Tickets
Manage a repository of all ticketed support cases.
Requires various permissions to view, manage, transfer, export, and download tickets at the individual or team levels.
A ticket is a support case, usually supported by an email thread between a player and a live agent.
An older format for customer support, tickets are still valuable in many contexts. Unlike realtime chats on messaging apps, emails in tickets are asynchronous between a player and a live agent, without AI interaction. For this reason, tickets are typically generated by a live agent for an ongoing issue or to formally conclude a conversation.
