Password Reset: Google Connector vs. External Addresses

Learn the differences in handling password resets for Google connector and external addresses in Zendesk to maintain ticket creation.

How does a password reset process differ for Google connector and external addresses in Zendesk?

The password reset process in Zendesk differs for Google connector and other external addresses.

For Google connector addresses, after changing your email password, you need to reconnect the address by going to the Admin Center, opening the Support addresses page, and clicking the Reconnect button. For other external addresses, you must verify your forwarding by selecting Verify forwarding next to the address in the Admin Center. An email will be sent to verify the address, and you must click the link to approve it. These steps ensure that ticket creation continues without interruption.
