Support and shared inboxes

Guile and Zendesk

Support tickets, with replies and internal notes, and who is waiting on a reply, read-only.

What Guile reads from Zendesk

Guile reads your tickets and their replies, including internal notes, plus the names of the customers and organizations they're about. Zendesk's sign-in asks only to read tickets, users and organizations, and Guile only reads. (As built on 2026-10-08, Guile asks for Pipedream's read-only sign-in; the live run confirms the screen.)

How to connect Zendesk

  1. In Guile, open Apps and choose Zendesk.
  2. Click Connect. A secure window opens from Pipedream, the service Guile uses to connect apps.
  3. Type your Zendesk subdomain: the first part of your Zendesk web address (for example, acme in acme.zendesk.com).
  4. Sign in to Zendesk if it asks you to.
  5. Read what Zendesk shows and click Allow. Guile never sees your password.

If something doesn't work

  • Check the subdomain: type only the first part, not the whole address. If your help center uses your own address (like help.acme.com), you'll find your subdomain on the Admin Center home page.
  • Tickets are missing: Guile sees only the tickets the person who connected can see. Ask a Zendesk admin to connect instead.
  • Zendesk opens the wrong account: sign out of Zendesk in this browser, then click Connect again.
