screen shot 2015-05-06 at 12 36 14 pm

Tasks are sub-tickets which can be created and attached to tickets as well as created separately. Tasks have their own assignees, department routing and visibility, due date, and custom data. Tasks have their own threads and can have a list of collaborators. All in all, tasks may very well be the greatest advancement of osTicket since the advent of the ticket itself.

New Advanced Search

screen shot 2015-05-13 at 12 35 15 pm

The advanced search feature is rewritten to address several shortcomings of the original feature as well as a host of new features including

  • Search by any field, built-in or custom
  • Save your searches
  • Advanced search is shown as a new queue
  • Current advanced search criteria is maintained between searches
  • Sorting options are relevant to queue and preference remains after navigation between queues

Minor New Features

Thread editing

screen shot 2015-03-20 at 6 56 10 pm

Thread items can now be edited. The original entries are preserved and are accessible via a thread item's "History". Items can be resent with or without editing them, and a signature selection is available when resending.

Roles, and custom extended access

screen shot 2015-05-03 at 9 05 12 pm

The group permissions component has been offloaded to a new component, named "Roles". Roles allow for naming a set of permissions. Agents now have a "Primary Role" which defines their access to global things like the user directory and their access for their primary department. Each department granted via "Groups" is allows to be linked to a distinct "Role". This allows granting Read-Only access to some departments, for instance.

Improved knowledge base interface

screen shot 2014-10-18 at 11 55 58 pm

  • "Featured" articles show on the front page
  • Knowledge base search on front page
  • Translatable content
  • Locale-specific attachments

Multiple forms and disable individual fields for Help Topics

Help Topic configuration has a new super feature. Multiple forms can now be associated with each help topic, and the order the forms should appear for new tickets and editing tickets is configurable. Previously, the custom forms were always rendered above the "Ticket Details" form; but now it's completely customizable. What's more is that individual fields including the issue details can be disabled for any help topic.

Department hierarchy

Departments are now nestable. All departments can have a parent department, and the hierarchy is arbitrarily nestable. Access is cascaded so that access to a parent department automatically extends access to all descendent departments.

Image annotation

screen shot 2015-05-04 at 9 07 38 pm

Images can be annotated to add simple shapes like ovals, boxes, arrows and text. Annotates can be committed, and a new image is created from the annotations; however, annotations can still be edited before the thread post is submitted. Annotations are supported for both clients and agents, and the images can be selected from the ticket thread, so images already posted can be easily marked up.

Variable context type-ahead

screen shot 2015-04-20 at 4 32 58 pm

When editing content which uses variables, such as a thank-you page or an email template, variable placeholders now use a type-ahead feature. This new pop out significantly improves the connection between which variables are available in which templates. It also allows for adding significantly to the variable library without relying on exhaustive documentation to convey this information. Some new variables include

  • User lists, such as department members, team members, and collaborator lists
  • Lists can be rendered as names, emails, or both
  • Dates are format-able to time, short, full, and long
  • Dates can be humanized to something like in about an hour
  • Dates can be auto localized and formatted to the recipients locale and time zone selection
  • Attachments to thread items and custom fields can be attached via variable (e.g. %{message.files})

Redesigned list management

Simplified, tabular, paginated view of list items, with mass actions

The list management feature has a significant overhaul to accommodate larger lists. It also provides a heads display of list item properties as well as AJAX updates. CSV import and pagination have also been added as well as mass enable, disable, and delete.

Pluggable filter actions

screen shot 2015-05-04 at 8 59 32 pm

Filter actions are now far more flexible allowing for more elaborate and creative filter actions to be created. A new filter action has been added as an example of future possibilities: send an email. The new feature allows for ticket filter actions to be defined without modification to internal table structures, and even allows actions to be created via plugins!

Actions are also sortable and performed in the order specified, which allows doing something like sending an email before rejecting the ticket.

Other Improvements

Custom Data

  • Fields have more granular access configuration. View, edit, and requirement can be enabled individually for both agents and end users
  • Fields can be marked for required for closed. Therefore they can inhibit closure of a ticket without a valid value.

Export

The agent's locale is considered when exporting CSV and semicolon separators are used where necessary

User Interface

The subject line and many other text fields around the system are truncated by the browser, which fixes early truncation for some language with long Unicode byte stream, such as Chinese.

Improved lock system

The ticket lock system uses a code now which is rotated when updates to tickets are submitted. This helps prevent unwanted extra posts to tickets. A new annoying popup is displayed when viewing the ticket and the lock is about to expire.

Draft system

The draft system has been rewritten to reduce the number of requests to the backend and to reduce the dreaded "Unable to save draft" popup

ORM

The database query system is being redesigned to use an object relational mapper (ORM) instead of SQL queries. This will eventually lead to fewer database queries to use the system, cleaner code, and will allow the use of database engines other than MySQL. The ORM was originally introduced in osTicket v1.8.0, but has seen the greatest boost in capability in this release. About 47% of the SQL queries are removed between v1.9.7 and v1.10

We also have a forgot-my-password link and several other new minor adjustments to the user profile.

External Authentication Support

Use third-party SSO to authenticate your users and staff. Initial support include OAuth2 and LDAP (v0.5 of the LDAP plugin is required)

User Directory

Search, view, and manage, even delete! contact information from the users from whom you receive tickets. Staff can also manually register users and even set an initial password. Users can also be imported and exported via CSV data.

Organizations

Organize your users together into organizations. Organizations can have internal owners ("Account Manager") and external owners ("Primary Contact"). The Account Manager can receive new ticket and new message alerts. Organization Primary Contacts and members can be automatically added to tickets as collaborators.

User and Organization Notes

Quickly view, edit, add and remove pertinent notes on your users and organizations

Form Management

Staff members can now add, delete, and sort forms attached to tickets, users and organizations as well as remove stale data where fields have been retired from active forms.

Custom Properties for Lists

Add properties to your list items and use it in your email templates and pages. For example create an address property to a list of locations. List items can also be disabled now, which causes them to be hidden from selection.

PJAX page loading

For browsers supporting PJAX, navigating around the system will see a performance improvement as javascript and css files are not re-parsed for each page load.

osTicket v1.8.1 (Preview)

Collaborator Support (CC)

In addition to the ticket owner, other end users can be collaborators on a ticket. Responses received from them are integrated automatically into the ticket thread, and emails are sent to all collaborators when new messages and responses arrive into the system. All collaborators have access to the ticket via the client portal and are able to log new messages.

Plugin management system

osTicket supports plugins via a (currently undocumented) simple plugin API and interface. Plugins can be written and distributed as files or unpacked via ZIP archives, or distributed via PHP PHAR files. The plugin system is developed in hopes of adding extensibility to osTicket without significant overhead. Initially, two "classes" of plugins are supported: authentication, and file storage.

Pluggable authentication

Staff members can now be authenticated against a backend other than the osTicket internal database. Available immediately is integration with LDAP (RFC-2307) and Microsoft® Active Directory. The initial authentication system also support user lookups, so when browsing for new users when creating tickets, your directory server will be queried for users and email addresses.

Pluggable attachment storage

Attachments can live outside the database again. You can now write or install a plugin to store your attachments somewhere other than in your database, and osTicket will use the backend to store and retrieve (or redirect to) your attachments. We've initially made a plugin available to store attachments on the filesystem and plan on adding an Amazon S3 plugin very soon.

Internationalization, Phase 1

Select your default data on installation, and select the language preference, as a staff member, for the help tips. You can also now select the language of the email templates when creating a new template. The templates for that language will be used instead of the English ones where translated versions are available.

Rich Text Ticket Thread

As an option, enabled by default, osTicket can now process HTML email and allows for rich text markup in most long-answer boxes across the system, including staff replies and internal notes posted to the ticket thread. To keep the feature consistent throughout, canned responses and email templates also sport an HTML theme now.

Custom Forms and Fields

The data collected from your users when they fill out the ticket form is now customizable. You can now ask any information relevant to your business practice, and can customize the type of input show from the user. Currently, short and long answer fields, drop-down lists, checkboxes, date and time, and phone number fields are available. Each field is configurable and can be setup according to your liking. Fields can also be marked as required, whose input is required to submit the ticket, and internal, whose input is not visible to the end user.

New Features in 1.7

Version 1.7 includes several new features

Ticket Filters

As an upgrade from email banning (which is still supported), ticket filters allow for matching incoming email in the subject line and message body. For matching emails, the administrator has the ability to automatically route tickets:

  • To a specific department, staff member, and/or team
  • Automatically assign ticket priority and/or service-level-agreement
  • Disable ticket auto-responses
  • Send automatic canned responses

Tickets filters are also applied to tickets submitted via all ticket interfaces, including the API, email, staff and client web interfaces. And, as a bonus, the filters can be configured to target only a single interface. So an administrator could, for instance, target tickets received via email from a particular domain.

Canned Attachments

Attach files to your canned responses. These attachments are automatically attached to the ticket thread along with the canned response. The attachments are not duplicated in the database and therefore use virtually no space.

Database-backed Attachments

No more crazy security-related configuration to your host server in order to support attachments. Attachments are now quietly stored in the database. The upgrade migration will automatically port attachments from the previous locations into the database.

Service Level Agreements

Service level agreements allow for a configurable grace period based on the department or help topic associated with the ticket. A default SLA is provided, and a due date can be set to override the grace period of the SLA for a ticket.

Client-side Knowledgebase

Manage a searchable help document portal for your users

Dashboard Reports

Flashy reports of ticket system activity as well as exportable ticket system statistics, allowing for easy report generation from office spreadsheet applications.

Ticket Export

Convert the ticket thread to a printed format for long term storage. The ticket view page now supports a print feature, which will render the ticket as a PDF document.

API

Interface with osTicket via HTTP requests. Starting with version 1.7, tickets are createable by submitting an HTTP POST request to either

/api/tickets.xml
/api/tickets.json

The API can also be used to pipe emails into the osTicket system. Use the included automail.php or automail.pl script to pipe emails to the system, or post raw email messages directly to

/api/tickets.email

Use of the API requires an API key, which can be created and configured in the admin panel of the support system.

For technical details, please refer to [API Docs] (setup/doc/api.md).

Geeky New Features

Unicode

Better and more consistent international text handling

Flexible Template Variables

Template variables have been redesigned to be more flexible. They have been integrated into the respective object classes so that an object as well as its properties can be represented in template variables. For instance %{ticket.staff.name}
