Save and Activate the Scenario

After configuring ActiveCampaign, Zendesk, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.

Test the Scenario

Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the ActiveCampaign and Zendesk integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between ActiveCampaign and Zendesk (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.

Most powerful ways to connect ActiveCampaign and Zendesk

ActiveCampaign + Zendesk + Slack: When a new contact is added to ActiveCampaign, a ticket is created in Zendesk to address any potential support needs. The support team is then notified in a dedicated Slack channel to monitor the new ticket.

Zendesk + ActiveCampaign + Google Sheets: When a Zendesk ticket is updated, the associated customer data is added or updated in ActiveCampaign. The contact details and Zendesk ticket info are then logged in a Google Sheet for tracking and reporting.
