Track and action Issues from QA reviews

Use Issues to turn QA findings into tracked, owned work.

Issues is a new workflow that lets reviewers capture a problem on a Fin conversation, directly from that conversation during a QA review and track it through to resolution. Every Issue ticket collects in a central, workspace-wide Issues view, giving teammates a single place to see what needs fixing, who owns it, and what the status is.

The Analyze section of the Intercom sidebar with Issues highlighted, alongside the Monitors overview showing review stats and monitor cards

You can:

  • Create an Issue ticket straight from a conversation, with a title, type, priority, and assignee.

  • Track everything in one Issues view, filterable by status and issue type.

  • Link the same Issue ticket to multiple conversations where the problem appeared.

  • Open an Issue ticket with Operator pre-loaded with context to help make the fix.

  • Attach multiple tracker tickets to the same conversation, including an Issue ticket alongside an existing feature request or bug report.

Note: Issues is available as part of the Pro add-on. This enables manually reported issues created during QA reviews. AI recommendations and system errors are coming soon.


Creating an Issue during a review

While reviewing a conversation in a Monitor, you can create an Issue from the Review tab, without leaving the conversation.

  1. Open a conversation from the Unreviewed queue in Analyze > Monitors.

  2. In the Review sidebar, scroll to the Issue section and click + Add.

    A conversation open in a Monitor with the Review sidebar visible on the right, showing the Issues section at the bottom with a '+ Add' button

  3. In the search panel that opens, click + Tracker Ticket to create a new one.

    The tracker ticket search panel open within a conversation review, showing a list of recently updated issues and a '+ Tracker Ticket' button

  4. Give it a Title, an optional Description, and set an Issue type and an Assignee or Team Inbox.

    The Create Tracker ticket form with fields for title, description, ticket type, and issue type, alongside a Details panel showing Assignee and Team Inbox

  5. Click Create ticket.

  6. A priority can be given once the issue has been submitted.

Tip: You can create an issue at any point during a review (you don't need to submit the scorecard first).

Issue types

Set an issue type when creating an issue to help the assignee understand what kind of fix is needed.

The Issue type dropdown on the Create Tracker ticket form, showing options: Content, Guidance, Attributes, Escalation, Procedure, Workflow, Internal process, and Other

Issue type

Use it when

Content

A knowledge base article or snippet is inaccurate, missing, or unclear

Guidance

A Fin guidance rule needs to be created, updated, or removed

Attributes

An attribute used in a conversation or routing rule is incorrect or missing

Escalation

Fin is escalating too often, not enough, or to the wrong team

Procedure

A Fin procedure has a logic error, a missing step, or incorrect behavior

Workflow

An automation workflow is producing the wrong outcome

Internal process

The issue relates to a team process rather than a Fin configuration setting

Other

The issue doesn't fit any of the above categories

Linking an Issue to multiple conversations

When the same problem turns up in more than one conversation, you can link an existing Issue to each one rather than filing a duplicate.

  1. Open a conversation from the Unreviewed queue in Analyze > Monitors.

  2. In the Review sidebar, scroll to the Issue section and click + Add.

  3. Then search and select the existing issue you want to link the conversation to.


Viewing and managing issues

To view all issues, go to Analyze > Issues which takes you to the dedicated inbox view.

This view is workspace-wide so every issue created during a QA review appears here, regardless of which reviewer created it or which Monitor it came from.

Note: In standalone workspaces, teammates don't have an inbox. When an Issue is assigned to a teammate, it appears only in Analyze > Issues — not in a personal inbox.

Use it to:

  • See all open issues at a glance.

  • Check who each issue is assigned to.

  • Track status from submission through to resolution.

Issue statuses

Each issue moves through a set of statuses as it's worked on and resolved.

Status

What it means

Submitted

The issue has been created and is waiting to be picked up

In progress

The assignee is actively working on it

Resolved

The issue has been fixed and closed

Won't fix

The issue has been reviewed and won't be actioned
