Viewing Other Agents' Tickets in Zendesk Guided Mode
Can Guided mode show an agent another agent's assigned tickets?
Yes, Guided mode may show an agent another agent's assigned tickets if the tickets meet all view conditions, agent permission settings, and are not being viewed by another agent.
This can happen because Guided mode operates based on the view's conditions and permissions, which might include tickets assigned to other agents.
