Change Public Comment to Private in Zendesk
How can I change a public comment to a private note in Zendesk?
To change a public comment to a private note in Zendesk, you need to convert it into an internal note. This ensures that only agents can see the comment, and it will no longer be visible to end users.
To do this, open the ticket containing the comment you want to change, click the Events icon to open the ticket events, and then click 'Convert to internal note' under the comment you wish to change. Confirm the conversion when prompted. Remember, once a comment is made private, it cannot be reverted to public. For more details, check theoriginal Zendesk article.
