Hello!

We’ve started to have some confusion on what comments are visible to who in IIQ. We tend to add several followers to many tickets, including other agents, and external email addresses(to communicate to parents). I’m not 100% certain who can see comments when the comment is set to “Not visible to requestor”. 

Do all Followers see it? Is it truly just the requestor that doesn’t see it?

Is it just Agents that are followers that can see comments set like this?

Does anyone have any ideas? 

Thanks!

I believe only other agents are able to see “private” comments.

@Jim.Sch is correct.

One this to note, if you reply to the comment address by email, the comment is make public.

Hello, I have a related question to this, is it possible to give permissions to read "private" comments to non-agents through permissions? Does "view" ticket permissions give access to whoever has the permission to read "private" comments?

@KLara 6634251 buhsd When a comment is marked “not visible to requestor”, iiQ admins and agents can see the comment within the ticket. The permission for that is based on the role.
