With a HaloPSA integration in Lifecycle Insights, you can create and manage HaloPSA tickets directly within Lifecycle Insights.
Enabling Halo Ticket Integration
In order to create and manage Halo Tickets from Lifecycle Insights, you'll need to ensure that the correct permissions have been set.
For full instructions, check out Integrating with HaloPSA |
If your primary integration source is HaloPSA, ticket integration will be automatically enabled. You will need to ensure that the API security role in HaloPSA has the correct permissions applied, as mentioned in the note above.
If you have a supplemental PSA integration set up with HaloPSA, you will need to ensure that the above permissions are applied and that the option to enable ticket features for HaloPSA is checked in Lifecycle Insights.
To enable the features in Lifecycle Insights, follow these steps:
- Click Integrations from the navigation bar on the left of Lifecycle Insights
- Click HaloPSA from the Supplemental PSA section of the integrations page
- Check the box beside Pull Tickets from Halo
- Click Save Settings

Creating HaloPSA tickets
Wherever you click the Create PSA Ticket button in Lifecycle Insights, the process for creating the ticket is the same.

The following fields are supported:

- Ticket Summary
- Ticket Details
After entering the details, click Save to create the ticket in HaloPSA.
