Is there a way to create shortcuts without starting a ticket? I would like to go create shortcuts for all the google classroom links we have on repeat tickets without opening a ticket.

Hi,We are still allowing users to send tech support request emails into IIQ. When a new email comes in, for the most part (we do have a few automations based on keywords) it is up to the agent to place the tickets in the right category. However, they often forget and the ticket gets closed out with being filed in the right category. Is it possible to enforce categories before a ticket can be closed? Thank you!

What happened to the activity tracker on my tickets that I am working on? I used to see how long it has been in my que.

Did I miss changes coming to ticket view?Used to see updated on standard ticket viewNow not there 

I am wondering what this option does if you say yes?

Is it possible to have a custom dashboard for different teams/Users?  Can i create it and roll it out to a specific team/User?

How can I limit ticket views to only the person who submitted the ticket and followers. Sometime there is sensitive information in a ticket and any user can keyword search and look at all tickets, even if they didn’t submit the ticket.

Good morning,if I’m sending a plain-text email to IIQ intending it to be a ticket, can I use any kind of markup like HTML or Markdown to dress it up, or will it always come through as plain?Or if I send it as an HTML mail, with that markup come through, or do all email-to-tickets come through plain?Thanks!

Hi,I’m wondering if there is clarification on what the “Is Retired?” field in the Asset Status Details is doing on the system end of things. If “Is Retired?” = Yes, does the system do anything with that information on the back end?  

Is Incident IQ down?  I am experiencing longer than normal load times if the page loads at all. 

I have created a stale ticket rule applying it to in-progress tickets.  I assumed that it would be applied to all tickets under the in-progress status.  However, I ran across a post that stated that it would be applied to any New tickets that had the corresponding status.  Would it be a feature request to have newly created rules applied to the work status of all in-progress tickets?

I created a custom field to determine if the user is insured or has already used a claim. However in order to view it I have to select “Edit User.” Is there a way to remove feilds like “job title” or “supervisor” so that the custom feild will be visible?   

I am looking for a report (or view) that can show me what tickets used specific action.  We have a specific action for when our Chromebooks are sent to Dell for warranty repair.  It also updates the status.  When we get them back the actions are updated (returned to student, etc) and the status changes to resolved. I’m looking for a report or view that can show me which tickets were sent to Dell, either by the action or by the status.  Is that possible?

We recently ran into a situation where a user sent in an event request ticket for two different rooms at two different locations. I’m looking for help on handling the approval chain when that happens. Currently our Events approval chain is structured to first send an Event ticket to the building admin based on the location selected as shown below: Once the building admin approves the ticket, it moves to other departments based on custom fields, for example, IT, like shown below: At the bottom of the rule list, once all necessary departments are notified, we have a rule that resolves the ticket so that the event can be approved:

Good morning, I am trying to export a file for assets that we have in district for auditors however I am running into an issue where it will only export 500 devices out of around 2400. Is there a way around this where I can get all the devices in one export?

Is there a way to embed a google form into a ticket? I have tried placing the embed code into a info custom field as you do HTML, but it will not work. I don’t want to upload a form to iiQ and attach it. We use google forms to collect and store information on who requests specific things.

Is there a script example or have anyone successfully used the api to trigger a ticket creation from a ticket template?I have a ticket template that only requires the ticket creator to type in a student’s ID and the template takes care of the rest. Here is where the student ID would go.  

I created a Ticket for myself, Resolved it, as well, but then I got an email notification saying that the agent was changed to another coworker of mine. I never did that...! How is that possible. If I would get a valid email from one of the iiQ techs , I could sent you the exact ticket scheenshots and the email I received about this matter.  Thank you,  Ben

Over the last few days, whenever I go to assign an asset to a user, I have to do it twice because nothing happens after the first time. I’ve heard from other agents in our organization who are experiencing the same issue. Is anyone else seeing this?

Hi there,I’ve been looking around and trying out the variables mentioned in this KB article: Supported Variable Data Points for Email Notifications | Community (incidentiq.com) However, I’m just trying to create a general salutation in my comments to users like this:“Hi {{Ticket.ForFirstName}},”But either entering it directly into the comment or using a text snippet shortcut doesn’t appear to work. Any advice or help on this would be appreciated, thanks!

In Users Explorer, in a student’s profile, there is a selection, “Internal Comments.”  How can I use this?  I am looking for a way to include student specific notes in Incident IQ.  We use the program to track Chromebooks at a high school and we need the notes option so that we can track things other than fees and fines. 

When a teacher wants to start a ticket and clicks on My Assets on the left side, it shows all the chromebooks and devices assigned to their classroom.  I have had about 5 teachers in the last week tell me that they are unable to click on an individual device listed to start a ticket on it.  Is there a setting we’re missing to have teacher’s be able to add the asset/serial number to their ticket?

We currently run Powerschool and I am sure you are all aware of the situation with them, but I have a feeling in the future we will have to look at potentially switching SIS systems.  I was just wondering if anyone has gone through this before with IIQ and is the process easy?  Anything to look out for with old student/staff profiles already created?  Will the user records/device assignments just merge automatically if we do end up switching?  

As our use of iIQ has evolved, we’ve arrived at a unanimous consensus on our large Tech Team that Parents being able to login to iiQ is a requirement.  So we’ve been starting testing.  Why do we feel this way?  We have a very large # of TK-12 students, mostly remote where the Parent plays a major part of the communication with Tech.Yet, this response has me very concerned about how we would proceed?  SIS created Parents cannot login to iiQ?  Why?  Any other users have comments on this?    

Is there  a way to use a Subtask in a Rule?I’d like to have a Subtask fire off an event/webhook when the Subtask is marked as Complete.Or should I convert that particular Subtask to a Subticket to be able to take advantage of Rules?
