Add User to Segment via Trigger in Zendesk

Is there a way to automatically add a user to a user segment via a trigger in Zendesk?

Currently, there is no direct way to add a user to a user segment via a trigger in Zendesk. User segments are based on 'real' tags, and the workaround using custom user fields does not support this.

The method described in the help docs allows you to initiate a trigger based on a custom user field, but it doesn't directly add a user to a user segment. If this feature is important to you, consider posting a feature request in Zendesk's feedback forum, as the Product Team regularly reviews it for potential enhancements.
