Settings
By default, once a ticket has been assigned to an individual in a group, it cannot be reassigned back to the agent's group. You can modify your ticket settings to change this behavior.
To enable tickets to be reassigned back to an agent's original group
- In Admin Center, click
Objects and rules in the sidebar, then select Tickets > Settings.
- In the Assignment section, select Allow re-assignment back to the general group.
- Click Save tab.

My setting in Support is set to re-assign a ticket back to another group. However, I have one group that once a ticket has been assigned, I am not able to re-assign. Do you know why that might be that is only one group that does not allow me to re-assign?
Thank you,
Lara

Hi,
I'm trying do to this in an automated way. This setting is enabled in admin console, but I don't see an option in automation or triggers to do this. My example — If the ticket's assignee hasn't actioned on the open ticket in a number of days, I want the ticket to be re-assigned back to that agent's group so that someone else on the team can pick it up. Is this possible? If not, can we add that feedback? Thanks!
