Steps to Add a New Agent in Zendesk
What are the steps to add a new agent to Zendesk?
Adding a new agent to Zendesk involves a few straightforward steps. First, ensure the agent is added as a new Staff user if they aren't already part of your account. You can find detailed instructions on this process in the Zendesk help articles.
Once the agent is added, navigate to their user profile by going to Admin Center > People > Team > Team members, or use the search function to locate their profile. From there, you can manage their roles and access to different Zendesk products by clicking 'Manage role in Admin Center' in the left sidebar. This allows you to review and adjust their permissions as needed.
