Info needed to send issues to Shane/Ian

There are times when a ticket can not be solved by the helpdesk and needs to routed to Shane/Ian. Some examples are:

  • Custom review stalled/needing deleting
  • Solutions not displaying
  • Problems with test dashboard not working
  • Quest software malfunctioning
  • Quest software user interface inconsistencies
  • Suggested Quest upgrades
  • etc.

First thing is to try to recreate the problem if it is a problem being described. To do this you will need to:

  • upgrade the instructor or student to pool2 if needed 
  • masquerade as the instructor or as the student
    • go to the course (copy the web address for later)
    • go to the assignment (copy the web address for later)
    • go to the question if applicable (copy the web address for later)
    • if you can duplicate the issue then collect info for Shane/Ian and send a slack mesg
      • Also inform the student/instructor that this information is being passed to the Quest system administration team
    • if you can not duplicate the issue, then email the student
      • you could not duplicate their problem AND
      • ask the student to try clearing their web browser cache (standard mesg)


Below is the info to collect for Shane/Ian

  • OSTicket #
  • instructor UT EID and possibly student UT EID
  • web address of course ID
  • web address of assignment/homework/exam/test
  • web address of question if necessary
  • description of the problem
  • could you recreate the problem
  • level of urgency

Please place all the info above in the Internal Notes Section of the OSTicket
