tab in the client activities section.

The following fields must be filled out in the ticket creation form:

Zendesk)

A ticket is created when clicking on a «Create ticket» button. The information about the
created ticket is displayed in the client activity list.

Attention! A ticket can only be created for a lead, contact or company card with at least
one specified email address. The email address is required to search for tickets and to
display tickets bound to a particular CRM card.
