See [Request comments](#request-comments)\n| collaborators | array | no | Adds collaborators (cc's) to the request. An email notification is sent to them when the ticket is created.

Specifies the requester of the anonymous request.

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.\n"
