Liquid markup

Liquid markup is the templating language we use to enable placeholders

( Using placeholders )

. You can also use Liquid markup to customize how this

data is selected and displayed as output in ticket comments and email

notifications. For more information, see

Using Liquid markup to customize comments and email notifications .

Macro

A macro is a prepared response or action that agents can use to quickly

respond to support requests that can be answered with a standard response

or to modify a ticket. Macros contain actions, which can be updates to ticket

properties. Agents manually apply macros when they are creating or updating

tickets. Macros can also be organized into categories to help agents quickly

locate them. For more information, se

e Creating ticket handling shortcuts with macros .

Multiple brand

help desk

In the Enterprise version of Zendesk, you can manage support for multiple

brands by linking separate branded help desks to a central help desk.

Support requests are received by the branded help desks and are

automatically shared to the central help desk, which contains the support

agents who resolve the requests. One team of agents supports all of your

brands. For more information, see

Setting up to manage multiple brand help desks .

Non-restricted

agents

A non-restricted agent is an agent who has access to all tickets. In other

words, they have not been restricted to only the group or groups to which

they belong, the organization they belong to, or to the tickets they have been

assigned to. The ability to refer to these agents may be useful when creating

triggers.

Operator

An operator is sometimes used to refer to an agent. This term has been

deprecated. Please use agent instead.

Organization

Organizations are collections of users (agents and end-users). How you set

up your organizations is entirely up to you. Agents and end-users can be

added to only one organization. Once you create them, you can use

organizations throughout the help desk to define views, as criteria for

assigning tickets, as conditions in automations and triggers, to define access

to forums, and in your reports. For more information, se

e About organizations and groups

an

d Creating, managing, and using organizations .

Owner

The account owner is a type of admin. The account name is associated with

this person's name, usually the person who created the account. There can

only be one account owner; however, account ownership can be reassigned

by the account owner to another admin if needed. The account owner has

access to areas of the help desk that other admins do not, such as invoicing,

payment options, and benchmarking for the account. For more information

about user roles, se

e Understanding help desk user roles .

Placeholders

Placeholders are references to ticket and user data that you include in the

subject and text of email notifications. Without placeholders it would be

impossible to create automatic notifications. You'd have to manually enter

this data for each ticket. Placeholders are contained in double curly brackets,

like this: {{ticket.assignee.name}}. You can view the list of available system

placeholders in the help desk when creating macros (for example). Custom

fields can also be referenced as placeholders. For more information, see

Using placeholders .

Priority

Each ticket is assigned a priority. There are four values for priority: Low,

Normal, High, and Urgent. The ticket priority is used throughout the help desk

to generate views and reports and it's also used as conditions and actions in

automations and triggers and as actions in macros.

Remote

authentication

Remote authentication is one of the two Single Sign-On services available in

Zendesk. The other is SAML. See Single Sign-On.
