Frequently Asked Questions

Didn't find your answer? Please don't hesitate to reach out.

How do I authenticate with Zendesk Support?

The zendesk-support connector supports API token authentication. You need to provide your Zendesk account email address and an API token generated from the Zendesk Admin Center.

Can I use this connector with any AI agent framework?

The connector is compatible with any Python-based AI agent framework including LangChain, LlamaIndex, CrewAI, Pydantic AI, and custom implementations.

Does this connector support write operations?

No, the zendesk-support connector does not currently support write operations. As shown in the Unsupported questions section, operations like creating tickets, updating priorities, assigning tickets, deleting tickets, and sending automatic responses are not available. The connector focuses on read operations for analytics and insights.

How is this different from the Airbyte data connector?

Agent connectors are specifically designed for AI agents and LLM applications. They provide natural language interfaces, optimized response formats, and seamless integration with agent frameworks, unlike traditional ETL-focused connectors.

Will there be a platform for agent connectors?

The hosted version with secure credential storage through Airbyte Cloud is already available. See the hosted usage section in the documentation for setup instructions.
