For support leads who ask their AI assistant which open tickets in a group to work first.

Connector
Connect Freshdesk, pick your AI tool and paste the prompt.
The problem
Whatever sits at the top of the queue gets worked first
Support leads scan the Freshdesk queue by hand and tend to work whatever is at the top. Escalated, urgent or overdue tickets, and tickets nobody owns, sit unnoticed until the customer chases.
Without PopdockAI
- Scroll the queue for escalations
- Sort by priority and check due dates
- Look for tickets with no assignee
- Work the top of the list anyway
With PopdockAI
- The group is resolved, stopping if the name is unclear
- Open tickets are ranked by escalation, priority and age
- Unassigned and overdue or nearly due tickets are flagged
- The top five come with reasons, and nothing is changed
The prompt
Use this prompt
Copy it into any AI tool connected to PopdockAI. Swap the values in braces for your own.
**Objective:** Triage the open tickets for the group named {group-name} (if empty, all groups) and recommend the order to work them, looking at no more than {max-tickets} tickets (default 50).
**Step 1: Resolve the group**
If {group-name} is not empty, call `freshdesk-get-groups` filtered by `name.contains`. If it matches more than one group, list the matches and stop. If it matches none, say so and stop.
**Step 2: Pull the open tickets**
Call `freshdesk-get-tickets` filtered by the group's `group-id` (omit the filter for all groups) and status Open, with `max-records` set to the limit. Check the values the `status` field actually returns before filtering, because the filter is an exact match.
**Step 3: Rank**
* Escalated tickets first, then by priority (Urgent, High, Medium, Low), then by oldest `created-at`
* Flag tickets with no `responder-id` as unassigned
* Flag tickets whose `due-by` has passed or falls within 24 hours
**Step 4: Report**
A table of rank, ticket id, subject, requester, priority, age in days, assignee, flags. Finish with the top 5 to work first and one line of reasoning each.
**Rules & Guidelines:**
* Never call any write tool: `freshdesk-add-ticket`, `freshdesk-update-ticket`, `freshdesk-delete-ticket`, `freshdesk-add-ticket-note`, `freshdesk-reply-to-ticket`, `freshdesk-add-contact`, `freshdesk-update-contact`, `freshdesk-delete-contact`, `freshdesk-add-company`, `freshdesk-update-company`, `freshdesk-delete-company`, `freshdesk-add-group`, `freshdesk-update-group`, `freshdesk-delete-group`, `freshdesk-add-time-entry`, `freshdesk-update-time-entry` or `freshdesk-delete-time-entry`. This job is read-only.
* Report only fields the tools returned.
**Validation:**
* If no open tickets come back, say so and stop.Who it's for
One answer, three teams that use it
Support team leads
Start the day with a work order
A ranked table and the top five with reasons tell your team exactly where to start.
Triage the Tier 1 group's open Freshdesk tickets and give me the top five to work first.
Support agents
Know what to pick up next
Escalated and nearly due tickets are at the top, so you are not caught out by a breach.
Which open Freshdesk tickets across all groups are due in the next 24 hours?
Support managers
Find tickets nobody owns
Unassigned tickets are flagged in the ranking, so they get an owner before they age.
Rank open tickets in the Technical group, limit 50, and flag the unassigned ones.
