Welcome to the Zendesk Community, your place to connect with your peers to learn, share, and collaborate. We’re excited that you’re here - we all benefit from a healthy, vibrant community, and we value your contributions.

“Community” refers to any place on the Zendesk Help Center where you can post. This includes all of the product communities, feedback, and the comments sections in the knowledge bases.

Please read through these guidelines before posting or commenting; all users are expected to be familiar with them and will be held accountable for following them. These guidelines are in addition to theZendesk User Content and Conduct Policy. Both apply to activity in any Zendesk Help Center and will be enforced.
