Public Comments After Downgrading to Light Agent

Find out if public comments remain on tickets after an agent is downgraded to a light agent in Zendesk.

Do public comments remain after downgrading an agent to a light agent?

Yes, public comments made by an agent before being downgraded to a light agent will remain on the tickets. However, once downgraded, the agent will not be able to create new public comments on tickets.

This ensures that any contributions made by the agent are preserved, even if their role changes.
