A ticket view is a customized table containing tickets that is intended to help you and your agents easily segment, find, track, prioritize, or manage tickets without the need for a manual search. You can define a ticket view based on the properties of a ticket and provide access permissions to the users to view and modify the ticket.

  • Dashboard: Ticket views of this type appear as options in the Select a predefined view field in a ticket dashboard window.
  • List: Ticket views of this type appear as options in the Select a predefined view field on the Tickets tab that appears when you click Ticketing > Tickets on the Configure tab.
