Enable Salesforce Logs for Zendesk Sync Debugging
How can I enable Salesforce logs to debug ticket sync issues?
To enable Salesforce logs for debugging ticket sync issues, log in to Salesforce with an Administrator account. Navigate to Setup > Environments > Logs > Debug Logs and create a new User Trace Flag. Set the Traced Entity Type to 'User' and select the user used to authenticate from Zendesk to Salesforce.
Set the Start Date to the current datetime and the End Date to 30 minutes later. Ensure the Debug Level includes 'DEBUG' for Apex Code and System. Save the settings, and you can start debugging by creating a ticket in Zendesk that meets the trigger conditions.
