Chat not creating a Support ticket

Issue symptoms

A Zendesk Support ticket was not created from a chat. Chat transcript from the interaction cannot be found in the Support interface.

Conditions

• Zendesk Chat and Zendesk Support are integrated for ticket creation.

Cause and resolution

There are many reasons a chat may not create a ticket. 

• The integration between your Support and Chat account may be broken and you may need to reintegrate the two accounts.
• Ticket creation was accidentally turned off and you may need to enable this feature again.
• The end-user from the chat may not have ended the chat yet. 
• For customers on v1 of Chat/Support integration, tickets are created when the chat ends and the end-user has left. 
• Simply wait until the end-user ends the chat to see the Support ticket.
