Understanding Zendesk's Summarization Feature

Learn how Zendesk's summarization feature helps agents quickly understand ticket history by recapping public comments.

How does the summarization feature in Zendesk work?

The summarization feature in Zendesk provides a quick recap of all public comments on a ticket, helping agents get up to speed efficiently. It excludes internal notes and side conversations, focusing solely on public interactions. This feature is particularly useful for tickets with fewer than 24,000 words and works best once a chat transcript is added to the ticket. Agents can refresh the summary as new comments are added to keep it current.
