#Understand how issues are created

Issues are created from the Review workflow:

• A reviewer inspects a conversation in Review and submits feedback.
• When the review is negative, Axiom matches it to an existing issue, If Axiom doesn't find a match, it creates a new issue and adds the reviewed conversation as supporting evidence.
• The Issues page collects those recurring findings so you can manage them as a shared backlog instead of reviewing each conversation in isolation.

To learn how reviewers submit feedback and trigger these issue decisions, see Review conversations.
