Hi,
Is it possible to modify the Resolve button so that when it is clicked, the state will change to resolved? Thanks in advance for the help!

Hi @Hermes14 ,

Its a out-of-the-box feature as you click on Resolve button in Service Operations Workspace It will ask you put mandatory values like Close Notes before updating the incident.

For your Custom Solution: Create Your Own UI Action

If you're okay with bypassing the modal and simply want to change the state, you can create a custom UI Action.

current.state = 6;
current.update();
action.setRedirectURL(current);

Any reason you suggested a custom UI action where there is already one?

It is best practices to capture this information when incident is resolved and hence it is mandated. Recommendation is to not change the behaviour.

If you need to understand, how this is mandated and how to disable it, check below thread
