Viewing Related Object Records in Zendesk Tickets

Learn how to view related object records in Zendesk tickets using the record preview panel without leaving the ticket view.

How can I view related object records in Zendesk tickets?

You can view related object records in Zendesk tickets using the record preview panel. This feature allows you to see details about records related to the ticket you're working on without leaving the ticket view.

The record preview is part of the context panel and is closed by default. It only supports custom object records and requires that your account has at least one custom object. Additionally, your ticket form must have an active lookup relationship field pointing to a custom object, and a valid value must be set in the lookup field. Once these conditions are met, you can select a related record to preview its details directly in the customer context panel.Learn more
