Zendesk
Connect Zendesk for ticket-based hand-off from chat and email channels.
Setup
- Open Settings → Hand-off and select Zendesk.
- Create connection and provide your Zendesk subdomain (for example
yourcompanyif the URL isyourcompany.zendesk.com). - Add authentication as the form requests, commonly an API token with a matching agent email, or OAuth if offered.
- Save and use Test when available, then wire the connection under Agents → Hand-off.
What you get
Hand-off creates or updates Zendesk tickets with conversation context according to the integration’s current behavior.
Feature notes
- Tickets vs email: Zendesk is appropriate when you need ticket IDs, assignment rules, and SLAs inside Zendesk.
- Evolving behavior: Field mapping, internal notes vs public replies, and attachments may differ from other providers. Validate in a sandbox Zendesk before production.
