Help CenterTo save you time and streamline your day-to-day support operations, you can set alerts to automatically create tickets for your sites.
Note: To set automated ticket creation on alerts, you'll first have to create an alert threshold profile
It's important to ensure that the alerts you receive are associated with a user (and site). If not, the automated tickets will enter your system as 'Undefined' — meaning you'll have to assign them manually. For a smoother experience, we recommended setting an association from the beginning. There are multiple ways to associate alerts with the correct user/site. We recommend setting a main user for each site. You could also assign each individual user to their device
Once you're done, you're ready to set up automated ticket creation
To set a main user for a site:
1. From Sites (on the sidebar), select your site.
The Site page appears.
2. From the Users tab, select your desired user (or create a new one).
The User page appears.
3. Check the box next to Set as main site contact. Now, all alerts received (and tickets automatically opened) will be assigned to the correct site.
Now you can set up your automated ticket creation
To assign each individual user to their agent/device:
1. From Sites (on the sidebar), select your site.
The Site page appears.
2. From the Users tab, select your desired user (or create a new one).
3. The User page appears. Click Select Agent to assign the user to the preferred agent.
The Select Agent window appears.
4. Select the agent/device from the dropdown menu. Then click Apply.
The user is now assigned to the agent/device.
Now you can set up your automated ticket creation
To set up automated ticket creation:
1. From Admin (on the sidebar), click Alerts.
The Alerts page appears.
2. Toggle on Automated ticket creation.
3. Select your sites from the associated dropdown menus to automatically create tickets from 'Critical' and/or 'Warning' alerts.
3. Click Save.
Nice! Automated ticket creation from alerts is now active for the selected sites.
