Data to export from Zendesk

  • custom objects
  • call and voice logs
  • synced email and calendar links
  • workflow rules
  • saved reports
  • installed marketplace apps
  • AI assistant configuration
  • records for the catalog use cases: accounts

How the catalogs differ

  • Zendesk is flagged for custom objects. PolyAI is not, so the map is a redesign rather than a field-for-field copy.
  • PolyAI is not flagged for: custom objects, synced email and calendar links, installed marketplace apps.
  • Zendesk is flagged with an open API, which is the export path to test.
  • PolyAI is flagged with an open API for the load.
  • Zendesk is cataloged as a fit for: Multi-channel support orgs that need SLAs, QA, and a ticket system of record.
  • PolyAI is cataloged as a fit for: Phone-first CX.

Phases

  1. Export

    Take Zendesk as the source of truth for this pair. Export custom objects; call and voice logs; synced email and calendar links; workflow rules; saved reports; installed marketplace apps; AI assistant configuration; records for the catalog use cases: accounts. The default enterprise helpdesk — tickets, SLAs, and a marketplace around them.

  2. Map

    Load into PolyAI only after the field map is written down. Voice AI agents for enterprise customer service phone lines. Zendesk is flagged for custom objects. PolyAI is not, so the map is a redesign rather than a field-for-field copy.

  3. Prove a sample

    PolyAI scores 4/10 on speed to live and 4/10 on migration friendliness. Run one sample load and one report the team already uses in Zendesk before a full cutover.

  4. Cut over

    Zendesk scores 7/10 on migration friendliness. Keep Zendesk readable until the team is working in PolyAI. Zendesk is the procurement-safe customer service platform: ticketing, messaging, QA, and a large app ecosystem. AI Copilot and the Sunshine layer sit on top of a ticket model most support orgs already know. It is powerful, configurable, and easy to outgrow in cost once every add-on is on.

Afterstack is not the vendor. This agent does not move data, does not authenticate to Zendesk or PolyAI, and does not sell a rank. Methodology.
