We are starting to use the Watcher functionality within our support workflow.  Recently, we noticed an issue when after Watcher set an out-of-office message.  


Any time we update the ticket in a way that triggers an email, their out-of-office message is added to the ticket as a Public Note.  This should really be added as a private note.


Has anyone else noticed this issue?  


We are looking to manage internally based on how the out of office is created, but would like to an update on the Freshdesk side.

I just noticed this today and I thought it was new. Apparently not? I would really like the option to disable this. I don't know how others use "Watcher," but in our helpdesk, it only matters whether the ASSIGNED AGENT is available or not. I could care less if someone watching the ticket is on vacation.


Hello All,


Thanks for your suggestion.


At the moment this wouldn't be possible but we are happy to explore the possibilities of this feature being picked up. You can follow this space for any updates on the new features/enhancements from us. 


Cheers!
