What Are Snippets?

Snippets are saved text blocks that staff can send in a ticket channel with a single command. They eliminate the repetitive typing of common responses: troubleshooting steps, policy explanations, links to documentation, or anything your team sends frequently.

Creating Snippets

Snippets are created in the Snippets tab of the web dashboard. Each snippet requires:

FieldDescription
NameA short identifier used to call the snippet. No spaces. Case-insensitive.
ContentThe full text to be sent, including any formatting, links, or emojis.

Note

Snippet names are case-insensitive. password-reset and Password-Reset refer to the same snippet.

Using Snippets

Inside any ticket channel, staff members run:

/snippet use name:password-reset

The bot sends the snippet content as a message in the channel. Messages are visible to the ticket opener and are included in the transcript.
