Enabling automatic ticket creation for advanced AI agents with Zendesk Chat (Legacy)

What's my plan?

Add-on | AI agents - Advanced

Configuring chat channels for advanced AI agents is no longer recommended. Instead, consider configuring messaging channels or configuring email channels.

You can enable automatic ticket creation in Zendesk to meet your escalation needs. By enabling this, chats will turn into a ticket automatically after they ended.

This is useful if you want to make sure there's a record of all incoming chats. However, you should also have a good tagging system to manage the tickets in place.

To do so:

Go to Zendesk Chat > Settings > Account > Zendesk Support (tab)

Automatic ticket creation: set to Automatic

Transcript visibility: set to Private

Ticket assignment: set to Last agent

Click Save
