Recover Suspended Ticket with Only Attachments

Understand why tickets with only attachments can't be recovered and how to prevent it.

Why can't I recover a suspended ticket that only has attachments?

Zendesk cannot recover suspended tickets that contain only attachments without any text. This is because the system requires some text content to process the ticket. To avoid this issue, ensure that users include text or a follow-up explanation when submitting requests.

Reviewing and updating your submission process can help prevent such suspensions in the future.
