Changing Agent Access Settings for Zendesk Tickets

Learn how to change agent access settings for requested tickets in Zendesk, with automatic rollout for Enterprise accounts.

What should I do if I want to change agent access settings for requested tickets?

If you want to change the current settings for agent access to tickets they request, you don't need to do anything immediately as the change is automatically rolled out to all Enterprise and Enterprise Plus accounts.

However, if you wish to adjust these settings, you can refer to the Zendesk guide on restricting agent access to private comments in tickets they request. This will help you customize the level of access agents have to tickets they submit.
