Ticket list (view) based on organization field

Good day everyone,

We have a custom organization field for Customer Success, which is a dropdown of our current Zendesk users (internal).

I want to be able to pull up a view of all tickets with Customer Success = {logged in user} or even a predefined user.

I read this post: https://support.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/204295788-Organization-Custom-Fields-User-Custom-Fields-in-View-configuration-filter?input_string=Ticket%20list%20(view)%20based%20on%20organization%20field but wasn't sure if there was something newer that solved what I'm looking for.

Hi Peter,

Views only look at ticket data so you wouldn't be able to configure this view based on an organization drop-down field. If I'm understanding your workflow correctly, the best option would be to add the Customer Success user as a tag to that organizations profile. Then create a view to show any tickets that contain that specific tag.

When a user from that organization generates a ticket that tag will be applied to their ticket as well and show in in the appropriate view. I realize this may not be scalable but I do hope it helps in some way.

I'll leave this post open in case others users want to jump in an offer up another alternative.

Cheers!

I looked at the Organizational field and it does indeed have a tag associated with that field. Thanks!

We need views with organization fields that we can for example display columns with Organization Region.

(No we don't want to create a view for each Region and use labels as a workaround because if someone removes the label we have a problem.)

I am trying to create a view based on a custom field on the organization record that is synced from Salesforce. The custom field is the organization’s account executive (AE).  The AE’s need to see all their clients ’ opened tickets in one view. I am not sure how I can use tags since the AEs on the organization could change from time to time and when a change occurs, any opened tickets would end up with 2 tags on them.

Note: the custom field is a text field, and from it appears you can not create a tag based on a text field. 

Any ideas would greatly be appreciated!

High level response: 

using an http target you can have a trigger that says

If ticket is created and the Org text field is present

notify target (update many) and include the org field place holder in the payload

-- this should allow for tag creation from a text field

If this sounds like something you would like, please let me know

Thank you @McCabe Tonna, we went ahead and changed the text field to a picklist. Thank you for reaching out, I appreciate it!
