How The Automation Works

The full workflow, from trigger to completion.

1. Ticket Receivedtrigger

New ticket arrives via email,, or web form. The automation platform detects the incoming message and extracts the raw ticket content.

2. Parse Ticket Content

The automation reads the ticket description, error messages, and metadata. It extracts customer name, product version, environment, error code, and reproduction steps.

3. Classify Type & Severity

The automation applies trained rules to classify the ticket as Bug, Support, Feature Request, or Infrastructure. It assigns a severity level (Critical, High, Medium, Low) based on keywords, impact signals, and business rules.

4. Is Severity Critical or High?

The automation checks if the ticket is marked Critical or High. If yes, it routes to the on-call developer immediately. If no, it proceeds to standard assignment.

5. Route to Team Queue

Based on ticket type and severity, the automation assigns the ticket to the correct queue (Backend, Frontend, DevOps, Support) or to a specific developer.

6. Send Customer Acknowledgment

The automation sends an email or message to the customer confirming receipt and providing an expected response time based on severity level.

7. Log Ticket Metadata

The automation records ticket ID, type, severity, assignee, timestamp, and SLA deadline and for tracking and reporting.

8. Notify Assigned Team
