What should I do if a lead already exists in Zendesk Sell for a Support ticket requester?

If a lead or contact already exists in Zendesk Sell for a Support ticket requester, the option to create a new lead will not be available. The Zendesk Sell app checks for existing matches before allowing the creation of a new lead.

In such cases, you can update the existing lead or contact with any new information from the Support ticket. This ensures that your sales data remains accurate and up-to-date without creating duplicate entries.
