Channeling major incident management.

Handling major incidents is always a challenge, and could turn out to be a disaster if a business doesn't know the status of an incident. It's also important that any possible workarounds and solutions are quickly and easily shared with end users to avoid repeat and duplicate incidents.

Service desk teams can leverage conversations in Teams to:

Tag relevant and necessary service desk members to get them working on tasks.

Post regular updates about each incident to the members of a channel, including service desk teams and end users.

Search and publish relevant solutions from ServiceDesk Plus.

Handling tickets through chatbots.

Both technicians and end users need various kinds of information about their service desk tickets during the ticket life cycle. The built-in Teams chatbot now allows them to interact with ServiceDesk Plus to fetch information and perform various service desk actions right from within Teams for quicker resolution. Technicians can perform activities like adding notes, approving requests, picking up requests, assigning requests to technicians, and resolving tickets through the actionable cards within the chat window. The list of chatbot commands include:

Select instance: To select the ServiceDesk Plus Cloud instance.

View all requests: To display all open requests that the technician has access to.

View my open requests: To display all open requests that are assigned to the technician.

Pending approvals: To show all the pending approvals associated with the technician, then approve them with another command.

Search request "Search_key": To search a request with keywords.

Create request "subject": To create a new service desk request with the deﬁned subject.
