Zendesk - Version 5.1.0

:loudspeaker: Released for ZENDESK on Apr 5, 2021

From now on, you can create Basic connections to sync Zendesk tickets. With Basic connections, you can sync the most basic ticket data. These connections are easy to set up and can be upgraded to Visual and Script connections to add more features. We also made a bunch of other improvements, bug fixes, and UI updates.
