Syncing Pipedrive and Zendesk

The Zendesk integration is read-only. Conversations are synched by the person’s email address and visible under all three linked entities: deals, people and organizations.

Upon installation, the Zendesk Support integration will be displayed as a section on the left side of your Detail View.

Note: Only users who have the integration installed will be able to see the Zendesk Support panel on the left side.

This section displays up to 20 Zendesk tickets. The status of each Pipedrive ticket is displayed as it is in Zendesk Support. To view the ticket itself, click on the “Subject” to be redirected to the ticket in Zendesk.

If there are no tickets linked to the contact, the integration will inform you about it.

The Pipedrive widget is available on the right-hand side within individual tickets.

In this widget, Zendesk users will be able to see:

  • Deal title and status
  • Deal value and its currency
  • Deal creation date
