Zendesk
ToolJet can connect to Zendesk APIs to read and write data using OAuth 2.0, which helps us to limit an application's access to a user's account.
Connection​
To establish a connection with the Zendesk data source, you can either click on the + Add new Data source button located on the query panel or navigate to the Data Sources page from the ToolJet dashboard and choose Zendesk as the data source.
ToolJet connects to your Zendesk app using :
- Zendesk Sub-domain
- Client ID
- Client Secret
Authorization Scopes​
You can create a Zendesk data source with one of either of the two permission scopes :
- Read Only
- Read and Write
You must first be a verified user to make Zendesk API requests. This is configured in the Admin Center interface in Apps and integrations > APIs > Zendesk APIs. For more information, see Security and Authentication in the Zendesk Support API reference or check out Zendesk's docs.
