Routing with Move & Escalate

Learn how to move a ticket to another Inbox

Overview

Tickets can be moved by Agents from the origin Inbox to another Inbox.

There are several benefits of using the Move & Escalate feature:

  • Move the ticket as it was submitted to the wrong Inbox

  • Move the ticket to another team Inbox as it needs to be escalated

  • Contain the replies on the ticket for the new team to review

  • Create a new ticket and reference it automatically to the origin ticket

  1. As an Agent, open a ticket.

  2. Press on the More options action button (with the three dots).

    1. Fields from your original Form to the new selected one will be auto-mapped. Any mismatches will be highlighted.

Move a Public Ticket to Private

Overview

When a sensitive topic comes in through a public channel, you can move the ticket into a private DM - keeping the conversation discreet without any manual workarounds.

This is useful for situations such as HR requests, personal issues, or any topic that shouldn't remain visible in a shared channel.


How to Move a Ticket to Private

  1. Open the ticket in Slack

  2. Select the More options menu (three dots ···)

  3. Click Move & Escalate

  4. Choose to the Form which is configured to be Private

The ticket will be routed out of the public channel and into a private conversation with the Requester.

Requesters can still submit tickets through any public channel. You can move the ticket private at any point after it has been created.
