Reporting on Macro Usage in Zendesk Using Tags
How can I report on macro usage in Zendesk using tags?
To report on macro usage in Zendesk, you can add tags to your macros and then generate reports based on these tags. This method allows you to track how often specific macros are used by analyzing the tags added to tickets when a macro is triggered.
To set this up, first, add tags to your macros by navigating to the Admin Center, selecting Agent workspace > Macros, and then editing or creating a macro. In the Actions section, choose 'Add tags' and input your desired tag. Once your macros are tagged, you can create a report in Zendesk Explore by selecting the Support - Tickets dataset and filtering for your specific tags. This will show you all tickets where the macro was applied. For more detailed steps, check out the originalZendesk help article.
