How to create a request through email

Hi All,

 

We’ve received a requirement to create a request directly from an email. We attempted to configure this using Flow designer and the “Submit a Catalog” action by triggering a catalog; however, this approach doesn’t meet our needs.

 

Specifically, we need to create a request without triggering any catalog items, while still generating the associated RITM and SC Task records.

 

Could anyone please advise on how we can achieve this?

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

 

Regards,

Hrithika Paida

@Hrithikah 

I will recommend to create REQ, RITM for your catalog item for fulfillment.

This is the standard approach for catalog

OR

If you simply want agents to work on tasks then why not create Incidents for this?
