Using Ticket Tags in Zendesk Automations

Discover how to use ticket tags in Zendesk for macros, triggers, and automations to enhance ticket management.

How can I use ticket tags in macros, triggers, and automations?

Ticket tags in Zendesk can be used to add flexibility to your ticket management by attaching additional data to tickets. These tags can be utilized in automations, macros, and triggers.

For example, you can set up a trigger to add a tag to a ticket based on certain conditions, such as the origin of the ticket. This tag can then be used to create views or as a condition in other automations. Drop-down custom fields also create ticket tags and can be used similarly in business rules.
