Frequently Asked Questions about Google Forms + Zendesk integrations
New to automation with Zapier? You're not alone. Here are some answers to common questions about how Zapier works with Google Forms and Zendesk
How can I use Google Forms to automatically create tickets in Zendesk?
You can set up a Zap that triggers when a new response is submitted in Google Forms. Our integration allows this response to automatically create a ticket in Zendesk. Just ensure you map the form fields correctly to the ticket fields.
What triggers are available for Google Forms and Zendesk integration?
For Google Forms, we can trigger actions based on new responses. In Zendesk, actions you might automate include creating tickets, updating existing ones, or adding comments.
Is it possible to update an existing ticket in Zendesk with information from a Google Form?
Yes, by using specific identifiers from your Google Form responses as search parameters in Zendesk, we can update existing tickets with new information provided in form submissions.
How do I handle attachments from Google Forms when integrating with Zendesk?
Attachments uploaded via Google Forms can't be directly transferred due to platform restrictions. However, you may include links to files stored in cloud solutions like Google Drive as part of the ticket creation process in Zendesk.
Can I customize which form responses are sent to Zendesk as tickets?
Certainly! You can apply filters within the Zap setup that specify which form submissions should result in creating or updating a ticket. This way, only relevant responses trigger actions within zendesk.
What happens if there are errors during data transfer between Google Forms and Zendesk?
If errors occur, our monitoring system will alert you through your dashboard and via email notifications if configured. You'll also have access to detailed logs so you can troubleshoot any data transfer issues efficiently.
Can multiple Google Form responses be merged into a single Zendesk ticket?
Currently, each response will generate an individual ticket by default. However, following custom criteria using our tools may allow combining related responses into single threads by employing additional workflows outside standard operations.
