Setting Up Zendesk SLA with Salesforce

Learn how to configure a Zendesk SLA based on Salesforce user or organization data with syncing and mapping.

How do I set up a Zendesk SLA based on Salesforce user or organization?

To set up a Zendesk SLA based on a Salesforce user or organization, you need to configure syncing and mapping between the two platforms.

First, ensure you have a Professional or Enterprise level Zendesk account and the Zendesk for Salesforce app installed. You'll also need a Group or Professional edition of Salesforce. Start by configuring user and organization syncing in Salesforce, opting for an ongoing sync to keep data up-to-date. Then, select a pairing to modify its sync settings, choosing between Accounts and Organizations, Leads and Users, or Contacts and Users. Finally, establish a Tag or Field mapping in Salesforce to apply a tag to a Zendesk ticket, which will trigger the SLA. For more details, visit theoriginal link.
