How it works

This tool continuously monitors designated Slack channels for new tickets, allowing you to customize priorities based on customer Tier/Plan. If a ticket remains unanswered for a specified duration, it automatically alerts support personnel within the channels. Acknowledgment of tickets is facilitated by responding within the thread with a @mention to the bot, which subsequently delays further communications by 30 minutes.
