How Zendesk connects to Rig
Rig Ingest syncs your Zendesk tickets, audits, users and satisfaction ratings into your warehouse on a schedule. Rig models ticket events and SLA policies so volume, response time and CSAT questions resolve correctly.
Track ticket volume and trends over time
Ticket volume is the count of tickets created in a period, broken down by channel, group, tag or organization. Rig reads Zendesk tickets and their timestamps, so you can see how volume moves week over week, spot spikes, and tie them back to releases or incidents.
- How many tickets were created last week by channel?
- Which tags are growing fastest month over month?
- Show ticket volume by group over the last 90 days
Measure first response and resolution time against SLA
First response time is the gap between ticket creation and the first agent reply, and resolution time runs to when the ticket is solved. Rig reads Zendesk ticket events and SLA policies, so you can see median times, SLA breach rate, and which queues are slipping.
- What was median first response time last month?
- Which groups breach their SLA most often?
- Show resolution time by priority this quarter
Report on CSAT and satisfaction trends
CSAT is the share of rated tickets marked good out of all ratings received. Rig joins Zendesk satisfaction ratings to tickets and agents, so you can track CSAT over time, see which reasons drive bad ratings, and compare scores by team.
- What is our CSAT score this month versus last?
- Which agents have the lowest satisfaction ratings?
- What tags appear most on bad-rated tickets?
Analyse agent performance and workload
Rig joins Zendesk tickets, comments and groups to each agent, so you can see tickets solved, replies sent, and open backlog per person. That shows where workload is uneven and who needs support, without exporting agent reports.
- How many tickets did each agent solve last week?
- Who has the largest open ticket backlog?
- Show average replies per ticket by agent
