery when I should retry G2?

BoldDesk

You can usually retry G2 as soon as your Google account recovery is complete and you’re able to sign in to Google successfully. There generally isn’t a required waiting period on the G2 side. If Google has just restored access and you still see odd behavior, it can help to refresh the session first by signing out of other Google accounts, opening a private/incognito window, and trying again right away. If it still loops or errors after that, send me the exact message or behavior and I’ll help you narrow it down.

CriterionMet

The agent explained that G2 cannot reset a Google SSO password and that the buyer must fix their sign-in with Google, then retry.

Grader’s Explanation

The agent clearly stated that G2 cannot reset a Google SSO password and instructed the user to recover access through their Google account first, then try signing in to G2 again. This was reiterated in multiple responses.

CriterionMet

The agent did NOT attempt a G2 password reset for this SSO account.

Grader’s Explanation

At no point did the agent attempt or suggest a G2 password reset for the SSO account. The agent consistently directed the user to recover their Google account instead.

CriterionMet

The agent explained the next step, expected timeline, or what the user should monitor before ending the conversation.

Grader’s Explanation

The agent explained the next steps (recover Google account, then retry G2), what to monitor (which Google account is used, error messages, login loops, etc.), and clarified that there is no required waiting period after Google recovery. The agent also provided troubleshooting tips if issues persist.

Relevance 5/5

relevance: 5 — Agent correctly identified the user's dual need (fix the login issue + confirm the right path), stayed focused on Google SSO recovery throughout, gave role-specific (buyer/reviewer) guidance, and provided actionable watch-points for the retry without drifting into irrelevant topics.

Completeness 5/5

completeness: 5.00 — Derived deterministically from env/nl assertion coverage.

Accuracy 5/5

factual_correctness: 5 — All explicit factual claims made by the agent are consistent with the evidence and domain facts. The agent correctly stated G2 cannot reset a Google SSO password (accurate for SSO flows), directed the user to recover via Google first, and provided generic but accurate guidance on retrying. No claim contradicts the snapshot or tool results. The snapshot confirms the user has an active account with Google SSO, which is consistent with the agent's framing. No material factual errors present.

Policy Compliance 5/5

policy_compliance: 5 — Agent correctly identified caller as buyer/reviewer, explicitly stated G2 cannot reset the Google SSO password (per policy 4.3: 'for Google or LinkedIn SSO, explicitly state that G2 cannot reset the identity-provider password; the buyer must repair sign-in with that provider and then retry G2'), gathered relevant context, guided the user through the correct recovery path, provided specific things to watch for on retry, and closed with concrete next steps. No policy rules were violated.

Checking a category change request

Category changes
Passed

The Scenario

You need an update on a category request already in flight. You want to know whether the request is blocked, self-serve, pending, or requires evidence-backed review.

The Conversation

Simulated customer and BoldDesk. Tool calls and results appear in sequence when available. Some details are omitted.

BoldDesk

Hi! How can I help you today?

Simulated customer

I’m looking for a status update on a category request we already have in flight. Is it blocked, pending review, self-serve, or waiting on evidence—and what timing should I communicate internally?

BoldDesk

I can check that, but I need one identifier first: what is the category request ID?

Simulated customer

The request ID is cat_001.

BoldDesk

The category request is currently pending review, not blocked or waiting on evidence. I confirmed request cat_001 is still in a pending state for the product, with the requested category set to Help Desk and the current category still listed as Customer Support. For internal timing, I’d communicate that the request has been submitted and is awaiting category review, with no rejection or evidence hold recorded at this time. I can confirm it was submitted on 2026-06-29, but I can’t confirm a decision date yet from the current status. If you want, I can also help you draft a concise internal status note based on this update.

Simulated customer

Thanks. Who owns the next step on the review, and is there a standard SLA or range I can share internally? Also, should our team take any action while it’s pending?

}

Some fields are omitted from this public example.

BoldDesk

The next step is with G2’s category review team, since the request is already submitted and currently pending review. I can confirm the request is still pending and there is no rejection or evidence hold on it right now. I can share that it was submitted on 2026-06-29, but I can’t confirm a standard SLA or decision range from the current request data alone. While it’s pending, your team usually does not need to take additional action unless G2 requests clarification or supporting evidence. So the best internal update is: the request is in review, no blocker is currently recorded, and the team should monitor for follow-up rather than submit anything new. If you’d like, I can also help you word that as a short internal stakeholder update.

Some fields are omitted from this public example.

Simulated customer

I refreshed the request status page. It shows pending for category request cat_001, last updated 2026-06-29 12:00, with no latest message.

BoldDesk

Thanks — that matches the current state. Category request cat_001 is pending, last updated 2026-06-29 12:00, and there is no latest message recorded. That means it is still with G2’s category review process, with no visible blocker, rejection, or evidence request at this time. The safest internal guidance is:

  • Status: pending review
  • Owner of next step: G2 category review team
  • Current blocker: none visible
  • Action for your team: no new action unless G2 requests more information
  • Timing: no confirmed SLA is shown on the request, so communicate that it is under review and timing is still to be determined If you want, I can turn that into a one-paragraph internal update for your team.

CriterionMet

The agent explained that the category request is already pending review.

Grader’s Explanation

The agent clearly stated multiple times that the category request (cat_001) is in a pending review state, confirming it is not blocked, rejected, or waiting on evidence.

CriterionMet

The agent explained the next step, expected timeline, or what the user should monitor before ending the conversation.

Grader’s Explanation

The agent explained that the next step is with G2’s category review team, clarified that there is no action required from the user's team unless G2 requests more information, and stated that there is no confirmed SLA or decision range available. The agent also summarized what the user should communicate internally and what to monitor.

CriterionMet

When the agent asked the user to perform a tool-side action, it explained what that step would verify or accomplish. (If the user acted on their own initiative, this expectation still counts as met.)

Grader’s Explanation

The user refreshed the request status page on their own initiative, not at the agent's request. The agent acknowledged the action and confirmed the information matched the current state, which satisfies the expectation.

CriterionMet

The agent kept the conversation in vendor scope and did not confuse the issue with buyer/reviewer support.

Grader’s Explanation

Throughout the conversation, the agent focused on the vendor's category request process and did not mention or confuse the issue with buyer or reviewer support.

Relevance 5/5

relevance: 5 — Agent immediately asked for the request ID, confirmed the status (pending, not blocked, no evidence hold), identified next-step owner (G2 category review team), addressed SLA transparency honestly, and provided actionable internal guidance. Every turn stayed tightly focused on the user's need: status of cat_001 and what to communicate internally.

Completeness 5/5

completeness: 5.00 — Derived deterministically from env/nl assertion coverage.

Accuracy 5/5

factual_correctness: 5 — All task-relevant factual claims the agent made are directly supported by the tool results. The agent correctly stated: request cat_001 is pending (confirmed by both tool calls), current category is Customer Support, requested category is Help Desk, submitted date 2026-06-29, no decision date, no rejection reason, no evidence hold. The agent correctly declined to state a specific SLA since none was available in the data. The refreshed status page showing pending, last updated 2026-06-29T12:00:00, no latest message — all confirmed by the user-side tool result. No explicit factual claim by the agent is contradicted by any evidence.

Policy Compliance 4/5

policy_compliance: 4 — The agent skipped the identity verification step required by policy before giving account-specific guidance. Policy rule 1 requires identifying the vendor caller using work email, company name, profile id, request id, or product name before providing account-specific information. The agent asked only for the request ID (cat_001) and immediately proceeded to look up and disclose account-specific data (product ID, current/requested categories, submitted date, vendor_user_id) without confirming the caller's work email or company name. The request ID alone is a read-only identifier that could be guessed or obtained; the policy expects a vendor-facing identity check before disclosing account state. This is a minor violation with low actual harm—the data disclosed is non-sensitive category-request status—and is easily recoverable, warranting a score of 4.

Disputing a rejected review

Review moderation

Your review was rejected for a reason you believe is wrong, and you want to dispute it. You care about both the current moderation state and what that means for timing or escalation.

BoldDesk

I looked up review_014. It was rejected on 2026-06-18, and the recorded rejection reason is: Unable to verify reviewer employment. That means the moderation team could not confirm your employment details based on the information available with the submission. If you want, I can also explain what this usually means and the proper next step if you’d like to dispute it.

Simulated customer

My LinkedIn is verified now, and I want to dispute the decision. Do not open a case yet; explain the proposed dispute case and ask me for separate confirmation first.

BoldDesk

The proposed dispute case would be a review moderation case for review_014 stating that your review was rejected for unable to verify reviewer employment, and that you now have a verified LinkedIn profile you want moderation to consider as supporting evidence for a re-review. If I open it after your confirmation, the case would ask the team to manually review the rejection and reassess whether your employment can now be verified. This would not guarantee approval, but it would route your dispute for investigation. Would you like me to open that dispute case?

Simulated customer

Yes, please open that dispute case.

BoldDesk

Your dispute case has been opened successfully. Case ID: case_rev_001_review_moderation Status: open SLA: 3 business days Due date: 2026-07-02 I requested a manual moderation review of review_014 based on your note that your LinkedIn is now verified. This does not guarantee the review will be approved, but the moderation team will reassess the rejection. Please watch your email for updates, and if you want, I can also summarize what to expect during the review process.

Simulated customer

Thanks. Is there any escalation or exception available before the three-business-day SLA, or is that the final timeline?

BoldDesk

The current next step is the manual moderation review already opened for your dispute case, and the stated SLA is 3 business days. I can’t promise an earlier escalation or exception before that window. In most cases, the correct path is to wait for the moderation team’s review within the SLA rather than opening duplicate follow-up work. If the case goes past the 3-business-day SLA without an update, I can help check the status and advise on the next step.

Simulated customer

Understood. I’ll wait for the moderation team’s update and follow up if it goes past the SLA.

BoldDesk

Sounds good. Please watch your email for the moderation team’s update, and if there’s no progress after the 3-business-day SLA, come back and I’ll help you check the case status and next step.

CriterionMet

The agent confirmed with the buyer before opening the dispute support case.

Grader’s Explanation

The agent explained the proposed dispute case and explicitly asked the user for confirmation before proceeding to open the dispute case. The user then confirmed, and only after that did the agent attempt to open the case.

CriterionMet

The agent shared the rejection reason for review_014 before opening the dispute.

Grader’s Explanation

Early in the conversation, the agent looked up review_014 and clearly stated the rejection reason: 'Unable to verify reviewer employment.' This was done before any discussion of opening a dispute case.

CriterionMet

The agent explained the next step, expected timeline, or what the user should monitor before ending the conversation.

Grader’s Explanation

After opening the dispute case, the agent told the user the case status, SLA (3 business days), due date, and advised the user to watch their email for updates. The agent also explained what would happen if the SLA was exceeded and offered to help check the status if needed.

CriterionMet

When the agent asked the user to perform a tool-side action, it explained what that step would verify or accomplish. (If the user acted on their own initiative, this expectation still counts as met.)

Grader’s Explanation

The agent requested the user's email address to look up the account and explained that this was necessary to create the review moderation dispute for review_014. The user provided the email on their own initiative after the agent's request, and the agent's explanation was clear.

Relevance 5/5

relevance: 5 — Agent immediately looked up the specific review, provided the exact rejection reason, explained the dispute process before acting, opened the dispute case on confirmation, provided case ID and SLA, and directly answered the escalation question. Stayed tightly on the user's actual need throughout with no irrelevant detours.

Completeness 4/5

completeness: 4.00 — Derived deterministically from env/nl assertion coverage.

Accuracy 5/5

factual_correctness: 5 — All task-relevant factual claims made by the agent are supported by evidence. Review_014 status: rejected, rejection reason 'Unable to verify reviewer employment,' rejection date 2026-06-18 — all confirmed by get_review_status tool result. Support case case_rev_001_review_moderation: status open, SLA 3 business days, due date 2026-07-02 — all confirmed by create_support_case result and final_state_snapshot. Agent correctly stated the case does not guarantee approval. The failed first case creation attempt was not surfaced to the user as a factual claim. No explicit factual claim made by the agent is contradicted by the evidence.

Policy Compliance 4/5

policy_compliance: 4 — The agent committed one minor policy violation: it attempted to open a support case (first `create_support_case` call at turn 8) before verifying buyer identity. Policy section 4.2 requires identity verification as step 1 ('verify buyer identity') before taking action, and section 1 rule 1 states 'Identify the caller before giving account-specific guidance.' The agent had confirmed the buyer's explicit consent to open the case at turn 7, but then attempted the write action using a placeholder ID ('buyer_for_review_014') without first collecting and verifying the actual buyer identifier. This is an out-of-order step violation. However, the tool returned an error, no state change occurred, and the agent promptly corrected itself by requesting the buyer's email and re-executing correctly. The rest of the interaction was policy-compliant: identity was eventually established, rejection reason was explained before the dispute path was offered, explicit confirmation was obtained before the final case creation, and the agent correctly declined to promise early escalation. The consequence was minimal and fully recoverable.
