Pinning External Content in Zendesk

Learn about Zendesk's new feature to pin external content to tickets, enhancing knowledge management.

What is the new feature for pinning external content in Zendesk?

Zendesk now allows you to pin external content to tickets, enhancing your ability to manage information. Previously, only articles or posts could be pinned, but now you can associate external content with a ticket, making it visible in the knowledge section of the context panel under 'Pinned to ticket'. This pinned content is not visible to end users, and you can easily unpin it when it's no longer relevant.

This update also includes improved breadcrumbs for external content, showing the external source name under the content title. This feature is available for Guide Enterprise or Suite Enterprise accounts, and requires preconfiguration of federated search. For more details, visit theoriginal announcement.
