Keep Zendesk customer follow-ups on your Salesforce task list

New Zendesk ticket, clear next step. Ask Notis to create a Salesforce task with the ticket details and follow-up needed.

Trigger

New Zendesk Ticket

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

Action

Create task

Creates a new task in salesforce to track activities, to-dos, and follow-ups related to contacts, leads, or other records.

Why this helps

Important customer requests can disappear between the support queue and the sales team's follow-up list.

  • Keep customer follow-ups visible in Salesforce.
  • Carry the ticket context into the task description.
  • Reduce manual copying between support and sales.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Zendesk and Salesforce once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis to create a Salesforce task for new tickets that need follow-up, including the available ticket context and next step.
  • 4Pick the New Zendesk Ticket trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test the automation with one real ticket and check the Salesforce task.

Questions about this workflow

Will every new ticket create a task?

Describe which tickets need follow-up in your instruction. Notis can use details present in the ticket; if a needed detail is missing, it cannot infer it.

Does this assign the task to a Salesforce record?

The task action can create a task with the information in your instruction. Include a Salesforce record reference if you need it associated with a particular record.
