    Zendesk

    Available for

    • Enterprise Edition

    Get in touch with Sales for licensing questions.

    Zendesk connector allows the downloading of source content and uploading of translations to/from Zendesk for the following content types:

    • Articles, Sections, and Categories in the Guide module.

    • Dynamic text in the Support module.

    Use Cases

    There are a number of use cases for the connector:

    • Project Managers can add files directly to projects from an online repository.

    • Set up the Automation Widget allowing Submitters to add files to requests directly from the online repository.

    • Use Automated Project Creation (APC) to have Memsource automatically create new projects when a change in the last edited date (edited_at attribute) is detected for monitored files or an entire list.

      • Selected files are imported the very first time APC runs.

    • The Connector API can be used to automate steps otherwise performed manually through the UI. Webhooks can be used to have Memsource notify 3rd party systems about certain events (for example, a job status change).

    Zendesk Settings

    1. Zendesk Support: Go to Account in the Admin section and configure target languages.

    2. Zendesk Guide: Go to Language settings in the Admin section and configure target languages.

    • Memsource connector languages are set according to the languages in Zendesk Support.

      English in Zendesk is actually English (United States) full locale.

    • Zendesk Guide offers more locales than Zendesk Support. Ensure the same list of locales is selected (e.g. Norwegian in Support and Norwegian(Bokmål) in Guide are considered different languages).
