Understanding One-Touch Tickets in Zendesk

Find out what qualifies as a one-touch ticket in Zendesk. Learn how public and internal comments affect the one-touch metric.

What is considered a one-touch ticket in Zendesk?

A one-touch ticket in Zendesk is a ticket that is resolved with only one public agent reply. Internal comments do not count towards the one-touch metric.

If a ticket is solved with a single public response and no further public comments are made, it is considered one-touch. Even if the end-user replies with a 'thank you' and no additional public comments are made by the agent, it remains a one-touch ticket. However, if the ticket is reopened and requires another public comment to solve, it becomes a multi-touch ticket.
