(lightbulb) Understanding Ticket Details

Before proceeding with the bulk update process, it is essential to have a clear understanding of ticket details. Ticket details consist of key-value pairs, where each key represents a specific category or attribute, and the corresponding value contains the associated information. As a result, one key can be mapped with multiple different values. For example:

  • Key: "Entrance"
    Value: "A12"
  • Key: "Gate Opening"
    Value: "16:00"
  • Key: "Special Instructions"
    Value: "Accessible seating required"
