The problem it solves

Support tickets slip past their deadline because nobody is watching the clock on every open case. Technicians juggling dozens of tickets need a reminder before something breaches its deadline, not an angry customer after the fact.

Who it fits

An IT help desk or support team using a ticketing system that tracks resolution deadlines.

How it works

  1. Every morning, the system checks all open support tickets
  2. It finds any ticket due to expire within the next couple of days
  3. Each ticket is matched to the technician it's assigned to
  4. A Microsoft Teams message is sent to that technician with the ticket name, ID, and time remaining
  5. Technicians see the warning in time to act before the deadline passes
What you get

Tickets that never miss their deadline

Your technicians get a Teams alert with time remaining before any ticket's deadline passes, so nothing slips through unnoticed.

What you get

A Microsoft Teams alert to the right technician listing the ticket and how much time is left.

What you need

A GLPI helpdesk account with API access and a Microsoft Teams account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.
