Ticket Automation Example: Add Organization-Specific Troubleshooting Documentation to Tickets
Table of Contents
This document outlines how to create a Ticket Automation you can use to add troubleshooting documentation or knowledgebase articles to tickets for your Technicians, customized to an Organization.
Note: Customers are in the process of being renamed to Organizations, and Contacts to End Users. You may see both in Syncro for the time being.
Step 1: Create a Custom Field for the Organization

Step 2: Create a Ticket Automation Using Template Tags
You can use many types of Ticket Automation types for the Ticket Automation.

When that Condition is met (i.e., there's a ticket with a tag that includes the word “printer”), the Action will be to Add a Private Comment, with the Subject as “Issue”, and the Body referencing the Custom Field you created in Step 1: {{customer_custom_field_printer_troubleshooting_info}}.
Tip: You can even pin the comment for the Technician:
