Efficient Data Collection from Zendesk Using APIs
How can I efficiently collect large amounts of data from Zendesk?
To efficiently collect large amounts of data from Zendesk, use the incremental export endpoint instead of list endpoints. This API provides near real-time data and allows you to select data with time as the index, offering precision in data collection.
The incremental exports API also supports cursor pagination, which results in faster response times. This method is ideal for ongoing data collection without hitting rate limits.
