Add Build Message after a workflow trigger or action that provides ticket data. Select Customer Facing for client communications or Internal for team messages.

Quick start

1

Add the action

Add “Build Message” to any workflow where you have ticket data available.
2

Write clear instructions

Be specific about what you want. For example:
  • “Create a friendly update for the customer about their ticket status”
  • “Write a brief internal summary of what was done on this ticket”
  • “Generate a polite message asking for more information”
3

Choose message type

Select “Customer Facing” for client communications or “Internal” for team messages.
4

Add notification action

Use the generated message with actions like:
  • “Notify Ticket’s Contact” for customer messages
  • “Add Ticket Note” for internal documentation
  • “Notify Internal Team” for team alerts

Setup

Ticket to reference: The action works with any ticket from your workflow trigger or previous actions. Message instructions: Provide clear instructions about what kind of message you want. Examples:
  • “Create a friendly status update for the customer about their ticket progress”
  • “Write a brief internal summary of what was accomplished on this ticket”
  • “Generate a polite message asking the customer for more information”
Message type: Specify the intended audience:
  • Customer Facing: Messages that will be sent to clients
  • Internal: Messages for your team or internal documentation
The message type decides which downstream action can read the output. “Notify Ticket’s Contact” reads only Customer Facing messages; “Notify Internal Team” and “Add Ticket Note” read only Internal messages. If you send an Internal message to “Notify Ticket’s Contact”, or a Customer Facing message to an internal action, nothing is sent.

Common use cases
