Troubleshooting Zendesk Trigger for Abandoned Calls

Learn how to troubleshoot and use Automations if your Zendesk trigger for closing abandoned call tickets isn't working.

What should I do if my trigger for closing abandoned call tickets isn't working?

If your trigger isn't working, consider using an Automation instead.

Triggers in Zendesk run when there are updates on tickets and check if certain conditions are met. If your trigger isn't firing, it might be because the ticket's subject changes after creation. As a workaround, use Automations based on tags. Abandoned call tickets often have tags added depending on where the call was abandoned. Check your ticket event logs for these tags and create an Automation to close tickets with those tags.
