Support Channel

Troopr HelpDesk lets you set up an employee (customer) support channel (HelpDesk) that automatically syncs employee requests with Jira tickets. The purpose of this channel can be for employees to report IT support requests or any other type of requests, support queries they may have.

Setup a support channel for all teams and request types (#troopr-help) or setup individual support channels for every team (eg: #it-help, #hr-help). Each support channel can be mapped to its relevant corresponding JSM project with default request type. Read more on how to setup default project and request type here. 

There are 2 major ways to enable auto ticket creation in support channels: auto create for every message posted or on emoji action. Read more here
