Intelligent triageuses AI to automatically classify new customer support tickets by topic, sentiment, language, and entities, such as product names. When intelligent triage is turned on, the system automatically fills out the topic, sentiment, and language fields, but admins can control whether the fields are displayed and editable for agents.

What's my plan?
Add-on Copilot

Summary: ◀▼

You can control whether intelligent triage fields like topic, sentiment, and language appear in ticket forms and whether agents can update them. With one ticket form, the fields are shown by default unless you remove them; with multiple forms, you add the fields you want visible. This lets you support manual corrections, reporting, and API use, and helps you spot classification trends.

Intelligent triage classifications are available on Suite and Support Professional plans and above. Using them in workflows requires the Copilot add-on.

Intelligent triage uses AI to automatically classify new customer support tickets by topic, sentiment, language, and entities, such as product names. When intelligent triage is turned on, the system automatically fills out the topic, sentiment, and language fields, but admins can control whether the fields are displayed and editable for agents.

This article describes how to control agent access to auto-filled intelligent triage fields within ticket forms, allowing for manual updates if needed. To configure which intelligent triage classifications are shown to agents in the ticket header, see Configuring intelligent triage settings.

Whether the fields appear by default depends on your ticket forms. Specifically:

  • If you have a single ticket form, the intelligent triage fields are automatically visible in tickets.

    Edit your ticket form to remove the new fields if you don’t want agents to be able to see and change these fields in tickets.

  • If you have multiple ticket forms, the intelligent triage fields are not automatically visible in tickets. You can edit your forms by adding the fields so that agents can see and update them in tickets.

    Any entities you created must also have their custom fields added to your forms.

Note: If you want to use the intelligent triage field values only for reporting or API use, you don’t need to add them to any ticket forms.

When the topic, sentiment, and language fields are displayed to agents, they can update the values in the fields if they feel they're not correct. You can report on agents' manual updates to the intelligent triage classification fields, which helps you discover trends in the types of tickets where intelligent triage isn't correctly classifying the topic, sentiment, or language.

To add or remove intelligent triage fields in tickets
  1. In Admin Center, click Objects and rules in the sidebar, then select Tickets > Forms.
  2. Follow one of the options below:
    • For a single ticket form, open the ticket form for editing, then click the x on the field you want to remove. You can drag a field onto the ticket form if you want to add it back.
