What is the logic behind the Zendesk integration with MyOperator?

Short answer: When calls are answered or missed, Zendesk tickets are automatically created. The tickets are assigned based on email ID matching between Zendesk and MyOperator. If users are added or modified, a manual sync request is required to ensure ticket routing remains accurate.

📈 What this integration does

This integration ensures that:

  • Zendesk tickets are created automatically for answered and missed calls.
  • Answered calls are assigned to the answering agent.
  • Missed calls are assigned to the admin by default.
  • No call goes undocumented — every interaction is tracked in Zendesk for improved visibility and response time.

🔄 Ticket creation logic

  • Answered calls:
    • When an agent answers a call, a Zendesk ticket is created and automatically assigned to the answering agent.
  • Missed calls:
    • If the call is missed, a ticket is still created and assigned to the admin (or configured group).

📧 Email ID matching

  • Email matching between Zendesk and MyOperator is crucial for correct ticket assignment.
  • Why it matters: If the agent email IDs don’t match across both systems, the ticket won’t be assigned to the correct agent.
  • Tip: Always ensure that agent emails are synchronized across Zendesk and MyOperator for proper ticket routing.

🔄 User sync & dependency

  • Manual user sync request is required when new users are added or existing ones are modified in either Zendesk or MyOperator.
  • Why it matters: This ensures that when agents are added or their details change, tickets continue to be routed to the correct person without disruption.
  • Request process: Contact MyOperator Support to perform the user sync.

🎯 Expected outcomes & success validation

  • Answered calls should create a Zendesk ticket assigned to the agent.
  • Missed calls should create a Zendesk ticket assigned to admin or a specified group.
  • Tickets should include the call direction (inbound/outbound), agent (via email match), and call metadata (duration, status, etc.).

Success validation:

  1. Place an answered test call and confirm that a Zendesk ticket is created and assigned to the correct agent.
  2. Place a missed test call and ensure that a Zendesk ticket is created and assigned to the admin or designated group.
