Deeplinking to a specific chatbot flow for CTA in in-app banners
Posted Oct 26, 2022
I'm going to suggest a feature that's a little difficult to explain, but it's simple in working. Intercom has this as a default feature so was surprised to discover that it's not available in Zendesk.
Let me explain with a scenario:
Imagine you're opening a banking app that you've just applied for account with. It's an online only bank like Monzo so all checks are done via the app. It seems that the bank is missing some information before they can issue you a card. The next time you open that app, you get a banner saying "Hi, we're missing some docs from you, PLEASE CLICK HERE to upload them and we'll get back in touch with you asap."
You click CLICK HERE.
The app takes you to Support chat option and you're presented with a specific chatbot flow asking you some questions instead of a blank chat.
You answer questions, upload files, this gets as a ticket to support.
Zendesk Support has confirmed that this is not available at the moment. Surely it would be great to have such a solution directly in Zendesk so that the User Experience is seamless and the risk of asking unnecessary questions by Support is minimised (this gets sorted by the answer bot flow who asks all the questions)
Would it be possible to introduce such feature? So one can generate a link in Zendesk leading to a certain flow, that we would hyperlink in "PLEASE CLICK HERE" CTA (or anywhere else if needed)

Hi Kat!
Zendesk is bringing the ability to Proactively send messages to an end-user in the Messaging experience (you would need Messaging enabled), but the first iteration may not go as far as achieving the use case that you're describing above where the business would need to check if a certain outside condition (like the submission of a document) has been met. Thank you for this insight! We'll discuss this, and it'll help shape the direction of this work moving forward.

Hey Mick O'Donnell, what is the ETA for the proactive messages via Messaging? And would it support Sunshine conversations?
