Canned Responses Pro and HelpDesk+ have joined forces to streamline your support workflow, saving you hours and ensuring consistent, helpful communication.

What is HelpDesk+?

HelpDesk+ bridges the gap between Slack and Jira Service Management, allowing users to request and manage tickets directly within Slack and equipping teams with an AI-powered chatbot.

How does it work with Canned Responses Pro?

After installing both apps and enabling the Canned Responses Pro integration, Slack users can easily access the full list of templates from both platforms. On the 'Add a comment' screen in Slack, users will find an option to view the entire template list. Once selected, a menu will display all available templates, allowing users to choose and populate the comment box with the desired template. Users can then proceed to edit or submit the message as usual.
