Understanding Conditional Ticket Fields in Zendesk
What are conditional ticket fields in Zendesk?
Conditional ticket fields in Zendesk allow you to set specific ticket fields as required based on the selection or value of another field. This feature provides flexibility in managing ticket fields across different statuses.
However, there is a limitation: the top-level field in your conditional fields configuration cannot be set as required for all statuses. If you need more control over conditional fields and all ticket statuses, consider using the Ticket Field Manager app for enhanced functionality.
