Take action on tickets in bulkUpdated 32 minutes ago

You can use bulk actions to take the same action on multiple tickets at once. You can take the following ticket actions in bulk:


Requirements

  • Bulk actions are available on all Helpdesk plans
  • Everyone (except Observers) can change the ticket status, assign tickets, apply macros, mark tickets read or change priority in bulk
  • Only Lead agents and Admins can export and delete tickets in bulk


Apply bulk actions

You can apply bulk actions on as many tickets as you'd like, however it will take longer to complete bulk actions on higher numbers of tickets — It takes us approximately one minute to process 100 tickets. Once you start a bulk action in your Helpdesk, you won't be able to run a new one until the current one is complete.

Tip: If you've opened a Ticket View in the ticket panel, click the three dots icon and select an action to apply it in bulk.
