It would be nice to be able to setup an Automation or a Trigger that \*automatically\* assigned new / unassigned / or tickets in a praticular group to an agent using a Round Robin algorithm.  We currently use an APEX app in SalesForce that does this.  I am using the Zendesk suggestion of a "First Line" group where an agent can then assign those tickets to another agent.  \*But\*, our other help desk operators are greatly suspicious of any human that tragically chooses to play that "assigner" role and inevitably plot their demise. If this type of automation is possible using the exiting features, please do share.  :-)

    Hi @barry14, will there be any special requirements to access the EAP (one published obviously)? Because our team would love to test this new functionality.

    Hi Barry, I have signed up for EAP a week or two ago. When can I expect to have this functionality tested from my instance?

    Hi @anita12
    We are running a closed EAP at the moment for Enterprise plan customers, with a GA likely later on in Q1 2022.

    Regards
