Currently, there are four versions of Zendesk Chat in use. Which version you’re using depends on a number of factors, including:

  • When you signed up for Zendesk Chat
  • The website where you signed up
  • Whether you are using a Chat-only account, or a Chat account integrated with Zendesk Support

Based on these and other factors, you may be using one of the following versions of Zendesk Chat:

  • Zendesk Chat Phase 4, Chat-only or Chat + Support, available after October 24, 2018.
  • Zendesk Chat Phase 3, an integrated account, for Zendesk Support customers who later added a Chat account.
  • Legacy Zendesk Chat, a chat-only version, created on zopim.com.
  • Legacy Zendesk Chat + Support, an integrated Chat-Support account, created on zopim.com.

    Documentation related to Legacy Chat versions can be found in the Using Legacy Chat section of this Help Center,

Use the following table, and the lists below, to determine which version you are currently using.

How chats turn into tickets

For legacy Chat subscriptions only, there are no tickets

For legacy Chat accounts linked to Support, all Chats will be linked to a ticket on Support.

Automated/manual ticket creation can be configurable via the Chat Dashboard.

Tickets will be created at the start of each chat - agents can access the ticket on Support via the Chat window.
