Specific Role Access

Hi Team, 

 

Some feedback on publishing from App Builder. When publishing the app, and choosing the specific roles types, it seems that ‘Agent’ is not available in the dropdown. I have tried to reduce and increase my screen size, and scroll in the hope it would appear but seems its not there as an option. I need to navigate to the app settings directly to allow agents access to the app. I have provided the screenshot to indicate. 

 

Thanks

Hi John,
 
The 'Agent' role is considered an individual role rather than a group role. According to our experts, the access roles displayed in the app builder are based on the roles configured under Admin Center > People > Team > Roles, which does not include the Agent role.
 
I hope this clarifies your question!

Thanks Jhan, 

 

Can you confirm if creating a custom role, that this would appear in the dropdown. For example, I want to create a role that only allows access to the app and some other features. This then I assume would appear in the list as an easy fix. 

 

It would be great, a lot easier, and makes sense, to just have agent listed in this dropdown, as currently I still can allow agents access to my app, just not directly from here. 

 

John.

Hi Team!
 
Hope you're doing well and thank you for your cooperation! Creating a new custom role does work. For Enterprise accounts, there isn't a standard agent role, you can create your own Agent role in which you can define which agents can have access to Zendesk features.
