Support ticket drafts from a playbook that the owner sends

Pulls open support tickets with each customer's booking history and drafts a reply from a playbook of house rules. The owner approves every reply word for word, and anything about refunds or disputes is marked as the owner's call.

What it does

  • Pulls open tickets through the owner's signed in admin session
  • Adds each customer's booking history
  • Drafts a reply from the playbook and lists the owner action
  • Marks refund and dispute cases as needing an owner decision
  • Flags instructions hidden in customer messages as suspicious

Your approval boundaries

Approval required

These actions always wait for your yes:

  • Sending any reply
  • Any refund, cancellation or booking change

You decide what happens next.

More about this workflow

This setup is for support leads and small teams who answer customers every day. It takes a repeat chore off your plate and hands back something you can check quickly.

First, it pulls open tickets through the owner's signed in admin session. Next, it adds each customer's booking history. Then it drafts a reply from the playbook and lists the owner action. After that, it marks refund and dispute cases as needing an owner decision. Finally, it flags instructions hidden in customer messages as suspicious. It works with your help desk, email and docs, each on its own login with limited access.

You get the prep work done and waiting for you. The agent stops and asks for your yes before sending any reply and any refund, cancellation or booking change, and says plainly if a step cannot be undone.

Run your workflow

Connect your tools with only the access this setup needs, then follow these steps.

Steps

Do these in order. Test on old data before it touches live work.

  1. 1Connect Zendesk with its own login, not yours. Grant a limited agent seat that writes internal notes.
  2. 2Connect Gmail with its own login, not yours. Grant read-only plus compose (drafts) scopes.
  3. 3Connect Google Docs with its own login, not yours. Grant one folder, create and edit only.
  4. 4Paste the prompt where your harness takes instructions. See the note under the Copy button.
  5. 5Do a dry run on old or test data first. Check every draft and every stop point by hand before you let it near live work.
  6. 6Read its log after the first real run. Only widen access once a week of runs looks clean.

Safeguards and trust score

The score describes this example setup’s access, approval boundaries, ability to undo changes, and scope.

Access18 / 30

Can draft things that send or spend, so it sits close to risky actions.

Human approval30 / 30

Waits for a yes on: sending any reply, any refund, cancellation or booking change.

Undo and logs14 / 20

Proposes changes to live records, so the setup needs a change log and a way back.

Scope16 / 20

Runs on its own login across 3 tools. Fewer connections means a smaller blast radius.

How to raise it

  • Access: Take away its ability to send, post or spend. Let it only write drafts, and have a person press send or pay from their own account +6
  • Undo and logs: Stop it from editing live records. Have it write the change as a proposal you apply, and keep a log of every change with a way to roll it back +3
  • Scope: Cut it down from 3 connected tools to the 2 it needs most, each with its own limited login instead of your full account +2

Do all of these to reach 89, up from 78.

More support workflows

  • User ticket sweep into scrubbed issues you approve

    Sweeps new and reopened user tickets in your app, checks the facts in the codebase and drafts one thing per ticket: an issue, a question back to the sender or a close note. Drafts never quote the ticket or name the sender, and nothing is filed, asked or closed until you approve each one.

  • Ticket triage

    Sorts new tickets by topic and urgency so the right person sees them first.

  • Reply suggester

    Drafts answers to common questions using your help docs.

  • Refund checker

    Checks refund requests against your policy and lays out the facts.

Other workflows that use the same tools

  • Email to quote drafter

    Sales. Turns a messy price request email into a priced quote and a draft reply. Risky orders get flagged for a person first.

  • Weekly marketing report digest

    Marketing. Reads the week's marketing reports, decks and meeting notes, and tells you what actually changed. It keeps a log so slow trends stand out.

  • Contract deadline tracker

    Operations. Spots a signed contract in your inbox, finds the effective date and works out each deadline. Then drafts a timeline email for everyone on the deal.
