Kace Service Desk - Variables - Parentticket

Hello together,

have any a list of all variables for ticketcreate via email.

Many of them are in the documentaion. But i need a variable to set a parentticket.

For example:

My parent-Ticket will send a mail to a queue which open a new ticket. The email contains all  required informations. i need only a variable to set the parentticket in the new ticket too. The parentticket is the ticket which open the new ticket.

 

Thanks a lot for help.

  • I've started a new thread, and in spite of the fact that this is a bit old, I'm hoping you're still around to answer: How'd you do that? I have a rule where a parent ticket sends and email to the queue. The email gets sent, but no ticket gets created. What did I miss?

I have never tried setting the parent via email but the variable should be @parent_id.

Thank you for your help chucksteel.

If a write a mail with @parent_id it fails. But I had solved. A Rule send a mail to a other Queue which adds a new Ticket. The Mail contains following:

@custom_3=$parent_id

Now the Parentticket-ID is in the new Ticket.

The new ticket contains a ticket-rule which make a SQL-Update:

set HD_TICKET.PARENT_ID = HD_TICKET.CUSTOM_FIELD_VALUE2

It works fine!

IMPORTANT TO KNOW:

If you change a customfield via mail the numbers begins at 1

If you change a customfield via SQL the numbers begins at 0

best regards

  • Check the permissions on the Parent Info field, you might need to change it to User Modify in order for it to be set via email. You have a rule working, which is great, but setting it directly via email might be nicer. - chucksteel 10 years ago
    • Yes that was really nicer. If i set this how you describe i doesnt work in the system. :/

      Ideas ? - Johnzko 10 years ago
      • It's possible that some fields just can't be modified with ticket variables. - chucksteel 10 years ago
