I am interested in integrating Zendesk Ticket related information (not the same as common fields).

Check image of Zendesk ticket. The red field called "Incident" changes its count every time there is a new incident associated to this specific ticket

      Yes, you can.

      Whenever something is missing in the Exalate API - you can always get to the REST exposed ticket information using the httpClient.

      1) First step is to understand what the REST api is returning


      • Create a scripted connection
      • Add to the outgoing sync following code 
      ZENDESK - Outgoing
      def related = httpClient.get("/api/v2/tickets/${ticket.id}/related")
      debug.error("Result = ${related}")
      • Sync a Zendesk ticket



      The debug.error will raise an error (which is intended) showing

      Result = [ticket_related:[from_archive:false, url:https://d3v-francis.zendesk.com/api/v2/tickets/121/related.json, jira_issue_ids:[], incidents:3.0, followup_source_ids:[]]]


      There you can see that the information returned by the call is a map with one entry 'ticket_related'
      ticket_related is a map with a couple of fields including 'incidents'

      2) With this knowledge in your backpack, you can now extract the incident information and add it to the replica

      def related = httpClient.get("/api/v2/tickets/${ticket.id}/related")
      replica.incidentCount = related?.ticket_related?.incidents


      Make sure you use the safety operator in case the get returns nothing
