Set custom close status when closing CTAs by CTA ID in Rules Engine

Hi all,

As it stands today, when closing CTAs by CTA ID, the status of the CTA is closed under the default Close Status as it is configured within Admin > Calls To Action > Status.

As an  enhancement request, could users be able to select a CTA Status of their preference, even when closing CTAs by CTA ID within the Rules Engine? Are there any technical limitations that would prevent this?

Thanks!
Josh

    +1 to this. We recently ran into this issue where a CTA was deactivated and we wanted to close out the open CTAs with a “Closed by Ops” status. I was surprised that the status cannot be selected via Rules Engine

    Update: We have hit a technical limitation and are trying to figure out a solution for this. We will keep you posted on the progress. Thank you for understanding.

    This is definitely something I would like to see fixed. I imagine the technical limitations have to do with different status options for different CTA types, but our use case would be solved even if it only allowed status options that are available on all CTA types. Or just add Type as a required identifier alongside the CTA GSID.

    Supposedly that technical limitation was encountered 6 months ago though. Any progress since then?

    Looking for an update here as well. It is a bummer how close to ideal this feature is, and then it isn’t.

    We are looking to close a subset of overdue CTAs as Closed - No Action and are unable to since we cannot adjust the criteria necessary for these particular CTAs. Being able to set the Closed CTA status and identify by CTA GSID would be incredibly helpful.

    I understand Gainsight is looking to improve the ability to change CTAs using Rules and hope this is in scope on the near-term roadmap!  athenahealth has also struggled with wanting to use a unique status when identifying a CTA for closure with the existing framework.

    Hi team,

     

    I wanted to jump back to this thread and check if the “Update CTA Action” in the new “Horizon Rules” have helped solve the issue discussed above. Please let me know if there are any other concerns.

     

    Thanks,

    Thank you for following up!  We love Rules Horizon for its features in Update CTA that allow us to set any status, including the Closed ones.  It is misleading that the action of Close CTA still does not allow for different types of Closed statuses and we wondered what its function is in the Horizon version?
