Understanding User Hierarchy in Zendesk Sell

Discover how to use the User Hierarchy in Zendesk Sell to manage user permissions and relationships effectively.

What is the User Hierarchy in Zendesk Sell and how do I use it?

The User Hierarchy in Zendesk Sell provides a visual overview of user permissions and relationships. It allows you to see how users and managers are connected.

To use the User Hierarchy, you must activate it if you're on a mid-level Sell plan. Administrators can edit and move users within the hierarchy, while users can adjust their own position and that of their reportees. Moving a user in the hierarchy doesn't change their permission settings but may affect their access to certain teams or deals.
