Zendesk Sell
Zendesk Sell Overview
Zendesk Sell is a sales CRM software tool that enhances productivity, processes, and pipeline visibility for sales teams.
Zendesk Sell Access Token is required to export Zendesk Sell tables.
Zendesk SELL tables are available under a separate tab.
What’s new
The way the Tableau Connector app connects to Zendesk Sell data has changed.
Before, users needed to connect using a special access token that gave the app permission to access data. Zendesk Sell now supports a newer and more secure method called OAuth. This method keeps data safer and removes the need to handle tokens directly.
To keep exporting Sell data with the Tableau Connector for Zendesk, reconnect your Zendesk Sell account using OAuth.
What it mean for users
A new Sell OAuth Credentials tab has been added for administrators. Only administrators can add or remove OAuth credentials.
The Tokens tab has been replaced with Connect Zendesk Sell Data, which is available to all users.
Removing the Zendesk Sell OAuth Client will:
Disconnect all users from Zendesk Sell.
Make reports using Zendesk Sell data unavailable.
Keep your data safe - no data will be lost, but you’ll need to reconnect to restore access.
