Overview

This node operation retrieves detailed information about a specific ticket from ManageEngine ServiceDesk Plus. It can optionally include embedded images within the ticket description as base64-encoded data. This is useful for scenarios where users need to fetch comprehensive ticket details including any images embedded in the ticket, such as screenshots or photos attached to the ticket description.

Use Case Examples

  1. Fetching a ticket by its ID to display all details in a dashboard.
  2. Retrieving a ticket with embedded images to show inline visuals in a support interface.

Properties

Troubleshooting
