Set up Ticketing to Email Your External Ticket System

Set up ticketing in a space to allow users in the space to keep track of security tasks from within the Mondoo Console. Create an email integration to automatically send email to your ticket, issue tracking, or project management system when you create a new ticket. Your external tracking system's email listener or service receives the email and generates a ticket using the information Mondoo includes in the email.

For an overview of ticketing, read Track and Fix Findings with Ticketing.

You can set up multiple recipients for ticket email messages. When you create a new ticket, a drop-down lets you choose the recipient for that ticket. This is helpful for teams with different methods for tracking different types of tasks.
