Zendesk integration questions

What can I automate with the Zendesk integration?

How many Zendesk triggers and actions are available?

The listed triggers and actions are designed for visual workflows. If the pre-built integration does not expose a capability you need, HTTP and webhook steps can cover APIs that your team is authorized to use.
