Zendesk 'Public by Default' for Mixed Notes Tickets
How will the 'Public by default' setting work for tickets with mixed notes in Zendesk?
For tickets that contain a mix of internal notes and public replies, the 'Public by default' setting will continue to function as it did before. When this setting is enabled, the ticket will open with the composer set to a public channel by default. This ensures that agents can easily continue public conversations on tickets that already have public replies.
The recent update specifically targets tickets with only internal notes, ensuring they default to internal notes to prevent accidental public comments. This change is part of Zendesk's efforts to enhance ticket privacy and align with legacy behaviors.
