How do I change the custom status in Zendesk when a ticket changes status in Linear?

I am trying to automate ticket statuses between Linear and Zendesk.

I’ve already linked my accounts and everything is working great as far as creating tickets in Linear when tickets are created in Zendesk. I have custom statuses in both Linear and Zendesk. What I’d like to happen is when a ticket changes statuses in Linear, to change to that same custom status in Zendesk. 

 

Any help on this topic is greatly appreciated!

Hi @caitlinedison 

Good question.

Try these Zap steps:

  1. Trigger: Linear - Updated Issue
  2. Action: Formatter > Utilities > Lookup Table
    1. Use to translate the Statuses
  3. Action: Zendesk - Update Ticket

Hey @caitlinedison, looks like Troy laid out some solid steps above. Were you able to try them out successfully?

@chanelle @Troy Tessalone I was actually able to accomplish this within Zendesk alone by setting up a trigger that contained a specific text string. Thanks guys!
