Enhancements to Ticket Updation Automation

Stay updated on customer issues with better context with this enhancement. You can set up automation rules so that new tickets will be created whenever a customer responds to resolved or closed tickets. Earlier, this was handled using web hooks and support team involvement which lead to missed context.
