Can't Solve Zendesk Ticket? Here's What to Do

Learn what steps to take if you can't mark a Zendesk messaging ticket as Solved due to assignment issues.

What should I do if I can't solve a Zendesk messaging ticket?

If you can't solve a Zendesk messaging ticket, check if you are the ticket assignee. Only the assignee can mark it as Solved.

If you find yourself unable to mark a ticket as Solved, it's likely because you are not the assigned person for that ticket. To resolve this, you can either request the current assignee to mark it as Solved or have the ticket reassigned to you if you are responsible for the conversation. This ensures that the person who has been handling the ticket is the one to close it.
