PrestaShop Zendesk

Keep PrestaShop and Zendesk updated automatically.

Today you open your shop’s admin, look at which orders came in and carry them over. This connector fixes that, and we build it on request: what happens in PrestaShop lands in Zendesk by itself, in the shape Zendesk expects. Tell us what you need and we agree exactly what should travel.

The link

What travels across the link

Everything this connector moves between PrestaShop and Zendesk, and how often.

  1. Tickets

    to Zendesk automatically

    From this Zendesk opens a ticket for the right customer, so a question does not sit unanswered.

  2. Contacts

    to Zendesk automatically

    The sender is recognised or created as a contact in Zendesk, so the conversation sits with the right person.

Both sides

What each side expects

PrestaShop and Zendesk do not describe the world the same way. This is what has to line up.

Zendesk

A customer contact system wants a sender and a subject, so a message lands with the right customer.

In four steps

Setting it up

  2. 02

    We agree what should travel

  3. 03

    We build and test

    You see the connector run on a few test records before anything becomes final.

What you need

  • A store you administer, with API access from its admin.
  • An account you administer, and the inbox or channel involved.

Where it runs

Inside your Shopify admin, as an app. You sign in through Shopify, no separate account.

We build this connector on request. Tell us what you need and we reply within 24 hours.

Common questions

Can you connect PrestaShop to Zendesk?

Yes. Schakel connects through the official APIs of PrestaShop and Zendesk, so you install nothing on your own server and nothing travels outside those two parties.

Is a ticket created automatically in Zendesk?

Yes. What arrives from PrestaShop becomes a ticket in Zendesk for the right customer, so a question does not sit somewhere unanswered.

Does Zendesk recognise the sender as an existing customer?

The sender is looked up by email in Zendesk and attached to the existing contact; with no match, a new contact is created.

What happens on a refund or partial cancellation in PrestaShop?

It comes across, so Zendesk matches what was actually settled and you correct nothing by hand.

What does connecting PrestaShop and Zendesk cost?

You start free and only pay once the connector is really running. After that the same tiers apply as for any other connector, based on how much runs through it each month.

How often does PrestaShop sync with Zendesk?

That depends on your tier: hourly on the free tier up to real time on the unlimited tier. You can always start a sync yourself as well.

What if PrestaShop or Zendesk is briefly unavailable?

Nothing gets lost. Schakel retries later and the log shows exactly what happened, so at most you notice something coming through a little later.

How do I connect PrestaShop to Zendesk?

You give Schakel access to PrestaShop and Zendesk once and pick what should travel. We set it up together with you, so no technical knowledge is needed, and after that it runs by itself.

Missing something you need?

Tell us what PrestaShop and Zendesk should do for you. If it is not in here yet, that is usually because nobody has asked. We build on request and we reply within 24 hours.
