Ticket System

Incident and problem ticket management

Ticket System

The ticket system is the heart of OpsHugger. It provides a structured way to track, manage, and resolve operational issues.

Status: This feature is currently in design phase. See the Roadmap for timeline.

Ticket Types

Incident Tickets

For issues that are currently impacting service:

  • Something is broken right now
  • Requires immediate attention
  • Focus on restoring service quickly
  • May spawn Problem tickets for root cause analysis

Problem Tickets

For investigating root causes:

  • Why did this happen?
  • Created after incidents are resolved
  • Focus on preventing recurrence
  • Links to related incidents

Status Workflow

[Open] → [In Progress] → [Resolved] → [Closed]
                ↓
           [On Hold]
  • Open - New ticket, needs attention
  • In Progress - Actively being worked on
  • On Hold - Waiting for external input
  • Resolved - Fix applied, awaiting confirmation
  • Closed - Issue confirmed resolved

Integration Ideas

  • Link tickets to Runbooks for resolution steps
  • Connect to customer profiles for context
  • SLA tracking based on priority and customer
  • Notifications when status changes
