Workaround for adding end users as CCs in Zendesk

Learn about a workaround to add end users as CCs in Zendesk using HTTP targets or webhooks.

What is a workaround for adding end users as CCs in Zendesk?

While Zendesk does not natively support adding end users as CCs through triggers, there is a workaround using HTTP targets or webhooks. This involves setting up an HTTP target or webhook and configuring a trigger to notify this target with specific JSON data.

For example, you can set up an HTTP target in the Extensions menu and use a trigger to notify the target with JSON that specifies additional collaborators. Although this method is not officially supported and may be considered a workaround, it can be effective for certain use cases. Keep in mind that HTTP is being deprecated, so transitioning to webhooks is recommended.
