Dynamic Filtering for Lookup Fields in Zendesk

Learn about dynamic filtering for lookup relationship fields in Zendesk, enhancing agent efficiency by showing only relevant data.

What is dynamic filtering for lookup relationship fields in Zendesk?

Dynamic filtering allows admins to define filters on ticket lookup relationship fields, restricting the information presented to agents to only what's relevant to the ticket they're working on. This means that instead of showing all possible data, the lookup fields can be filtered by the ticket's current user, assignee, requester, and organization, making it easier for agents to find the information they need quickly.

This change is part of Zendesk's effort to enhance the functionality of lookup relationship fields, which are used to define custom relationships between standard Zendesk objects and custom objects. By implementing dynamic filtering, Zendesk aims to improve agent efficiency and personalize the way agents interact with customers. For more details, you can check theoriginal announcement.
