Connect Zendesk for app review triage

Zendesk works best when a review becomes a support-owned item with enough context to decide whether to reply, investigate, or link the issue to an existing ticket. Start with a small set of urgent rules and verify the first handoff.

Follow these steps

Complete the workflow, then verify it

  1. 1

    Choose Zendesk as the destination

    In Create Flow, select Zendesk for the destination integration and follow the authorization steps shown by ReviewBot.

  2. 2

    Confirm the helpdesk account

    Choose the Zendesk account or subdomain that your support team uses. Confirm the connected account belongs to the intended environment before enabling delivery.

  3. 3

    Set triage rules

    Route low-star, billing, login, crash, or refund keywords to the support workflow that has an owner. Avoid sending every review into the same queue until the team has tested the volume.

  4. 4

    Decide the response path

    Use the review link and source context to decide whether the issue needs a public response, private support, or product follow-up. Keep private account details out of public replies.

  5. 5

    Test the ticket handoff

    Save the Flow and send a test alert. Verify the ticket or notification contains the review text, rating, source, app context, and original link.

Quick checklist

  • Zendesk authorization is complete.
  • The destination queue has an owner.
  • Rules map to a real support action.
  • A test review can be traced to its source.

If something does not work

The Zendesk destination is not available+

Reconnect the account and check that you returned to the same ReviewBot workspace. If the authorization succeeds but the destination remains unavailable, contact support with the non-sensitive setup details.

Tickets are duplicated or hard to route+

Narrow the Flow rules and separate urgent low-star or keyword work from a scheduled trend report. Keep one owner per queue.

Frequently asked questions

Should every review create a Zendesk ticket?+

Usually not. Use rules for reviews that need a support action and keep the complete stream in ReviewBot or a scheduled report.

Can I connect Zendesk and Slack?+

Yes. Use separate Flows when support needs tickets and product needs channel visibility, with rules that match each team’s action.
