Overview

This Adapter allows you to connect to Zendesk to fetch account activity logs.

Deployment Configurations

All adapters support the same client_options, which you should always specify if using the binary adapter or creating a webhook adapter. If you use any of the Adapter helpers in the web app, you will not need to specify these values.

  • client_options.identity.oid: the LimaCharlie Organization ID (OID) this adapter is used with.
  • client_options.identity.installation_key: the LimaCharlie Installation Key this adapter should use to identify with LimaCharlie.
  • client_options.platform: the type of data ingested through this adapter, like text, json, gcp, carbon_black, etc.
  • client_options.sensor_seed_key: an arbitrary name for this adapter which Sensor IDs (SID) are generated from, see below.

Adapter-specific Options

Adapter Type: zendesk

  • api_token: your Zendesk API token

  • zendesk_domain: your Zendesk domain, like initech.zendesk.com

  • zendesk_email: your Zendesk email address that created the API token
