The problem

“As ticket volumes grow, finding and grouping related issues becomes a challenge. Without a clear labeling system, tickets get lost, patterns go unnoticed, and reporting becomes guesswork. Ticket Tags give your team a simple yet powerful way to label, filter, and track tickets turning chaos into clarity.”

Ticket Tags are a powerful way of labeling and grouping tickets. Use them for queue and filter conditions, automation workflows, and generating reports—all from a simple tagging system.

Frequently asked questions.

What are Ticket Tags?

Ticket Tags are labels you can add to tickets to categorize, group, and identify them easily. They help organize your support queue and can be used for filtering tickets, setting up automation workflows, and generating reports.

How can I add tags to a ticket?

There are three ways to add tags: manually from the ticket details page, automatically through canned actions when agents apply pre-saved responses, or through Smart Rules that tag tickets based on predefined conditions.

What tag management options are available?

You have full control over your tags. You can create new tags, rename existing ones for better clarity, merge duplicate tags to consolidate your tagging system, detach tags from specific tickets, or delete tags that are no longer needed.

Can tags be used in automation workflows?

Yes! Tags can be used as conditions in Smart Rules and automation workflows. You can trigger specific actions based on whether a ticket has certain tags, making your automations more precise and powerful.

Who can create and manage tags?

Tag management is typically controlled through role-based permissions. Administrators can configure which team members have the ability to create new tags, add existing tags to tickets, or remove tags. This ensures your tagging system stays organized and consistent while giving the right people the access they need.
