Ask Zendesk what customers keep telling you.

Scope

What Lumen sees. What it can change.

Read is on by default. Every write is a separate toggle, capped per user, and logged.

Read

What Lumen reads

Lumen calls the Zendesk REST API with the OAuth token you grant at install, scoped to your subdomain. Read scope only by default.

  • Tickets

    Search by status, group, assignee, tag, customer; comments, audits, SLA breach state

  • Users & organisations

    Lookup, ticket history, plan tier, custom fields

  • Macros & triggers

    Definitions, last-used counts, recent applications

  • Groups & schedules

    Group membership, business-hour schedules, SLA policies

  • Reports

    First-reply / full-resolution time, satisfaction score, ticket volume by view

Write · opt-in

What Lumen can write

Lumen does not write to Zendesk by default. Tagging, macro application, and replies can be admin-enabled per subdomain.

    Every call is logged with user, operation, ticket / user ID, and date range. Exportable as CSV.
