Triggers for Salesforce and Zendesk Data Sync
What triggers a data sync between Salesforce and Zendesk?
A data sync between Salesforce and Zendesk is triggered when a mapped field in a Salesforce record is updated or when a new record is created.
It's important to note that updates to unmapped fields do not trigger a sync. This means that for a sync to occur, you must ensure that at least one of the mapped fields is modified. This functionality allows for seamless integration and data consistency between Salesforce and Zendesk.
