Hi! I would like to get more information about the sunshine data manager (EAP) but I am not authorized to see that site. Could you please publish it or tell me how I can access to it?
Thanks in advance!
It looks like that EAP is no longer active. I've copied the most recent update from our PM regarding this:
I want to CANCEL MY ACCOUNT.
NO LONGER USING THIS RESOURCE
The account owner can cancel the account at anytime under:
Zendesk Products icon (
Please note that the cancellation your entire Zendesk account is immediate, so be sure to export any data prior to cancelling!
For reference, please see this article: How do I cancel my account?
I hope this answer your questions. Thank you!
I signed up for the free trial on Zendesk, but was blocked. I then purchased the service and was still blocked. I contacted support and they activated my account. However, I signed up for the free trial for the sales module, but when they activated my account I have the help desk module. I contacted the person who helped me and they said they forwarded a message to my account manager, but it has been about three days now and I have not heard anything back yet. How do I find and contact my account manager?
Hi D Hooper I'm glad to see that you were able to get in contact with your account manager today, but let us know if you need any further assistance.
