Automatically Classify Support Tickets in Zoho Desk with AI with Gemini
Transform your customer support workflow with intelligent ticket classification. This automation leverages AI to automatically categorize incoming support tickets in Zoho Desk, reducing manual work and ensuring faster ticket routing to the right teams.
How It Works
- Fetches all tickets from Zoho Desk with pagination support
- Filters unclassified tickets (where classification field is null)
- Retrieves complete ticket threads for full conversation context
- Uses OpenRouter AI (GPT-4, Claude, or other models) to classify tickets into predefined categories
- Updates tickets in Zoho Desk with accurate classifications automatically
Use Cases
- Customer Support Teams: Automatically route tickets to specialized departments (billing, technical, sales)
- Help Desks: Prioritize urgent issues and categorize feature requests
Prerequisites
- Active Zoho Desk account with API access
- OpenRouter API account (supports multiple AI models)
- Basic understanding of OAuth2 authentication
- Predefined ticket categories in your Zoho Desk setup
Setup Steps
Time: ~15 minutes
- Configure Zoho Desk OAuth2 - Follow our step-by-step GitHub guide for OAuth2 credential setup
- Set up OpenRouter API - Create an account and generate API keys at openrouter.ai
- Customize classifications - Define your ticket categories (e.g., Technical, Billing, Feature Request, Bug Report)
- Adapt the workflow - Modify for any field: status, priority, tags, assignment, or custom fields
- Review API documentation - Check Zoho Desk Search API docs for advanced filtering options
- Test thoroughly - Run manual triggers before automation
Note: This workflow demonstrates proper Zoho Desk API integration, including OAuth2 authentication and pagination handling—two common integration challenges.
