Troubleshooting
"View shows no tickets"
- Your saved filters might be too restrictive
- Tickets matching the criteria may have changed status
- Check if filters are still valid (e.g., deleted tags)
"Can't edit shared view"
- Only admins can edit shared views
- Ask an admin to make changes
- Or create your own private version
"View not syncing across devices"
- Views are organization-specific, not device-specific
- Check you're in the same organization
- Try refreshing the browser
"Filters reset when I leave"
- Make sure you clicked Save View, not just applied filters
- Temporary filters reset when you navigate away
- Check the view name is selected in sidebar
