Zendesk Overview#

The Zendesk API enables seamless integration of Zendesk's customer service platform with your existing business processes and third-party applications. By leveraging this API with Pipedream, you can automate ticket tracking, sync customer data, escalate issues, and streamline communication across multiple channels. This can significantly increase efficiency, accelerate response times, and enhance the overall customer experience. Automations can range from simple notifications to complex workflows involving data transformation and multi-step actions across various services.

Trigger Configuration#

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI and CLI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
Zendesk	`app`	`app`	This component uses the Zendesk app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
N/A	`http`	`$.interface.http`	This component uses `$.interface.http` to generate a unique URL when the component is first instantiated. Each request to the URL will trigger the `run()` method of the component.
Trigger Category ID	`categoryId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Custom Subdomain	`customSubdomain`	`string`	For Enterprise Zendesk accounts: optionally specify the subdomain to use. This will override the subdomain that was provided when connecting your Zendesk account to Pipedream.

Fields	`fields`	`string[]`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
JSON Body	`jsonBody`	`string`	Custom JSON Body of the incoming payload. Setting `jsonBody` will overwrite the `fields` prop

Trigger Authentication#

Zendesk uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your Zendesk account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Zendesk and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any Zendesk API.

Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:
