Seventh Sky

Smart Support is a modern, full‑featured helpdesk and ticketing system built specifically for WordPress. It gives your customers a clean, friendly portal to request help and track progress, while your team gets the tools they need to triage, collaborate, and resolve tickets efficiently.
Smart Support transforms your WordPress site into a full-featured AI-supported helpdesk ticket & customer support system. Built with agents, supervisors, and customers in mind, it provides everything you need to deliver efficient, reliable, and professional customer support — right from your WordPress dashboard. The enhanced admin interface features optimized column layouts, flexible ticket numbering options, and improved data visualization for better ticket management efficiency.
Agents can optionally use built‑in AI assistance on individual tickets (after you add your own API credentials under Settings → Advanced → AI): summarize threads, get suggested replies, rewrite drafts before sending, ask follow‑up questions about the conversation, or add custom instructions alongside any action.

<h3>REST API Integrations</h3>
Smart Support v2.0.1 includes an optional REST API intended for server-to-server integrations (CRM, automations, imports). It is disabled by default.
<ul>
<li>Enable it: Smart Support → Settings → Advanced → API → “Enable REST API”</li>
<li>Authentication: create one or more API keys (shown once at creation).</li>
</ul>
Fore more details read → <a href="https://smartsupportdesk.com/knowledgebase/smart-support-rest-api-user-guide/" rel="nofollow ugc">REST API Documentation</a>
<h3>Notes on Privacy & Security</h3>
Smart Support uses <a href="https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api/siteverify" rel="nofollow ugc">Google reCAPTCHA</a> (optional) for spam prevention (<a href="https://policies.google.com/terms" rel="nofollow ugc">Terms of Service</a> & <a href="https://policies.google.com/privacy" rel="nofollow ugc">Privacy Policy</a>) and <a href="https://www.chartjs.org" rel="nofollow ugc">Chart.js</a> in the admin for analytics (<a href="https://www.chartjs.org/" rel="nofollow ugc">Terms of Service</a> & <a href="https://www.chartjs.org/" rel="nofollow ugc">Privacy Policy</a>). The plugin validates permissions server‑side, escapes output, verifies nonces on all forms, and stores files securely using WordPress APIs.
<h4>Privacy and data flow (AI)</h4>
Smart Support agent AI is optional and can use a connected WordPress Core AI provider on WordPress 7.0+, or your saved credentials under Settings -> Advanced -> AI as a fallback. When you use the assistant:
<ul>
<li>Your WordPress site (server) sends HTTPS requests through the configured WordPress Core AI provider when available. If Core AI is not configured, Smart Support sends requests from your configured API base URL to <code>{base URL}/chat/completions</code> using your saved API key (Bearer authentication). Requests never go through Smart Support vendor servers solely for AI; traffic is between your server and your chosen provider.</li>
<li>Content transmitted typically includes relevant ticket thread text (subject, replies, identifiers as built for the prompt); for rewrite, the current reply draft from the editor; plus any custom instructions or questions you type in the AI panel. Exact fields follow the task (summarize, suggest reply, rewrite, ask).</li>
<li>Who can trigger it: only staff who can view that ticket in wp-admin and pass permission checks—same capability rules as normal ticket access. Customers and the public cannot call the AI endpoint from the plugin UI.</li>
<li>Where credentials live: your API key and AI settings are stored in the WordPress database (options). Protect database backups, exports, and admin access accordingly. The settings screen never displays the full key after save.</li>
<li>Third parties: your provider may log, retain, or process inputs and outputs under their terms, privacy policy, and region. You are responsible for choosing a provider, model, and data‑processing agreement that meet your legal obligations (including those owed to ticket authors and end users).</li>
<li>Disclosure: if your organisation must tell customers when AI is used on their data, handle that in your own policies, ticket footers, or contracts—the plugin does not send automatic customer notices for AI use.</li>
</ul>
If neither WordPress Core AI nor Smart Support AI is configured, no ticket content is sent to an LLM API by this feature.
