Zendesk
Zendesk OAuth 2 Setup:
In order to set up OAuth 2 in Zendesk log in to your account and go to Admin -> API -> OAuth Clients and click the + button to setup a new OAuth application.
Once you have entered the required information and clicked Save you will be shown a Secret.
You will need to copy both your Unique Identifier and Secret that were created during this setup - into the Client ID and Client Secret fields - in the Zendesk Connector setup in Cyclr - respectively.
Updating deprecated Zendesk webhooks
Zendesk will soon deprecate HTTP targets within their API. To be compatible with this change, Cyclr has created new webhook methods that use webhooks instead of HTTP targets. As this is a Zendesk change, it means you have to replace these methods manually within your cycles. Information on Zendesk’s deprecation of HTTP targets and conversion to webhooks can be found here.
Removing deprecated webhooks
To remove deprecated Zendesk webhooks from a cycle:
- Go to a cycle that uses a Zendesk webhook.
- Click Stop to stop the cycle running, and then Finish and Stop to allow any transactions to complete.
- Click Delete step to delete the webhook and then click OK to confirm the deletion. This automatically removes targets and triggers associated with the webhook from Zendesk.
Adding new webhooks
To add the new Zendesk webhooks to a cycle:
- Find the updated Zendesk webhook methods under Application Connectors > Zendesk > Webhooks in the cycle builder.
- Drag the required webhook onto the cycle builder.
- Connect the webhook back to the cycle.
- Click Step setup for each step within the cycle and check for invalid mappings. Fix as required.
- Click Run to restart the cycle. This automatically adds webhooks and triggers associated with the webhook to Zendesk.
