Using a Template
Step 1: Select and Create
Browse the template cards and click Use Template on an importable card. The builder opens with pre-configured nodes.
Step 2: Review
Check trigger, conditions, and actions match your needs.
Step 3: Customize
- Adjust thresholds and keywords
- Update assignees and channels
- Add or remove nodes
Step 4: Connect Platforms
If an importable template lists a required connector:
- Go to the top-level Integrations page.
- Follow the setup for that platform. The current WordPress setup is the WordPress connection; other connector catalogues are unavailable in this release.
- Return to the template and select the connected platform in action config.
No importable system template currently requires a connector. Available cards with no required connectors remain importable. The current gallery includes VIP Customer Priority Routing and Negative Sentiment Escalation. If a card offered in the gallery requires a connector that is unavailable, that card remains visible but its button is disabled and says Not available yet. SLA Breach Prevention, After-Hours Auto-Response, and Shopify Order Issue Handler remain listed for seed and release transparency, but are retired and not shown in the gallery.
Step 5: Test
- Set trigger to
manual - Run with test ticket
- Restore original trigger
Step 6: Activate
Click Activate to enable.
Required Connectors
The seed data declares Slack for SLA Breach Prevention and Shopify for Shopify Order Issue Handler; both are retired and not shown in the current gallery. VIP Customer Priority Routing, Negative Sentiment Escalation, and After-Hours Auto-Response declare no required connector. After-Hours Auto-Response remains retired while its generated reply text is being proven. No importable system template currently needs a connector; check each template row for its release status.
Template Variables
The retired SLA Breach Prevention seed exposes a configurable variable:
| Variable | Description |
|---|---|
slack_channel | Slack channel to send SLA alerts to (default support-alerts) |
