Support Bot is a bot installed in the Discord server which is connected to Zendesk Support. It offers streamlined support in the Discord server. You can quickly get help using simple slash commands in Discord and through intuitive conversation with the bot.
Zendesk tickets can be raised and interacted with through a direct message (DM), so your support requests are kept private. You can also add more information to a ticket before it is sent to customer support. The bot also provides recommended content from the knowledge base to help answer your questions.
