Description

This workflow automates Zendesk ticket escalation by creating ClickUp tasks for urgent cases and notifying the support team in Telegram. It ensures that high-priority tickets are instantly visible to the right team members, avoiding delays in resolution.

What This Template Does (Step-by-Step)

🟒 Trigger (Manual Test or Later Zendesk Trigger)

  • Currently uses a manual trigger (Execute Workflow) for testing.
  • In production, this would start whenever a pending Zendesk ticket appears.

🎫 Fetch Zendesk Tickets

  • Pulls all pending tickets assigned to a group.
  • Sorts them by status and date.

🧹 Select Latest Ticket

  • Sorts by created_at and keeps only the newest ticket.
  • Outputs: id, subject, description, requester_id, created_at.

πŸ“§ Fetch Requester Email

  • Retrieves requester details (name, email, timezone) from Zendesk Users API.

πŸ”€ Merge Ticket & Requester Data

  • Combines both streams: ticket info + requester info.
  • Ensures the ClickUp task payload has everything it needs.

πŸ“ Prepare ClickUp Task Payload

  • Builds a structured task:
  • Task Name: [Escalation] {Subject} (Ticket #ID)
  • Description: Ticket + requester details + escalation message
  • Priority: 3 (default, can be adjusted)
  • Tags: zendesk, escalation

πŸ“‚ Create ClickUp Task

  • Pushes the structured task into ClickUp under the escalation list.
  • Assigns it to a predefined team member.

πŸ“¨ Format Telegram Alert Message

  • Generates a concise but urgent message:
  • Ticket subject + ID
  • Requester name + email
  • Direct ClickUp link
  • Adds urgency formatting (🚨 Immediate Attention Required).

πŸ“’ Send Telegram Escalation Alert

  • Posts the alert into the chosen Telegram chat/team.
  • Ensures managers/stakeholders know instantly.

Prerequisites

  • Zendesk account + API credentials
  • ClickUp account + API credentials
  • Telegram bot token & chat ID
  • n8n instance (cloud or self-hosted)

Zendesk Ticket Escalation to ClickUp with Telegram Alerts

This n8n workflow automates the process of escalating Zendesk tickets to ClickUp tasks and sending real-time notifications via Telegram. It streamlines the communication and task management for critical Zendesk tickets, ensuring that urgent issues are promptly addressed by the relevant teams in ClickUp and that stakeholders are kept informed.

What it does

This workflow performs the following key actions:

  1. Manual Trigger: Initiates the workflow upon a manual execution. This allows for on-demand escalation of tickets.
  2. Code Execution: Executes custom JavaScript code. This node is typically used for data manipulation, formatting, or conditional logic based on the input data before further processing.
  3. Zendesk Interaction: Interacts with Zendesk, likely to retrieve ticket details or update ticket status.
  4. ClickUp Task Creation: Creates or updates tasks within ClickUp, using information from the Zendesk ticket. This ensures that escalated issues are tracked and managed in the project management tool.
  5. Telegram Notification: Sends an alert or summary of the escalated ticket and created ClickUp task to a designated Telegram chat, ensuring immediate awareness for relevant team members.
  6. Merge Data: Combines data from different branches of the workflow. This could be used to consolidate information before sending a final notification or updating a system.
  7. Sticky Note: Provides a place for notes or comments within the workflow for documentation purposes.

Prerequisites/Requirements

To use this workflow, you will need:

  • n8n Instance: A running instance of n8n.
  • Zendesk Account: With appropriate API access and credentials configured in n8n.
  • ClickUp Account: With API access and credentials configured in n8n.
  • Telegram Account & Bot: A Telegram bot token and the chat ID where alerts should be sent, configured as credentials in n8n.

Setup/Usage

  1. Import the workflow: Download the provided JSON and import it into your n8n instance.
  2. Configure Credentials:
    • Set up your Zendesk API credentials.
    • Set up your ClickUp API credentials.
    • Set up your Telegram Bot API credentials (Bot Token and Chat ID).
  3. Customize the Code Node: Adjust the JavaScript code in the "Code" node (ID: 834) to match your specific data transformation or filtering requirements for Zendesk ticket data.
  4. Configure Zendesk Node: Ensure the "Zendesk" node (ID: 123) is configured to fetch or update the correct ticket information.
  5. Configure ClickUp Node: Adjust the "ClickUp" node (ID: 129) to create tasks in the desired workspace, space, folder, and list, mapping the Zendesk ticket details to ClickUp task fields.
  6. Configure Telegram Node: Verify the "Telegram" node (ID: 49) is set to send messages to the correct chat ID with the desired message format.
  7. Activate the Workflow: Once configured, activate the workflow. You can then manually trigger it to test its functionality.

Two-way property repair management system with Google Sheets & Drive

This workflow automates the repair request process between tenants and building managers, keeping all updates organized in a single spreadsheet. It is composed of two coordinated workflows, as two separate triggers are required β€” one for new repair submissions and another for repair updates. A Unique Unit ID that corresponds to individual units is attributed to each request, and timestamps are used to coordinate repair updates with specific requests. General use cases include: Property managers who manage multiple buildings or units. Building owners looking to centralize tenant repair communication. Automation builders who want to learn multi-trigger workflow design in n8n. --- βš™οΈ How It Works Workflow 1 – New Repair Requests Behind the Scenes: A tenant fills out a Google Form (β€œRepair Request Form”), which automatically adds a new row to a linked Google Sheet. Steps: Trigger: Google Sheets rowAdded – runs when a new form entry appears. Extract & Format: Collects all relevant form data (address, unit, urgency, contacts). Generate Unit ID: Creates a standardized identifier (e.g., BUILDING-UNIT) for tracking. Email Notification: Sends the building manager a formatted email summarizing the repair details and including a link to a Repair Update Form (which activates Workflow 2). --- Workflow 2 – Repair Updates Behind the Scenes:\ Triggered when the building manager submits a follow-up form (β€œRepair Update Form”). Steps: Lookup by UUID: Uses the Unit ID from Workflow 1 to find the existing row in the Google Sheet. Conditional Logic: If photos are uploaded: Saves each image to a Google Drive folder, renames files consistently, and adds URLs to the sheet. If no photos: Skips the upload step and processes textual updates only. Merge & Update: Combines new data with existing repair info in the same spreadsheet row β€” enabling a full repair history in one place. --- 🧩 Requirements Google Account (for Forms, Sheets, and Drive) Gmail/email node connected for sending notifications n8n credentials configured for Google API access --- ⚑ Setup Instructions (see more detail in workflow) Import both workflows into n8n, then copy one into a second workflow. Change manual trigger in workflow 2 to a n8n Form node. Connect Google credentials to all nodes. Update spreadsheet and folder IDs in the corresponding nodes. Customize email text, sender name, and form links for your organization. Test each workflow with a sample repair request and a repair update submission. --- πŸ› οΈ Customization Ideas Add Slack or Telegram notifications for urgent repairs. Auto-create folders per building or unit for photo uploads. Generate monthly repair summaries using Google Sheets triggers. Add an AI node to create summaries/extract relevant repair data from repair request that include long submissions.
