FAQ

Questions about Airtable + Zendesk.

Why mirror Zendesk tickets into Airtable?
Product wants bug reports they can vote on. Sales wants visibility into account-specific issues. Engineering wants tickets linked to GitHub PRs. Airtable becomes the cross-team view layer that Zendesk alone can't be.
How do I keep Airtable in sync with Zendesk ticket status?
Zendesk Ticket Updated trigger → look up the Airtable row by ticket ID → Update Record with the new status, priority, assignee. Mirror as one-way (Zendesk → Airtable) to avoid sync loops.
Can I add custom Airtable columns Zendesk doesn't have?
Yes — the whole point of mirroring. Add Airtable-only columns like "Customer Tier", "Linked Bug", "Voting Score" that the support team doesn't need but product or success do. They live in Airtable, not Zendesk.
How do I push an Airtable update back as a Zendesk internal note?
Airtable Record Updated → Zendesk Add Comment with public=false. Useful for posting product-side context ("This is fix is in PR #1234") back into the ticket so support has the latest info.
Can I auto-create an Airtable row only for tickets matching a tag?
Yes. Add a Filter node after the trigger that checks the ticket's tags array for your target tag (e.g., "bug-report"). Other tickets pass through Zendesk without touching Airtable.
How do I link multiple Zendesk tickets to one Airtable feature request?
Maintain an Airtable "Feature Requests" table with a linked-records column to "Tickets". The intake workflow either creates a new feature row or links the new ticket to an existing one (matched by AI classification on the body).
