Viewing SLA Statuses in Zendesk Ticket Views

Discover how to view SLA statuses in Zendesk ticket views, including badge colors and target details.

How can I view SLA statuses in Zendesk ticket views?

In Zendesk, you can view SLA statuses directly in your ticket views using the SLA and Group SLA view columns. The SLA badge color indicates the time left before a breach: green for more than 15 minutes, amber for less than 15 minutes, and red for a breach. If a ticket has multiple active SLA targets, the soonest expiring target is displayed. Hovering over a ticket in the view will show SLA details if the SLA columns are included.
