Roles in Ticketing
1) Ticketing Owner
Owners have overarching control and responsibility for the Ticketing Instance. They oversee the configuration, settings, and overall management of the Ticketing instance. Owners have the authority to make significant changes, such as modifying workflow configurations, managing user permissions, and accessing all tickets within the instance.

How to manage Ticketing Owners
How you manage owners depends on the membership mode of your instance. You have two options.
Option 1: Pick Ticketing Owners manually
When an instance uses Private or Public membership, you choose the owners yourself.
Open Settings and go to Instances.
Click to edit the Owner.
Search for the user and change their role to Owner.

Option 2: Sync owners from the Teams channel (Full Channel Sync)
With Full Channel Sync, your Ticketing owners are the same as the channel owners, so there is no separate list to maintain. This mode requires the instance to be installed in a Teams channel. For the steps, see managing instances from the personal app.

Voila! You have successfully configured who are the Ticketing owners in your instance.
