Zendesk Toolkit

The Zendesk toolkit connects Arcade to your Zendesk account, enabling agents and apps to manage support tickets, retrieve conversation history, search the Help Center knowledge base, and inspect account context.

Capabilities

  • Ticket management: List tickets with offset-based pagination, add public or internal comments, and mark tickets as solved (with an optional closing comment). All ticket responses include a direct html_url link.
  • Conversation history: Retrieve all comments on a ticket in chronological order, including the original description, author IDs, visibility (public/internal), timestamps, and file attachments.
  • Knowledge base search: Search published Help Center articles by query text and/or label names, with support for date filters and offset-based pagination. Multiple filters can be combined in a single call.
  • Account introspection: Fetch the authenticated user's profile, role, organization details, and Zendesk account context via a dedicated identity tool.

OAuth

This toolkit uses OAuth 2.0. The auth provider is Zendesk. See the Arcade Zendesk auth provider docs for setup instructions.

Secrets

  • ZENDESK_SUBDOMAIN — Your Zendesk subdomain identifies which Zendesk account to target. It is the {subdomain} portion of your Zendesk URL: https://{subdomain}.zendesk.com. You can find it by logging into Zendesk and inspecting the browser address bar, or under Admin Center → Account → Branding. This value is not a credential but is required for the toolkit to construct the correct API base URL.

Configure secrets in the Arcade secrets dashboard or via the Arcade secrets guide.
