When your tickets have complex or repeatable processes
Tasks & Subtickets transforms Zendesk into a full task management platform — you can even start managing projects inside Zendesk.
- Reusable task lists: build once, apply to any ticket in a click.
- Linked subtickets: each a full Zendesk ticket with its own SLA and assignee.
- Subticket templates with field mapping: pre-fill with Liquid and parent values.
- Auto-apply from triggers: the right list attaches the moment a ticket qualifies.
- Phased task lists: phase 2 only unlocks when phase 1 is done.
- Required task lists: block solve until every task and subticket is complete.
- Ticket updates on completion: tag, comment, or update any field.
- Native ticket fields: total, completed, remaining — usable in views and Explore.
- Explore reporting: tasks, subtickets, and parent/child relationships.
- Translated task lists: one list, any agent language.
- Admin audit log & permissions: template access and delegated app admin.
- Light agent participation: they can create and contribute without a seat bump.
- Works together with other apps: apply task lists from other apps and trigger other apps when tasks or phases complete →

Every time we've needed to extend the functionality of Zendesk, SweetHawk apps have been there.
The SweetHawk integration was very straightforward and allowed a high level of customization. We now have the power to determine what apps are needed for each specific group within MongoDB.
