There are 3 main types of workflows. Here’s how they operate together.

Response

These are workflows you configure that respond to a customer. They only execute if the workflow is matched based on a customer’s first message topic detection.

Triage & tagging

These workflows process every single ticket. Based on a set of rules:

  • Triage will look at all the tag options, and apply one tag based on which matches the most. This is how we triage tickets to the right teams.
  • Tagging will look at all the tag options, and apply as many tags that match. This is how we tag tickets based on category or subject.

Reference material

This uses content from your help center material. If no workflow matches based on a user’s first message, or follow-up questions in a response workflow, we will run the Reference material workflow. You can set how many times the Reference material workflow will attempt to solve a user’s question before escalating if the ticket has not been resolved.
