Find indexed account context when a Zendesk user is created
Automatically check a designated Elasticsearch index for useful context tied to a newly created Zendesk user.
Trigger
New User Created
Triggers when a new user is created.
Action
Query Index
Searches an Elasticsearch index for documents.
Why this helps
A new user record can arrive without the account or product context your team needs to make the next interaction useful.
- Check whether relevant account context is already indexed.
- Reduce manual lookups after a user record is created.
- Make missing or inconclusive context visible in a run report.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Zendesk and Elasticsearch once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis to create one from any channel.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to search the specified Elasticsearch index for documents matching the new user's email or other provided identifier, and summarize relevant results or say when none are found.
- 4Choose the New User Created trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real user record and check that the results are appropriate.
Questions about this workflow
Does this enrich or update the Zendesk user record?
No. The allowed Elasticsearch action searches an index. The workflow summarizes results in its run report and does not update Zendesk.
Can it find a user if the email is not indexed?
Only if another identifier or searchable detail is present in both the event and indexed documents. Specify the available identifier in your instruction.
