Desk.com

Customer support

  1. Create the channel you'd like to use for Desk.com notifications.

    Keep in mind you still need to create the channel first even if you are using this recommendation.

  2. Create a bot for Desk.com. Make sure that you select Incoming webhook as the Bot type.

  3. Next, in Desk.com, open your Admin view via the top-left dropdown. In the Admin view, click on Apps, then click Install under Custom Action:

  4. From there, click Install Custom Action and accept the terms. Fill in the form like this:

    • Name: Zulip
    • Authentication Method: Basic Auth
    • URL: https://python-terrascript.zulipchat.com/api/v1/external/deskdotcom
    • User name: your bot's user name, e.g., desk-bot@yourdomain.com
    • Password: your bot's API key

  5. Click Create to save your settings. From the next screen, click Add Action to add a new action. You'll do this for every action you want a notification on Zulip for. (To add another action later, look for your custom action on the Apps page under Installed Apps.)

  6. Let's say you want a notification each time a case is updated. Put in a descriptive name like Announce case update, select POST a string to a URL for Action Type, and copy-paste this to the Appended URL path:

    ?stream=desk&topic={{ case.id }}:+{{ case.subject }}

    The "appended URL path" will be the same for every notification — it makes sure the notification goes to the appropriate channel and topic within Zulip.

  7. Next, copy this template Zulip message into Message to POST:

    Case [{{ case.id }}, {{ case.subject }}]({{ case.direct_url }}), was updated.
    
    * Status: {{ case.status.name }}
    * Priority: {{ case.priority }}
    * Customer: {{ customer.name }}
    * Company: {{ customer.company }}
    * Description: {{ case.description }}
    

    You don't need to edit that, although you may if you wish. All the funny-looking stuff inside {{ and }} will be filled in by Desk.com for each event. The dialog should look like this:

  8. Click Add Action to save, and then on the next screen, click the slider next to the action to enable it. This is important — actions are turned off by default!

  9. Now you need to create a rule that triggers this action. Desk.com's support center has a lengthy article on rules, but in short, click on Cases up at the top, Rules on the left side, and then the specific event you want to notify on — in our example, Inbound Interaction.

  10. Select the types of interaction you want your rule to apply to, such as Chat. Specify the name and click on Add Rule.

  11. In the next screen, provide the details. First, click Add Actions to display the rule actions. Select Trigger an App Action in the dropdown, and then the name of the custom action you created earlier when the second dropdown appears. You can add additional All or Any conditions if desired. Also select when the rule should run (if not Anytime) and enable it.

  12. Finally, click Update.

You're done! Your Desk.com notifications may look like this:

When a case is updated, you'll see a notification like the one above, to the channel desk, with a topic that matches the case's subject name.
