Problem Description
Customers using Customer Service Management (CSM) cannot share a request with another customer outside the requester’s Organization, even when customer access is configured to be open.
Suggested Resolution
Enable CSM request sharing parity with JSM behavior by allowing a customer to share a request with another user by email subject to admin-configurable access controls
Why This Is Important
- Customer collaboration: Many real-world requests involve multiple parties across different companies.
- Scalability: Forcing collaboration via Organizations would require creating and maintaining multiple orgs.
- Customer experience: Users expect “share request” to behave consistently; current behavior appears broken due to the generic error message.
- Adoption blocker: This limitation makes the sharing feature effectively unusable for B2B/multi-party support scenarios in CSM.
Workaround (if any)
- An agent may be able to add participants from the agent/Jira issue view
