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

Attachment names and links can reveal customer names, internal projects, or confidential identifiers.

  • Reduces accidental disclosure through filenames and links
  • Makes escalations safer to distribute
  • Handles privacy as part of ticket intake

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

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

Questions about this workflow

Does the workflow upload or modify attachments?

Can I limit it to filenames?
