Google Docs + Zendesk

Create new Zendesk tickets from new Google Docs documents in a folder

This workflow initiates when you add a new document to a specific folder in Google Docs, then instantly creates a ticket in Zendesk. This automation is a time-saving solution, ensuring that help desk tickets linked to new documents are promptly generated in Zendesk. Good for maintaining efficient workflow operations and minimizing the chance of missed communications.
