Step 1: Activate Plugin

  • Login to your ClickDesk Dashboard and configure your operators.
  • Paste the live chat code in your webpages to receive live chats and voice calls.
  • Navigate to Live chat -> Plugins & Integrations


Step 2: Plugin Settings

  • Go to 'Plugin & Integrations' settings in your Live chat options page in the dashboard.
  • Click on the Zendesk block and enter your Zendesk URL and login credentials.
  • Do not alter the text in the Zendesk Query field.


Step 3: Offline Messages

  • When a visitor leaves an offline message in ClickDesk, it automatically creates a new ticket in Zendesk for your operators to follow up later.
  • To set up notifications, go to Admin settings -> Email notifications.
  • In the 'Offline Message Email Notifications' block, enter your Zendesk support email address.




Step 4: View Customer Info

  • When a live chat is initiated by a visitor, all the open tickets for that customer are displayed on the operator's IM.
  • From the 'Zendesk Query' field in the Step 2, you can configure the system to report all tickets or only the open or closed tickets of the customer in live chat.


Step 5: Create New Tickets

  • You can create a new ticket in Zendesk on behalf of the customer during live chat right from your Google Talk or Skype.
  • To create a new ticket with the chat-transcript as the ticket message, use '/ticket' command in Gtalk or '\ticket' in Skype during the chat conversation.


Step 6: Update Ticket

  • You can update a ticket in Zendesk without logging into the admin area by sending a command right from the IM, even if more than one ticket is open for the customer.
  • To update an existing ticket of the customer in live chat, send '/update ticketnumber message' command in GTalk or '\update ticketnumber message' in Skype.
