Zendesk sends satisfaction surveys 24 hours after a ticket status is solved through a default automation: Request customer satisfaction rating (system automation). To change this behavior and send surveys immediately, follow the two-step process below to send surveys when you solve tickets.

Step 1: Deactivate the default automation

  1. Go to Admin Center, and open the Automations page
  2. Deactivate the automation titled Request customer satisfaction rating (system automation) by clicking the menu button () > Deactivate

Step 2: Create a trigger to send the satisfaction survey

  1. Create a new trigger
  2. Add the conditions below under Meet ALL of the following conditions:
    • Object > Ticket > Status category | Changed to | Solved
    • Object > Ticket > Satisfaction | Is | Unoffered
  3. Add the actions below under Actions:
    • Object > Ticket > Satisfaction | offered to requester
    • Notify by > User email | Ticket > (requester)
  4. Copy the subject and the body content from Request customer satisfaction rating (system automation)
