A Company Administrator can now configure a substitute folder in the folder configuration. When a user chooses the action to move a ticket to a folder, the substitute folder is the default folder. All other folders will remain options for the user to choose from.
Permission for New Self-Service Reports
You can now restrict access to the new Power BI Reporting for self-service reports by group.
Group Option to Exclude Tickets from Ticket History
You can now change a group’s settings so the group can only see the ticket actions (on the ticket audit history) you choose.

A system administrator can now use a custom Insights AI API key to retrieve Insights AI scores using the customer specific model. The custom Insights AI API key is entered on the Company Setup > Configure Ticket Manager Options screen after logging in as an Administrator.
