Zendesk on a TV screen
On the screen

What the screen shows

Open, pending, unassigned, waiting too long

The live queue per group. Waiting too long turns amber after the number of hours you set.

New and solved, today and this week

With the trend against the previous period and a 7-day line under the Open count.

First reply and time to solve

Averages over the last 7 days from the ticket metrics Zendesk records, plus first-contact resolution.

Satisfaction

Good ratings as a percentage over 30 days, the number of ratings and negative ratings today.

Suspended tickets

Spam and suspended tickets that came in today, so nobody has to open the suspended view to know.

Per group, channel and tag

Where the tickets come from: split the open tickets by group, by email, chat, phone or web form, and by tag.

Setup

How it connects

01
Create an API token in Zendesk

In Admin Center open Apps and integrations, Zendesk API. Enable token access and add an API token. Copy it.

02
Enter subdomain, agent email and token

Your subdomain (company.zendesk.com), the email address of the agent the token belongs to and the token. A light agent with view rights is enough.

03
Pick groups, tiles and design

Test the connection, choose which groups count on this board, pick your tiles and push it to a screen.

Privacy

What reaches the screen

The screen shows counts and averages, never a requester, a subject or a comment. The token is only ever used to read. Credentials are sealed on our servers, only ever used to read, and never shown again after you save them. Revoke them on the platform side at any time and the board simply stops.

Read only: TVpilot never changes anything in the source

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Which Zendesk plan do I need?

Any plan with API access. The board reads tickets, groups, users, satisfaction ratings and suspended tickets through the standard Support API.

Can I show two groups side by side?

Yes. Pick several groups and choose Side by side for up to three columns, One at a time to switch between them every 10 to 60 seconds, or Combined for one set of numbers.

Does it show agent names?

Only when you add the per-agent tiles on purpose. A board in a shared office shows totals unless the team decides otherwise.

Whose token should I use?

A dedicated agent for the board is cleanest: a light agent with view rights. The board reads with that user's rights and stops when you delete the token in Zendesk API.

How current are the numbers?

The board refreshes every 3 minutes and keeps the last known numbers on the screen through a connection hiccup.

Can I show Zendesk next to Shopify?

Yes. Both are slides in the same playlist, or side by side on two screens. Many teams pair the support board with the sales board.
