Good Morning ​@JSanic 607fe2f friends  Thank you for your question! Are you referring to adding an external email when working the ticket or cc’ing someone when responding to an iiQ email?

Please let me know. Thank you!

Hi

I am referring to someone being CC’d when submitting a new ticket. I have tried it and it is not adding them as followers unless they are already in the incident IQ system.

@JSanic 607fe2f friends Ah. Gotcha! Unfortunately, cc’ing an external user to a ticket submitted via email will not add them as a follower. 

I would visit our idea exchange and propose this as a new enhancement/idea!

As a work around, you can add the external user inside the ticket via the ‘followers’ tab, and they will become a follower going forward for that ticket.

Thank you!

Love this.  Almost every other system I’ve used allows this.  I know it can be problematic though.  Ideally, best to have configuration settings to limit # and on/off.
