Support ticket creation

A support form should produce two things at once: a ticket that belongs to a named person, and a confirmation for the customer. This workflow shares tickets between agents in turn so nobody is buried.

The Support ticket creation workflow on the canvas: Support form, then Find the client, then Next agent, then Create ticket, then Confirm

Before you start

  • A website support form that posts to BaseCloud
  • The agents who share tickets
