When to use it, when not to

Use it

  • Use it when the ticket owner (support rep) and the account owner (CS manager, AE, or CSM listed as the company's hubspot_owner_id) are routinely different people, and the account owner wants to know about urgent issues without living in the ticket queue.
  • Use it for renewal-risk visibility: an urgent ticket on an account nearing renewal is exactly the kind of thing a CSM should hear about immediately, not discover in a health score report days later.

Skip it

  • Do not use it if the ticket owner and the account owner are already the same person on your team structure; the notification would just duplicate what they already see.
  • Do not use it for every priority level; this fiche targets Urgent specifically, pair with tickets-sla-009 if High-priority enterprise tickets also need account-owner visibility.
