Start by adding Zendesk as a data source in your Kondado account and authenticate with your credentials.

Combine this with Satisfaction Surveys to correlate service speed with customer happiness scores. The data also supports tracking agent performance through Groups and Organizations segmentation, helping you identify top performers and areas needing improvement.
How often does Zendesk data update in my Pentaho reports?
You control the update frequency based on your business needs, choosing intervals from every 5 minutes to daily or weekly schedules. This configurable schedule ensures your dashboards display fresh data without overwhelming your system with unnecessary updates. Set it to match your reporting cycles, whether you need near-real-time monitoring for high-volume support teams or daily summaries for executive reviews.

Yes, once you build reports in Pentaho, you can distribute them to stakeholders across your organization using Pentaho's built-in sharing features. Your team members will see the same current data replicated from Zendesk according to your configured schedule. This ensures everyone from support managers to executives bases decisions on consistent, up-to-date customer service metrics.
