Close Tickets in Zendesk Minutes After Solving

Understand the limitations of Zendesk automation timing and explore using Triggers for immediate ticket closure.

Is it possible to close tickets in Zendesk minutes after being solved?

In Zendesk, the minimum time for automation to run is 1 hour, so it's not possible to close tickets minutes after being solved using automation. However, you can manually close tickets using Triggers for more immediate actions.

Automations run every hour, but not necessarily at the top of the hour. If you need to close tickets sooner, consider using Triggers, which can be set to perform actions based on specific events or conditions.
