Create ticket from e-mail when doesn't have a customer account on

[a.nitu]

Hi,

In the "Service Project access" for my Jira Service Management Project I have configured

"Choose who can send requests to "project" via support@company.com or the portal: Customers added by agents and admins.

I need to know what happens when a customer which doesn't have an account sends an e-mail request to create a ticket? Will the customer be notified he doesn't have an account and should first request for an account creation? 

or, is there any way the customer or myself are notified so that we take the right action?

thanks,

alexandre

Hey @a.nitu 

If the setting is Customers added by agents and admins. then it does not get through.

If it's anyone on the web, that's when they receive an email to create an account.

This is the best article I can find to support that.

If customers have to be manually added to your project, make sure your team creates new customer accounts for them or their requests won't be processed.

https://support.atlassian.com/jira-service-management-cloud/docs/what-are-the-customer-permission-settings-for-email-requests/

IMO it would be nice to have a bounce or undeliverable message, but that may also be by design for security reasons.
