        #### Additional properties


        In addition to the writable request properties in the [JSON Format table](#json-format) above, you can set the following properties when creating a request.


        | Name                | Type   | Mandatory | Comment

        | ----------------    | -------| --------- | -------

        | comment             | object | yes       | Describes the problem, incident, question, or task. See [Request comments](#request-comments)

        | collaborators       | array  | no        | Adds collaborators (cc''s) to the request. An email notification is sent to them when the ticket is created. See [Setting collaborators](/documentation/ticketing/managing-tickets/creating-and-managing-requests#setting-collaborators)

        | requester           | object | yes*      | \*Required for anonymous requests. Specifies the requester of the anonymous request. See [Creating anonymous requests](/documentation/ticketing/managing-tickets/creating-and-managing-requests#creating-anonymous-requests)


        #### Creating follow-up requests


        Once a ticket is closed (as distinct from solved), it can''t be reopened. However, you can create a new request that references the closed ticket. To create the follow-up request, include a `via_followup_source_id` property in the `request` object that specifies the closed ticket. The parameter only works with closed tickets. It has no effect with other tickets.

        #### Writable properties

        This endpoint can only update the following properties in the request.


        | Name                     | Type    | Required | Description                                          |

        | solved                   | boolean | no       | Marks the request as solved. Example: `{"request": {"solved": "true"}}`. End users can mark requests as solved only if the request''s `can_be_solved_by_me` property is true. The property is true only when the ticket is assigned to an agent and the ticket type is not a problem but a question, task, or incident |

        | additional_collaborators | array   | no       | Adds collaborators to the request. An email notification is sent to them when the ticket is updated. See [Adding collaborators](/documentation/ticketing/managing-tickets/creating-and-managing-requests#adding-collaborators) |
