Bug Triage Assistant

What does this mean?

Boosts support efficiency by ensuring quick attention to critical issues, improving customer satisfaction, and facilitating better communication between support and engineering for timely resolutions.

How it works?

Gathers and analyzes bug reports from ticketing systems, prioritizing and escalating them based on severity, impact on customers, and urgency.

Workflow Steps

Step 1: Trigger on new bug report

The Workflow activates automatically when a new bug report is submitted to your ticketing system—whether from Zendesk, Jira, or another connected helpdesk.

Step 2: Analyze and categorize the issue

Cassidy reviews the bug report details, pulling context from your Knowledge Base and systems like Jira to understand product areas, known issues, and historical patterns.

Step 3: Assess severity and impact

The Workflow evaluates the bug's severity based on factors like customer impact, affected functionality, and urgency—assigning a priority level that aligns with your team's triage criteria.

Step 4: Route based on priority

The Workflow directs the bug to the appropriate queue: critical issues get escalated immediately to engineering, while lower-priority bugs are organized for standard review.

Step 5: Notify the right team

Cassidy sends an alert to the relevant team via Slack or Microsoft Teams, including a summary of the issue, priority level, and recommended next steps—keeping support and engineering in sync.

Step 6: Log and update the ticket

The Workflow updates the original ticket with triage notes, priority tags, and routing information, ensuring full visibility and a clear audit trail for follow-up.
