The private credentials add-on allows your customers to share sensitive information within the ticket. For example, if you are a web development agency and need your customers to share information like cPanel access, administrative access, FTP details, etc. If the customer has to share this information within the reply, it will be visible to all agents who have read permission to the ticket and will be sent in the email notifications.
How does it work?
- A new widget, “Private Credentials” is added within an individual ticket page.
- The customer (ticket creator) can add/edit/delete the credentials in this widget.
- The information is stored in an encrypted format in the database.
- The agents, who have the capability, can view/add/modify/delete the credentials.
