Connecting Zendesk with Nicereply

1. Choose the NPS metric in the “left menu” in your Nicereply account. Click on START NPS. If you do not see the START NPS button, click onthe  NEW SURVEY button in the top left corner of the screen

2. From distribution options, choose EMAIL TEMPLATE

3. You’re on the app directory page now, click on the Zendesk icon

4. Add your Zendesk hostname (e.g., ACMEcompany.zendesk.com). Hit "Connect and continue".

  1. Connect Nicereply with your Zendesk account using your Zendesk credentials.

Note: Ensure that you have admin access to the Zendesk account.

6. Import your agents in the next step. Add your users from Zendesk to Nicereply. New users will get an automated email with login instructions from us.

Adding email template to Zendesk

6. You're on the right track! To collect customer feedback, you need to place Net Promoter Score into your Zendesk email templates. Now, copy the NPS code.

 7. As a next step, we will update your Zendesk Trigger template. Go to Zendesk > Admin> Triggers and edit "Notify requester of comment update" trigger (or any other trigger your team is currently using):

8. Set the trigger conditions according to your needs. Now, you need to remove (DELETE) this part of the existing code: " Your request ({{ticket.id}}) has been updated. To add additional comments, reply to this email."

Note: Make sure you won't delete {{ticket.comments_formatted}} too. If you delete this {{placeholder}} by mistake, your emails will be sent without any text inside. 

And then paste the NPS code from the clipboard into the trigger email body after the "{{ticket.comments_formatted}}" code. Your trigger template should then look like this:

Don’t forget to save your changes on the trigger by clicking the Save button, and confirm setup completion in Nicereply.

Good job! 

Your email templates will now contain NPS code, and all collected ratings will be stored in Nicereply underthe  NPS tab.

And are pushed into your Zendesk ticket
