  1. Getting Started

Your first Inbox & Form

Get started with your first Inbox and Form

The foundation of Suptask consists of Inboxes and Forms, empowering you to set up any kind of ticketing routing that you might need.

Ticket creation with Suptask can support a number of different teams and use cases, for example:

  • Submit an IT issue in the channel #it-helpdesk to the IT team.

  • Have your employees send a request to the IT or HR team.

  • Create a ticket directly from your Direct Message (DM) conversation.

  • Submit tickets from a group chat in Slack.

  • Receive email requests and reply via Slack.

  • Submit internal service orders from the mobile Slack client using Suptask App Home.

  • Receive customer support requests from a Slack Connect channel.


How users will experience Inboxes and Forms

Inboxes and Forms works as top-categories and sub-categories when your users will submit a ticket.

This allow you to set up a journey where users can select:

  1. What Inbox to submit tickets to

  2. And within that Inbox, what Form to select.

See the example below.


Getting Started

After the installation of Suptask, you will automatically be guided to the Setup of Suptask automatically in the Suptask Web App.


Your new Inbox with the Setup wizard

The wizard will walk you through the setup of your first Inbox and Form, making sure that you are onboarded 100% and ready to get started with ticketing on Slack using Suptask.

The wizard will help you set up the following on your new account:

1

New Inbox

A new Inbox with a predefined name or a name of your choice.

2

Connect a Responder channel to the new Inbox

The private channel in Slack for your Agents, which will be connected to your Inbox

3

New Form

A new Form with the type of Form of your choice

4

Custom Fields to your Form

Custom fields that are automatically added to your new Form.

By setting up all of this, you will be ready to submit your first ticket in Slack using Suptask.

You can always customize your Inbox, Forms and Fields after the wixard is completed.

The user have selected the IT Inbox and can then select what Form within that Inbox to submit the ticket with

The Responder channel is connected to your Inbox and is integrated in Slack as a private channel for your Agents.

It comes with several benefits:

  • Agents can leave private comments, search and manage their tickets directly in Slack.

  • Slack & Suptask will automatically send notifications about an updated or new ticket.

  • Users that are invited as a member to this channel will automatically become an Agent.

When a ticket is submitted with a Form, it is routed to the Inbox and will be visible inside of the connected Responder channel in Slack, where Agents receive a notification about the ticket and can start to respond to the ticket.

Inboxes can share the same Responder channel, learn more on how this can be used for access and

multi-level categorization of tickets.
