With Zendesk integration you can connect your Chatfuel automation to your Zendesk account. This lets you automatically sync data between the two sites.

What can it do?

When something happens in Chatfuel, there are 2 main actions you can sync to Zendesk:
1. Create a new contact. 2. Create a new ticket.

Use case examples

Create a Zendesk lead when:
  • A contact shows interest in your products in Chatfuel
  • A contact leaves their contact info in your Chatfuel automation
  • A contact asks about pricing or scheduling a sales call in Chatfuel
Create a new Zendesk ticket when:
  • A customer has a support question or request in your Chatfuel automation
  • A lead is generated in Chatfuel and needs follow-up from support
  • A contact requests a call or meeting in Chatfuel
