Understanding Suggested Macros in Zendesk

Learn about suggested macros in Zendesk, how they work, and how they can improve ticket resolution efficiency.

What are suggested macros in Zendesk?

Suggested macros in Zendesk are shared macros that appear as suggestions based on past usage. They help agents find relevant macros that were applied to similar tickets within the last nine months, improving ticket resolution efficiency.

These suggestions are generated using machine learning, which analyzes the subject and first comment of a ticket and compares them to previous tickets where macros were used. Only shared macros that an agent has access to are suggested, and personal macros are never included.Learn more.
