Zendesk Integrations Worth Having
The Zendesk marketplace has hundreds of apps. Most teams need about six Zendesk integrations, and installing more than that makes the agent interface worse.

Frequently asked questions
How do Zendesk integrations work?
Three ways: a marketplace app you install into the agent interface, a native connector built by the other vendor, or something you build against the Zendesk API. Marketplace apps are quickest; API work is the only route when data has to move both ways on your terms.
Does merging in Zendesk lose the customer replies?
No. Ticket Merger uses the native Zendesk merge, so the conversation, attachments and audit history move onto the surviving ticket. The duplicate is closed with a note pointing at the original.
Can I review merges before they happen?
No. Once a pair matches your rules, Ticket Merger merges it. What you control is what qualifies: requester, the subject keywords you list, the time window, and the groups, forms or tags you exclude. To see how it behaves before it touches everything, point it at one group first and widen from there. Every merge leaves a note on the thread saying what was merged and why.
What stops it merging two tickets that are not the same?
Rules you set. Match on requester, subject keywords, status, priority, category or group, and a time window, and exclude anything you want left alone, like tickets from a specific form, group or tag. Anything that does not clear those rules is left alone.
How long does setup take?
About five minutes to connect, and the first scan of your open queue runs immediately after. Onboarding help is included on every plan.
The integration that removes work
Ticket Merger connects through the Zendesk API, adds no sidebar clutter, and takes duplicate tickets out of the queue entirely.
