Limit Owner dropdown to only privileged users

Hello,

RT Version - 4.0.2

The dropdown we see for selecting the owner of a ticket is currently
populated with all the users of the system, including unprivileged users who
have been auto created by emailing the system.

How do I limit the dropdown to only include privileged users?

Alternatively, how do I prevent auto creation of unprivileged users? I don’t
really see the point of users being created automatically when people email
in.

Thanks,

Alex

Take a look at the rights you assigned to the group Everyone
You may have granted the OwnTicket right to Everyone, either at a global level (http://fpt-service.fpt.local/Admin/Global/GroupRights.html) or at a queue level (http://fpt-service.fpt.local/Admin/Queues/GroupRights.html?id=XX)

This morning I bumped into the same problem. But in my case, this problem affected only one queue: OwnTicket was granted to Everyone at queue level.

Hope this helps :slight_smile:

On the group rights for each queue, ensure you have removed ALL rights for ‘Everyone’ and ‘Unprivileged’, then you should have user groups for your helpdesk. This (These) groups would be assigned permissions to the queue such as ‘modify ticket’.

I don’t think you would want to prevent the autocreation of users that email in. They need to be a user to be the requestor of a ticket.-----Original Message-----

Scotto, Izz,

Thanks, as you both suggested I have reviewed my group privileges and
indeed ‘Everyone’ has OwnTicket checked.

Fixed! Thanks!

Look for OwnTicket having been granted to Unprivileged or Everyone,
possibly at the Queue level rather than Globally.

Alternatively, how do I prevent auto creation of unprivileged users? I don’t

in.

You can’t. RT relies on those users to point to the Requestors/Ccs of
tickets.

I am having this same problem in RT 4.0.7, but your solution doesn’t work for
me as there is no OwnTicket option in Group Rights under either group or
queue configurations.

What is the new way of limiting ticket ownership to priveleged users?

Paul,

To own a ticket, you have to have the right to “Take” a ticket.

Yes there is.
Tools → Configuration → Queues → Select
General
Group Rights
Staff Rights
It’s the fifth right

Exactly as described before, go find the place in the system where
someone has accidentally granted OwnTicket more widely.
