Zendesk

Connect Zendesk to klink.cloud and reply with AI Agent.

Overview

This guide walks you through connecting your Zendesk account to klink.cloud. Once connected, all of your Zendesk tickets appear directly in the klink.cloud Inbox, and you can configure an AI Agent to automatically respond to incoming Zendesk conversations.

What You'll Need

  • Admin access to your Zendesk account

  • Access to your klink.cloud workspace (app.klink.cloud)

  • Permission to create workflows in klink.cloud

Part 1 — Generate a Zendesk API Token

Step 1: Open the API Token settings in Zendesk

  1. Log in to your Zendesk account as an administrator.

  2. Go to Admin Center > Apps and integrations > APIs > API Configuration > Enable APIs

Step 2: Create the API Token

  1. Make sure Token Access is enabled.

  2. Click Add API token (or the plus icon).

  3. Optionally add a description, for example "klink.cloud integration", so you can identify it later.

Step 3: Copy the API Token

  1. Copy the generated token and store it somewhere safe.

  2. Click Save to finalize the token.

Important: The full token is only shown once at creation. If you lose it, you will need to generate a new one. You will also need your Zendesk subdomain (the part before .zendesk.com in your URL) and your admin email address to complete the connection.

Part 2 — Connect Zendesk in klink.cloud

Step 4: Open the integration settings

  1. Go to app.klink.cloud and log in.

  2. Navigate to Message & Integration.

Step 5: Connect Zendesk

  1. Select Connect Zendesk.

  2. Enter your Zendesk subdomain, admin email, and paste the API Token you copied in Part 1.

  3. Save the connection.

Once the connection is successful, your Zendesk tickets will start syncing into klink.cloud.

Step 6: View Zendesk tickets in the Inbox

After setup, open the Inbox in klink.cloud. All of your Zendesk tickets will appear there alongside your other channels, giving you a single unified view to manage every conversation.

Part 3 — Enable the AI Agent

To have the AI Agent automatically handle incoming Zendesk conversations, create a workflow that routes new Zendesk chats to the AI Agent.

Step 7: Create the workflow

Set up a workflow with the following logic:

Component
Configuration

Trigger

When a new chat room is opened

Condition

Channel is Zendesk

Action

Assign to AI Agent

In plain terms: When a new chat room is opened, and the channel is Zendesk, assign the conversation to the AI Agent.

Step 8: Save and activate

  1. Save the workflow.

  2. Make sure the workflow is active.

New Zendesk conversations will now be automatically routed to the AI Agent, which will reply on your behalf.

Summary

  1. Generate an API Token in Zendesk Admin Center.

  2. Connect Zendesk in klink.cloud under Message & Integration.

  3. View all Zendesk tickets in the klink.cloud Inbox.

  4. Create a workflow to assign new Zendesk chats to the AI Agent.
