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 →
Example: Client onboarding task list
