Add Custom Fields to Tickets
Custom fields store structured data on tickets beyond built-in properties like status, priority, and labels—e.g. cost centers, affected systems, office locations, and request areas. Team admins add them under Settings → Custom Fields; each field applies to all tickets on that team. Types include text, number, boolean, date, dropdown, and multi-select. Agents fill them in the Custom Fields section on the ticket detail right panel (you can add fields from there too). Turn on AI Custom Field Inference and Serval proposes values from the ticket text for every type except date (use a workflow for automatic dates). Workflows and the public API can also read and write values. In the ticket list, open Filter and pick a custom field: predefined options for dropdowns and multi-selects, search terms for text, comparison operators for numbers and dates. See Custom fields for supported types, creating fields, AI inference, filtering steps, deprecation, and API examples. For example, pair a Request Area dropdown (Hardware, Network, Software) with a Cost estimate number field, let inference suggest Affected systems from the thread, then filter to Hardware and cost estimates under 5,000 for fast triage.
Run Campaigns on a Recurring Schedule
Campaigns can now be recurring as well as one-time. Set a repeating cadence—such as every few hours, on selected weekdays, on specific days of the month, or on particular months—and Serval creates a new run each time the schedule fires. Activate the series to start the schedule; each run has its own delivery lifecycle and appears on the parent campaign’s Runs tab. Choose whether the first run starts right away or waits for the next cycle, pick specific timezone or local time delivery where supported, and use the schedule preview to confirm upcoming send times before you go live. See Scheduling for every option, including frequency types and how recurring runs relate to the parent campaign.New Installable Workflows
