Zendesk Talk is a cloud-based Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) system that enables phone communication for customer support teams from within the Zendesk support ticketing solution. Yet another way Zendesk successfully heightens the customer experience, Zendesk Talk offers the capability to access phone numbers in more than 40 countries, making global communication personal.
1. First, you need to obtain your Zendesk Talk API credentials. You can do this by logging in to your Zendesk account and navigating to the Admin settings. From there, select the API option and generate a new API token. Make sure to copy the token as you will need it later.
2. Next, open the Airbyte platform and navigate to the Sources tab. Click on the "Create a new Source" button and select the Zendesk Talk connector from the list of available connectors.
3. In the configuration page, you will be prompted to enter your Zendesk Talk API credentials. Paste the API token you copied earlier into the appropriate field.
4. You will also need to enter the subdomain of your Zendesk account. This is the part of your Zendesk URL that comes before ".zendesk.com". For example, if your Zendesk URL is "https://example.zendesk.com", your subdomain would be "example".
5. Once you have entered your credentials, click on the "Check Connection" button to ensure that Airbyte can successfully connect to your Zendesk Talk account.
6. If the connection is successful, you can proceed to configure the specific data you want to sync from Zendesk Talk to Airbyte. This can include call logs, recordings, and other relevant data.
7. Finally, save your configuration and run your first sync to start pulling data from Zendesk Talk into Airbyte. You can schedule regular syncs to keep your data up-to-date and ensure that your analytics and reporting are accurate.
With Airbyte, creating data pipelines take minutes, and the data integration possibilities are endless. Airbyte supports the largest catalog of API tools, databases, and files, among other sources. Airbyte's connectors are open-source, so you can add any custom objects to the connector, or even build a new connector from scratch without any local dev environment or any data engineer within 10 minutes with the no-code connector builder.
We look forward to seeing you make use of it! We invite you to join the conversation on our community Slack Channel, or sign up for our newsletter. You should also check out other Airbyte tutorials, and Airbyte’s content hub!
