Inbound action "Update Change task"

Vaibhav39

Hello,

 

When 'A' user mentions name of a 'B' user in the work notes of 'Change Task' record then one email is triggering to 'B' user. Here 'B' is an end user.

When 'B' replies to that email then that reply should be captured in work notes.

 

There is OOB inbound action called 'Update Change task' which is working for 'admin' and 'itil' users but not for end users.

Question is - IS THIS EXPECTED?

Hi @Vaibhav39 ,

That is expected.

When 'A' user mentions name of a 'B' user in the work notes, then 'B' (end user) will receive the notification. This notification is configured on 'Notification [live_notification]' table and not on 'Change Task'.

Hope you get the reason why inbound action is not getting triggered for end user.

 

Please mark this reply as helpful/correct based on the impact.

Hi @Vaibhav39 ,

 

I hope you are talking about the below one ,

Here 2 things are happening so if the reply received from users with admin or itil role it will allow to change the assigned to and priority of the change task 

 

secondly it will print the worknote it doesn't matter whether the user is having admin or itil role,

and  if you still need clarification go to description of the inbound email action, servicenow has explained it in detail with example,

My question is different.

Will the end user (user 'B' in my case) be able to send a reply to work notes in change task record?
If yes, then in my case that is not happening. Now next question is, how to check/debug that ?

Hi @Vaibhav39 

 

Greetings!!

 

Let's try to simply this

 

In change we have change task , a email trigger to user B

If user B send reply on email, and if inbound action is there then it will capture and update in change task

 

OOTB Inbound action is there
