Why Triggers Don't Fire for CC'd Users in Zendesk

Learn why triggers may not fire for CC'd users in Zendesk. Understand email suppression to prevent duplicate notifications.

Why didn't a trigger fire for a CC'd user in Zendesk?

Triggers may not fire for CC'd users if they are recipients of the email that updated the ticket. This is to prevent them from receiving multiple notifications for the same update. If a user is CC'd or in the 'To' field of the original email, any trigger notification for that update is suppressed because they already received the message in their inbox.

To verify if this suppression occurred, you can use the Zendesk API. Access the ticket's audit log athttps://{your subdomain}.zendesk.com/api/v2/tickets/{ticket number}/audits.jsonand look for thenotifications_suppressed_forfield. This will confirm if the trigger was intentionally suppressed for that user. For more details, you can refer to theoriginal help article.
