Our native Zendesk integration displays the New, Open, Pending, On Hold, Closed and Solved Zendesk tickets associated with a Lead, Person, Company, or Opportunity in the ‘Related’ section of that record.
In this module, we'll tackle the following:
Understand the Zendesk Integration
The Zendesk integration displays the Zendesk tickets associated with a lead, person, company, opportunity in the ‘Related’ section of that record. This is what it will look like on each record:
For each ticket shown, the following details are displayed:
Subject
Date and Time (at which the ticket was created). Tickets are sorted by creation date in the display.
Requester
Assignee
Status
To the right of each ticket, you can click the icon to open the ticket in Zendesk:
The list of tickets is as long as you select when setting up the integration. Below the initial number of tickets displayed, you can click to expand the list.
Tickets are displayed in order of created date.
Tickets show up on each record based on a unique identifier for that record type. For lead and person records, we pull in tickets associated with the email address on the record. For company records, we pull in tickets associated with the email domain of the company. For opportunity records, we use the email domain of the company associated to the opportunity (if it exists). If not, we'd use the email domain of the company of the primary contact on the opportunity (if it exists). If we still don't have that information, we use the email address of the primary contact on the opportunity.
