What is the Entity detection EAP?

The entity detection feature allows you to define and detect unique information in tickets and messaging conversations. You can then use that information to populate associated custom ticket fields and power automated workflows and reports.


Entity detection is similar to intelligent triage in that it allows you to automate workflows based on information automatically detected within customer requests.

 

The way it works

When you create an entity custom field, the system adds that field to your tickets. The field is populated via ticket updates based on the entity value detected in the ticket. 

 

When the field is populated, a tag is also automatically added to the ticket to help you build triggers, automations, and reporting. These tags reflect the entity values you configure.

+1 it would be good to use entity detection to detect Regex situations: 

 

Example - 

  • Client needs to detect a 6-digit unique system ID
  • Current functionality of Entity detection works on dropdown-type Ticket Fields, but dropdown can only have up to 2,000 options.  So if there are more than 2,000 unique system IDs, then dropdown-type Ticket Field isn't usable
  • Instead, it would be better to have Regex detection (layered with AI) to identify 6-digit strings. This is currently possible in other 3rd-party apps in the Zendesk marketplace
