Run a persisted Contentful query for each new ticket

Use a fast, repeatable content lookup whenever support work begins.

Trigger

New Zendesk Ticket

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

Action

GraphQL Content API Persisted Query

Tool to execute a persisted GraphQL query via its SHA256 hash. Use after registering a query hash to run cached queries by hash. On first call include full query text; thereafter invoke with only hash and variables.

Why this helps

Repeated free form content searches can be slow and inconsistent for high volume support queues.

  • Standardize support lookups
  • Reduce query overhead
  • Return structured context quickly

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Zendesk and Contentful graphql once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation for the persisted support lookup.
  • 3Tell Notis to run the registered persisted query by hash with ticket variables and summarize the returned entries.
  • 4Pick New Zendesk Ticket as the trigger and choose where reports go.
  • 5Test with one real ticket.

Questions about this workflow

What must be registered first?

The persisted query hash and its query text must already be registered in Contentful.
