Tickets

How the ticketing system works — viewing, replying, assigning, and snoozing support requests.

Every support request — whether it comes from the chat widget or the contact form — becomes a ticket. Tickets are how your team tracks and resolves customer issues.

Ticket list

Each ticket in the list shows:

  • The customer's email and name
  • A short description of the issue
  • The inbox name
  • When it was created
  • Whether the customer is currently online (green dot)
  • Who is assigned

You can sort by age using the button in the header to toggle between oldest-first and newest-first.

Working on a ticket

Click a ticket to open the detail view. The left side shows the full conversation history and the right side shows customer metadata.

From here you can:

  • Reply — Type a message and click Send. The customer gets an email notification.
  • Send & close — Send a reply and close the ticket in one click.
  • AI-suggested reply — Click the sparkles button to generate a reply based on your knowledge base.
  • Close — Close the ticket without sending a response. The customer is notified that the ticket is closed.

Use the up/down arrows to navigate between your assigned tickets without going back to the list.

Assigning tickets

Unassigned tickets are visible to everyone on the team. To assign a ticket, click the assign button in the ticket list or on the detail page. A searchable list of team members appears — pick someone and the ticket moves to their queue.

You can also unassign a ticket to make it available to the whole team again.

Snoozing tickets

If you cannot deal with a ticket right now, snooze it. Snoozed tickets disappear from the main list and reappear when the snooze expires. The options are:

  • In 1 hour
  • In 4 hours
  • Tomorrow at 9:00 AM
  • Next Monday at 9:00 AM

Snoozed tickets are still accessible in the collapsed "Snoozed tickets" section at the bottom of the inbox.
