Product Feedback: Limit Agent Macro Permissions
Not Planned
Posted Oct 11, 2023
We have noticed that agents can currently include critical actions in their personal macros such as "Add / Remove Tags" which could potentially impact the set up of the instance and cause incorrect ticket routing.
We would like to suggest the implementation to limit what actions agents can include in their macros.
We do not want to disable them from creating their personal macros and cause an inconvenience, so please look into adding this functionality.
Thank you!

I WOULD LOVE THIS!!! So many fields/options I would disable for Agents in macros, probably by their group and/or role! Great suggestion.

Our use-case is that agents and other team members need to be able to create their own macros or edit existing macros, but since they're not admins and are not aware about set up logic inlcuding different tags on the tickets - it happens quite often that someone is adding/removing ticket tag via macro and then we have bunch of tickets not visible in any of the views created for team members. In this case ZD Admin team need to waste manual efforts in localizing this ticket, understanding root cause and trying to fix it.
That's why to have ability to control what each role can use as actions in macros would be beneficial for us.

Thank you everyone for continuing to share your needs for this. Unfortunately, this is not on currently on our roadmap, so I will mark the status of this as Not Planned, for now.
Improvements to Macro functionality and the management of them is something we'd like to prioritize in the future, and the more customer demand there is, the better so please keep commenting and upvoting on the requests you care about. We do have a lot of awesome product enhancements planned for 2024, and if you're not already following our what's new section I recommend you do so to get alerted as we release them.

Just curious, wouldn't removing an agent's ability to modify tags via custom role also prevent them from being able to modify tags via macro? I haven't tried it out myself, so I'm not sure how it would actually play out.
