Introduction

What is Zendesk?

Zendesk is a customer service software that helps businesses manage and respond to customer inquiries across various channels like email, chat, and social media. It streamlines support operations by providing a unified platform for tracking, prioritizing, and resolving customer issues efficiently.

What is CogniVis AI?

CogniVis AI is a platform that enables you to pull data from different sources and combine them with each other to create practically useful AI tools. Sources may include your internal company knowledgebase and a variety of most popular business apps like GitHub, Jira, Slack, and more.

This enables you to easily create AI chatbot assistants (internal), custom generators and even embeddable AI chat widgets trained on your data.

How CogniVis AI works with Zendesk?

The Zendesk Connector retrieves all key data from tickets, users, and interactions within a specified Zendesk account.

What exact sources are pulled:

  • Tickets
  • Ticket subject
  • Ticket description/content
  • Date created/updated
  • Ticket requester
  • Ticket assignee
  • Ticket status (e.g., Open, Pending, Solved, Closed)
  • Ticket priority (if ticket priority is enabled in the Zendesk instance)
  • Ticket tags (if tagging is enabled and accessible through the API)
  • Ticket URL (if the connector has access to Zendesk's web interface or if the API provides direct URLs)
  • Users
  • User name
  • User email
  • User role (e.g., Agent, Admin, End-user)
  • Comments
  • Comment content
  • Comment author
  • Date of comment
  • Attachments (if the connector supports retrieving attachment details through the Zendesk API)
