Zendesk connector stopped loading excursion tickets. Callie and Rory traced the issue to a custom field added in Zendesk that broke the field mapping, fixed it within hours, and the customer confirmed data was restored.

Problem: high-priority data availability issue; Zendesk connector stalled after a custom field was added to the source system, stopping new ticket ingestion.

Handling: support team diagnosed stalled sync, identified the root cause (custom field breaking the mapping), and engineering patched the connector quickly. Customer confirmed visibility restored and praised the fast resolution.

Watch: customer has client-facing dependency on data freshness; connector failures have immediate business impact.

    The Zendesk connector stopped loading excursion tickets. We've had several new tickets since this morning but nothing's coming through to the brain. This is urgent. The clients need to see their data.

    Hi Kerensa, I can see the sync has stalled. First thing: can you check that the API token in Zendesk is still valid? If that's fine, tell me when the last ticket came through and I'll check our logs.

    Token's fine. Last update was Tuesday at 06:30. Three new excursions since then and none in the brain. Not good.

    Zendesk added a custom field yesterday and it's broken the field mapping. Rory's patching now. Should be live within the hour.

    Found it: custom field added yesterday broke the mapping. Rory's patching now and we should have the load working within an hour. I'll update you once it's live.
