Common Issues
Solutions to issues you might encounter when using AgentDesk.
Sign-in problems
Cannot sign in
- Check that your email address and password are correct
- If your portal uses SSO, click the Sign in with SSO button instead of using the email/password form
- If you have forgotten your password, use the password reset link on the login page
- Contact your portal administrator if you continue to have trouble
SSO sign-in not working
- Verify that your company's identity provider is accessible
- Try signing in again from the portal login page
- If the error mentions a redirect issue, contact your portal administrator
Account not verified
- Check your email for a verification link
- If you registered through an invitation, your email should be pre-verified
- Contact your administrator if the verification email has not arrived
Ticket issues
Cannot create a ticket
- Make sure you have access to the portal (you must be a portal member)
- Check that at least one request type is available
- If no request types are shown, contact your portal administrator
Ticket not appearing in Jira
- Verify the portal is configured for Jira Sync (not Local Only)
- Check that a Jira project is selected for the portal
- Contact your administrator to verify the Jira connection is active
Comments not syncing
- Comments sync automatically between AgentDesk and Jira when the integration is active
- If comments are not appearing, the Jira connection may need to be re-tested from Admin > Settings > Integrations
AI workflow issues
Workflow seems stuck
- Check the ticket for an approval request -- the workflow may be waiting for someone to approve a proposed change
- Approval requests expire after 24 hours if not acted on
- Contact your portal administrator if the workflow does not resume after approval
AI analysis did not find the issue
- Try providing more detail in the ticket description
- Include specific error messages or steps to reproduce the issue
- The AI works best with clear, specific descriptions
Portal and settings issues
Cannot access admin settings
- Only users with Org Admin, Org Owner, or Portal Admin roles can access admin settings
- Contact your organisation administrator to check your role
Custom domain not working
- Verify the CNAME DNS record points to
portal.noice.net.au - DNS changes can take up to 48 hours to propagate
- Check for a DNS Verified badge on the General settings tab
Users not receiving invitation emails
- Verify the email address is correct
- Ask the user to check their spam or junk folder
- Invitations expire after 7 days -- send a new one if the original has expired
- Contact your administrator if emails are consistently not arriving
SLA issues
SLA not tracking on a ticket
- Verify that an SLA policy is configured for the ticket's portal (check Admin > Portals > [portal] > SLA)
- SLA tracking only applies to tickets created after the policy was enabled
- Check that the ticket's priority has response and resolution targets defined in the policy
SLA timer appears paused
- SLA timers pause when a ticket is in a waiting state (for example, "Waiting for Customer")
- Timers also pause outside of configured business hours
- Check the portal's business hours configuration to confirm the timezone, working days, and holiday schedule are correct
Sprint issues
Cannot complete a sprint
- Only sprints with Active status can be completed
- Ensure you have the required role (Portal Admin or Operator) to manage sprints
- If tickets remain in the backlog, they will be recorded as carryover in the sprint snapshot
Tickets missing from sprint backlog
- Verify the tickets are assigned to the correct sprint
- Tickets that have been deleted or moved to a different portal will not appear in the backlog
- Check filters on the sprint view -- resolved tickets may be hidden by default
Integration issues
Shopify connection failing
- Verify your Shop Domain is correct (it should be in the format
yourstore.myshopify.com) - Check that your API Key, API Secret, and Access Token are still valid in your Shopify admin
- If you recently rotated credentials, update them in Admin > Settings > Integrations
- Use the Test Connection button to check the current status
BigCommerce connection failing
- Verify your Store Hash is correct (found in your BigCommerce API account settings)
- Check that your Client ID, Client Secret, and Access Token are valid
- BigCommerce API tokens can expire -- generate a new token if the existing one has stopped working
- Use the Test Connection button to diagnose the issue
E-commerce data not syncing
- Check the integration connection status in Admin > Settings > Integrations
- For Shopify, verify that webhooks are correctly registered in your Shopify admin
- For BigCommerce, check that the API account has the required permissions for reading products and orders
- Try disconnecting and reconnecting the integration if sync issues persist
