Setting up the integration involves a few key steps:
- Ensure that your Salesforce session settings are not locked to an IP address, as this could disconnect the integration once a session expires.
- Connect Zendesk to Salesforce through the Admin Center by selecting the Salesforce instance for setup. It's recommended to test this integration first with your sandbox accounts.
- Define which user profiles in Salesforce can view Zendesk tickets, ensuring that the System Administrator profile is selected among others to allow for full visibility.
- Install the ticket sync package in Admin Center, which maps standard Zendesk ticket fields to Salesforce case fields, enabling the creation of Salesforce contacts from Zendesk tickets.
Additionally, you can configure user access to Zendesk tickets in Salesforce, select user profiles to view Zendesk tickets, and manage the integration settings to fit your specific requirements. Customization options are available to include additional information from Zendesk tickets or to adjust contact creation criteria based on your Salesforce setup.
By following these steps, you can ensure a successful integration between Zendesk and Salesforce, allowing for the automatic creation of Salesforce contacts from Zendesk tickets. This integration streamlines your customer service and CRM processes, reducing manual data entry, ensuring timely follow-up, and enhancing customer relationship management.
