Zendesk Ticket Update Notifications Explained

Learn how Zendesk automatically sends email notifications to customers when tickets are created or updated, and how you can customize these notifications.

How does Zendesk handle ticket update notifications to customers?

Zendesk automatically sends email notifications to customers when a ticket is created or updated. This means you don't have to manually inform customers that their support request has been received. The email includes a link to the ticket, allowing customers to track and update it if needed. Customers can also reply to the notification email, which adds a new comment to the ticket. You can customize these email templates to match your branding or even remove the ticket link if you prefer.Learn more
