Re: [rt-users] Show tickets depending on creator and not owner
Hi Chris,
first of all thanks for improving my script.
I create my tickets vie the WebUI, but RT doesn't add the logged in user as a
requestor in my RT instance. Do I have to configure this somehow, or should
this be the default? As I already mentioned some mails before (at least I think
so): I'm using RT 4.0.1. Any ideas?
Regards,
Fabian
Hi Fabian,
you could simplify you script as you don't need the principal stuff
here. The scrip would then look like this:
my $scrip = 'Script:AutoAddCreatorAsRequestor';
# Get Current Ticket
my $Ticket = $self-TicketObj;
# Get Current Ticket ID
my $Id = $Ticket-id;
# Get E-Mail-Address of creator
my $EmailAddr = $self-TransactionObj-CreatorObj-EmailAddress;
# Type of watch
my $type = 'Requestor';
# Add the creator as a watcher of type $type (requestor)
my ($ret, $msg) = $Ticket-AddWatcher(Type = $type, Email = $EmailAddr);
# Check if adding was successful
if ($ret) {
$RT::Logger-info($scrip: New $type watcher added to ticket #$Id:
$EmailAddr);
} else {
$RT::Logger-error($scrip: Failed to add new $type watcher to ticket
#$Id: $EmailAddr - $msg);
}
return 1;
But I don't understand why you need this scrip.
How do you create your tickets? Email, WebUI, REST?
If you create your ticket by email RT will automatic load the creator
(From email address) as the requestor.
If you create you ticket by WebUI, RT put the email address of the
currently logged in user in the requestor field.

Re: [rt-users] Show tickets depending on creator and not owner
Hi Fabian, I don't have a RT 4.0.1 installation by the hand but I checked the code at github and this should work. For the ticket create form it is in share/html/Ticket/Create.html line 119 and for ticket quick create form it is in: share/html/Elements/QuickCreate line 71 Has the current logged in user an email address set? Do you have any customizations that overwrites one of the files above? -Chris Am 06.07.2011 09:55, schrieb Fabian Unfried: Hi Chris, first of all thanks for improving my script.

Re: [rt-users] Show tickets depending on creator and not owner
I did not customize the code of rt at all, but the hint with the eMail address is not too bad, because in my first test setup none of my users had an eMail address, so that was exactly my problem, thanks a lot!!! So you're right the script I posted is useless.

Re: [rt-users] Show tickets depending on creator and not owner
I was able to do the script by my own, thanks to the rt wiki, if someone is
interested in the script, here it is:
my $scrip = 'Script:AutoAddCreatorAsRequestor';
# Get Current Ticket
my $Ticket = $self-TicketObj;
# Get Current Ticket ID
my $Id = $Ticket-id;
# Get E-Mail-Address of creator
my $EmailAddr = $self-TransactionObj-CreatorObj-EmailAddress;
# Get user object of creator
my $User = RT::User-new($RT::SystemUser);
$User-LoadByEmail($EmailAddr);
# Type of watch
my $type = 'Requestor';
# Principal of user
my $Principal = $User-PrincipalId;
# Add the creator as a watcher of type $type (requestor)
my ($ret, $msg) = $Ticket-AddWatcher(Type = $type, Email = $EmailAddr,
PrincipalId = $Principal,);
# Check if adding was successful
if ($ret) {
$RT::Logger-info($scrip: New $type watcher added to ticket #$Id: $EmailAddr
(#$Principal));
} else {
$RT::Logger-error($scrip: Failed to add new $type watcher to ticket #$Id:
$EmailAddr (#$Principal) - $msg);
}
return 1;
It is really similar to this one, but much easier:
http://requesttracker.wikia.com/wiki/AddWatchersOnCorrespond
If someone can see some critical code in it, please let me know! Thanks in
advance.
And finally, rt is really great, now it does everything I need, nice job guys!

Re: [rt-users] Show tickets depending on creator and not owner
Fabian, The Creator of a ticket is in most cases the requestor unless they decided to change that by entering a different email address in the requestor field when a ticket is first created. I think the scenario you describing below will most likely be the creator == requestor. Customers should not be owners of a ticket (in all ticketing processes that I am aware of anyway), ownership should be assigned to those that can fix issue/supply information. If your customers are unprivileged users, then by default the web ui will present them with the Selfservice portal which by default list all their tickets that they have requested. Try to login as one of those unprivileged users to see the different interface you get.

Re: [rt-users] Show tickets depending on creator and not owner
Hi Roy, Fabian, The Creator of a ticket is in most cases the requestor unless they decided to change that by entering a different email address in the requestor field when a ticket is first created. I think the scenario you describing below will most likely be the creator == requestor. Yes, that's the way I'm using rt (have a look at my mail from 10:55 today :) ) Customers should not be owners of a ticket (in all ticketing processes that I am aware of anyway), ownership should be assigned to those that can fix issue/supply information. Yes, I agree, but e. g. a customer didn't told you everything you would like to know to solve an issue, you would need more information from that customer (so a customer is someone who can supply information), so in my opinion I would re-assign it to the customer/requestor, or is there another way in rt? And btw, if I don't assign a ticket to the requestor he can't see the ticket in the WebUI and that's why I'm writing to the list, so the question is, if you never assign a ticket to a customer/requestor, how will they ever know when an issue/ticket is solved? If your customers are unprivileged users, then by default the web ui will present them with the Selfservice portal which by default list all their tickets that they have requested. Try to login as one of those unprivileged users to see the different interface you get. Hmm, ok that's strange, if I'm logging in as an unprivileged user, I can't see the tickets I created with that user, only if I log in as an admin and assign it the that user. That's why I'm asking my questions here :s Is there anything I could have changed in the configuration, or do I have to set any special rights to the requestors or unprivileged users that they can see their created tickets and not only when they are assigned to them?

Currently my rt (demo-)system setup is: Global group rights: Everyone = no rights Privileged = all rights Unprivileged = CommentOnTicket, CreateTicket, ReplyToTicket, ShowArticle AdminCc = no rights Cc = no rights Owner = ReplyToTickets, SeeCustomField, ShowTicket Requestor = no rights User-defined group rights (all of my groups have the same rights setup): Everyone = SeeGroup, SeeGroupDashboard, ShowSavedSearches Privileged = all rights Unprivileged = SeeGroup, SeeGroupDashboard, ShowSavedSearches Queue group rights: Everyone = CommentOnTicket, CreateTicket, ReplyToTicket, SeeCustomField Privileged = all rights Unprivileged = CommentOnTicket, CreateTicket, ReplyToTicket, SeeCustomField AdminCc = no rights Cc = no rights Owner = CommentOnTicket, CreateTicket, ReplyToTicket, SeeCustomField Requestor = CommentOnTicket, CreateTicket, ReplyToTicket, SeeCustomField Is there anything wrong with this setup, any idea why my customers / unprivileged users can't see their own tickets as long as the tickets aren't assigned to them? They can't even access the tickets when they aren't assigned to/owner of them, rt won't let them because of missing rights.

Is this possible? Of course it's possible. Grant the appropriate rights to the Requestor role either at the queue level or globally.

Re: [rt-users] Show tickets depending on creator and not owner
Hmm, ok, any idea where the problem could be, or which right(s) my problem could cause, or at least where I could get more information about that or anything else? I've tried a lot, but nothing did solve my problem, I even gave all general rights to all requestors I've found (queues, global, ...) and still I can't see my created tickets logged in as an unprivileged user, except the tickets are assigned to that user :S Am 01.07.2011 um 16:11 schrieb Thomas Sibley: On 07/01/2011 09:57 AM, Fabian Unfried wrote: Thanks for the quick reply, but that didn't help, still the same the customers (unprivileged users and creator/requestor of the tickets) can't see their tickets only if they are assigned to it :S This is entirely a rights configuration issue.

Re: [rt-users] Show tickets depending on creator and not owner
Ok, now I'm confused, I thought every user that haven't set the privileged flag is automatically an unprivileged user and a requestor is someone who creates a ticket and the owner is the user the ticket is assigned to, or isn't this correct? If it is like I described it, I'm fine with my setup. I've created a ticket with an unprivileged user called someone after that, I was able to see the overview of the ticket, but it doesn't appear in the overview of the opened tickets and if I tried to directly go to that ticket with its ticket id, a no permission message appears in rt besides I give globally unprivileged users ShowTicket, but then they can see also tickets from other unprivileged user which I do not want (but they still wont be shown in the open ticket overview).

Re: [rt-users] Show tickets depending on creator and not owner
Fabian, First of all, the Creator does NOT have to be the Requestor. When creating a new ticket via WebUI, just override the UserID/Email Address to represent the person who wants the work to be done. RT will STILL maintain the creators UserID. Second, all you have to do is grant SeeQueue and ShowTicket to the Requestor role at whatever level you need this (Queue or Global). You might want to add ReplyToTicket as well if you want them to be able to add continuing thoughts (by sending an email to the same Queue address with the ticket number referenced in the subject line) at any time while the ticket is open. I just gave some basic concepts about rights in this list just awhile ago. Hope this helps.
