Resolve object identity quickly when a ticket uses incomplete names or descriptions.

Trigger

New Zendesk Ticket

Triggers when a new ticket is created in a specified Zendesk view.

Action

Find Object

Tool to find the first object matching a query or filter in an index. use when debugging relevance or filter logic after confirming index exists.

Why this helps

Agents spend time guessing which indexed object a customer is referring to.

  • Identify records faster
  • Reduce wrong record updates
  • Improve ticket investigation

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Zendesk and Algolia in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation for object identification.
  • 3Tell Notis to find the first matching object using the ticket description and report its object ID and key fields.
  • 4Pick New Zendesk Ticket as the trigger.
  • 5Choose a report channel and test with one ambiguous ticket.

Questions about this workflow

What if several objects could match?

Tell Notis to report ambiguity instead of selecting automatically.

Does it update the object?

No. It only finds and reports a matching object.
