Resolve Desync Issues After Instagram Updates

Learn how to fix desync issues between Instagram and Zendesk after updates to ensure ticket creation.

What should I do if Instagram updates cause desync with Zendesk?

Instagram updates can sometimes cause a desync with your Zendesk account, affecting ticket creation.

To address this, you need to remove the Instagram Direct channel from your Zendesk account. Navigate to Admin Center > Messaging and social > Messaging, select the channel, and delete it. Then, unlink your Zendesk integration from Instagram users and re-add the Instagram channel. This should resolve the desync issue and allow messages to create tickets again.
