Involving the Right People in Zendesk Change Approval

Identify and involve the necessary groups in the Zendesk change approval process, focusing on simplicity and efficiency.

Who should be involved in the change approval process in Zendesk?

In the change approval process, identify all groups that need to approve a change request. This might include a formal Change Advisory Board (CAB) or specific business and technology approvers. The goal is to keep the process simple, involving as few groups as necessary to streamline approvals and encourage adherence to the process.

Create a new group for each identified group and add potential approvers, who should be Zendesk users with an agent role, to their respective groups.
