Ticket information includes Ticket_ID, Type, Subject, Priority, Status, Created_At, and Updated_At. You can use the ticket information to analyze the tickets in your Zendesk account.
Configure a Data Synchronization task to read the ticket information from your Zendesk account and write to the flat file.
You perform the following Data Synchronization task:
- Source
