Editing or Deleting Personal Macros in Zendesk

Find out how Zendesk admins can edit or delete personal macros using the API or marketplace apps.

Can Zendesk admins edit or delete personal macros?

Currently, Zendesk admins cannot directly edit or delete personal macros through the Admin Center. The feature is limited to viewing macros only. However, admins can use the Zendesk API or a marketplace app to edit or delete macros if necessary.

If an admin needs to make changes to a macro, they can either request the agent who owns the macro to make the changes or use the API to do so themselves. Zendesk is aware of the demand for more comprehensive management capabilities and is considering extending these features in the future.
