1. What is your original issue/pain point you want to solve?  
I want to make calculations in a ticket with a 3rd-party-solution via webhook/API.

2. Which are one or two concrete situations where this problem hurts the most?  
In this case, calculate costs based of accounted time and a hourly rate from an external database. And the `PUT /api/v1/tickets/<id>`-call is firing agent notifications, even though this “change” is just a calculation result of a previous ticket update.

3. Why is it not solvable with the Zammad standard?  
There is no way to surpress agent notification on API-updates:

4. What is your expectation/what do you want to achieve?  
Preventing double notifications.
