Zendesk Sell

Connect to your users' Zendesk Sell accounts
Setup Guide
You can find your Zendesk Sell app credentials by visiting your Zendesk Developer App Console.
You'll need the following information to set up your Zendesk Sell app with Paragon:
Client ID
Client Secret
Add the Redirect URL to your Zendesk Sell app
Paragon provides a redirect URL to send information to your Zendesk Sell app. To add the redirect URL to your Zendesk Sell app:
1. Copy the link under "Redirect URL" in your integration settings in Paragon. The Redirect URL is:
https://passport.useparagon.com/oauth
2. In your Zendesk dashboard, click the gear icon on the left.
3. Under Channels > API > OAuth Clients, click the "Add OAuth Client" button.
4. Fill out your Client Name and Description.
5. Under "Redirect URLs", paste the Redirect URL from Paragon.
6. Press the Save button.
7. Scroll down to the bottom of the page to copy your Secret. We'll use this in the next step.
Add your Zendesk Sell app to Paragon
1. Select Zendesk Sell from the Integrations Catalog.
2. Under Integrations > Connected Integrations > {YOUR_APP} > Settings, fill out your credentials from the end of Step 1 in their respective sections:
Client ID: Found at the end of Step 1.
Client Secret: Found at the end of Step 1.
Press the blue "Connect" button to save your credentials.
Note: Leaving the Client ID and Client Secret blank will use Paragon development keys.
Connecting to Zendesk Sell
Once your users have connected their Zendesk account, you can use the Paragon SDK to access the Zendesk API on behalf of connected users.
