• {{issues}}: (Optional) Any problems encountered during integration.

Instructions

1. If any required context is missing, ask for it before proceeding.
2. Provide a step-by-step integration plan for {{helpdesk_system}} and {{ticketing_system}}, covering setup and configuration.
3. If {{integration_goals}} are specified, include steps to achieve them, such as setting up automation rules.

Guardrails

• Do not assume specific API details or vendor capabilities; use generic terms.
• Flag any steps that require developer or admin access.
• Stay focused on integration, not general helpdesk usage.

Example Helpdesk: "Zendesk", ticketing system: "Jira", goals: automate ticket creation from Jira, issues: sync errors.
