Defining the Escalation Path in Ticket Routing Rules
Every Ticket Routing Rule has an Escalation Path. The Escalation Path defines the order that Rocketship will escalate a ticket. Let’s take an example:
For HelpDesk tickets, you want this order:
- IT: Tech 1 Team. This is your Level 1 helpdesk and they get all new tickets.
- IT: Tech II Team. This is your Level 2 helpdesk and they only get tickets that Level 1 can’t resolve.
- IT: Service Manager Team. This is your service manager and she only gets tickets that your Level 2 can’t resolve.
In an Ticket Routing Rule:
- Click on Edit Ticket Routing Rule in the Escalation Path window
- Drag & Drop the teams from the Unassigned Teams box into the Assigned Teams box — this is an ordered list, so you can move them up/down as needed
- Click Save Changes

Once done, you’ll see the Escalation Path has been updated in the Ticket Routing Rule:
