Zendesk Admins Can Now View Personal Macros
What is the new change regarding macro visibility for Zendesk admins?
Zendesk has introduced a new feature that allows admins to view personal macros created by individual users directly in the Admin Center. Previously, admins could only access these macros through the Zendesk API. This change provides a more comprehensive view of all macros within an account, making it easier for admins to manage and optimize macro usage.
With this update, admins can identify useful macros created by agents and clone them for broader use, or spot macros that may not align with brand standards and request changes. This feature is accessible on the Macros page in Admin Center, where a new option, 'Individual Agents,' appears in the availability drop-down. For more details, you can visit theoriginal announcement.
