Deskpro Horizon Release 2023.19

Authors list

We’re pleased to announce the release of Deskpro Horizon, version 2023.19. This release includes several new features our team has been developing, general improvements to product functionality and interface, and several bug fixes.


New Features

✨ You can now minimize and expand the Ticket Reply box

We have improved the behavior of the ticket reply box by adding an icon that will let you expand or minimize the reply box once it has been activated (SC 108563).

This change was made based on feedback we have received where the reply box expanding would cover too much of the ticket and made looking back on the thread for information difficult. This update will provide greater visibility for the ticket thread making it easier for agents to reply to tickets quickly.

✨ We’ve expanded the types of objects you can search for by ID to no longer just include Tickets and Users (SC 97526). You can now search for the following items by ID:

  • Organization

  • Knowledgebase Article

  • News Post

  • Guide Pages

  • Files

  • Community Topics


Latest Improvements

💅 We have improved the behavior of the Ticket Preview menu so now when you open a ticket it will not remain open (SC 109272).

💅 We’ve enhanced our Download Email function to ensure that agents can download a .eml file and that the file name will be relevant to the ticket (SC 93751).

💅 We’ve added a standalone ticket rating page for instances where Helpcenter access is restricted (SC 109407).

💅 We have added handling to ensure that if an Admin accidentally removes their permissions to view helpdesk components such as Ticket, CRM, or Help Center they will be redirected to the Admin interface to restore their permissions and avoid causing errors in the helpdesk (SC 101044).

🐛 Fixed a bug where editing a ticket note would occasionally turn it into a ticket message (SC 110125).

🐛 We made a fix to improve the slowness that customers were experiencing with opening, closing, and loading tickets. And where having more than 5 tickets open would freezes the page (SC 107595).
