I created a desk ticket via API successfully, but i don’t see the ticket display on Sendbird dashboard.  
Or maybe I missed any logic to display on dashboard.  
Please help to check.

Hello @zdungx,

Until a customer sends the first message, agents can’t see the ticket on the dashboard.

There are two ways to send a message as a customer

1. Using Chat SDK - As `SendBird` instance in a client app is connected to Sendbird server, Desk related events are delivered to the Chat SDK’s [event handlers](https://sendbird.com/docs/chat/v4/javascript/event-handler/managing-channel-event-handlers/add-or-remove-a-channel-event-handler). The event handlers receive callbacks from the server through the `onMessageReceived()` , `onUserJoined()` , and other event callback methods.

2. Using Platform API - When you create a ticket using Desk platform api an `channelUrl` is generated in response using that you can [send a message using Chat SDK Platform API](https://sendbird.com/docs/chat/v3/platform-api/message/messaging-basics/send-a-message#1-send-a-message)

Hi @uday.bhaskar  
thank you for your quick response.  
So we must send a message as a customer to display the desk ticket on Sendbird Dashboard. right?  
I will use Platform API.

Yeah it is mandatory to send a first message as customer to display the ticket created in the dashboard.
