Anonymize requester data in new Zendesk tickets

Keep support moving while reducing exposure of personal information in ticket workflows.

Trigger

New Zendesk Ticket

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

Action

Anonymize Value

Tool to anonymize a string or array of string values. use when you need to conceal sensitive text before storage or transmission. example: `anonymizevalue().execute(anonymizevaluerequest(data=['secret']))` limitations: only supports list of strings, not nested structures.

Why this helps

Tickets often contain personal identifiers that get copied into notes, escalations, and external tools.

  • Reduces personal data exposure during ticket handling
  • Creates a consistent first step for new tickets
  • Lets support teams focus on resolution instead of redaction

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Zendesk and Anonyflow once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations for ticket requester privacy.
  • 3In one instruction, tell Notis to extract sensitive requester strings from each new ticket and anonymize them with Anonyflow.
  • 4Choose New Zendesk Ticket as the trigger.
  • 5Select a report channel and test with one real ticket.
