How to Share a Ticket

The share ticket feature allows tickets to be shared and accessible to an agent or group. Using this feature collaboration with cross-departmental teams can be done. When you share a ticket with a specific agent or group, that agent or group gains full access to that ticket, even if their access was restricted due to the brand access restriction or has a restricted group ticket access scope.

Consider a ticket created for the accounts team that requires the intervention of the HR team, as an example. This feature helps the accounts team member to share a ticket with the HR team, even if the HR team have no access to the ticket. Using this multiple internal teams can collaborate and resolve issues faster.
