How do you count tickets by category and week and show which categories are growing?

Export your Zendesk tickets file and load it into Mammoth. Group tickets by category and week, then count each group. Mark a category as Agrees when weekly tickets stay at 1 or less, Growing when a category reaches 2 or more in a week, and Open when that week still has open tickets.

Weekly Ticket Categories: questions

What export should I use?
Use the tickets export from Zendesk. It should include the ticket fields you need for category, week, and status.
What happens to rows that do not match a rule?
They stay unflagged or are left as they are, depending on the step. You can review them separately and decide whether to change the rule.
How do I change the rules?
Edit the rule in plain words, then run the workflow again. For example, change the category list, the week grouping, or the threshold for Growing.
