Question

How can I report on user and organization data in Explore? Can I report on users or organizations that do not have tickets associated with them?

Answer

Most of the user and organization data in Explore is contained in the支持:门票dataset. The dataset contains many useful metrics such as:

  • Users
  • Suspended users
  • Deleted users
  • Organizations

For a comprehensive list of available metrics, see the article:Metrics and attributes for Zendesk Explore.

Tip:search the metrics and attributes article for "organization" or "user" by pressing Command+F or Control+F.

Not every metric requires that a ticket be associated with it but some are fundamentally tied to ticket data. For example, in order to find out when a user was created, you have to use theTicketattribute,Time - requester created.

For more information and useful recipes, check out the following articles:

An alternative to reporting on user and organization information in Explore would be to export that information directly from Support and report on it in an external program. Learn how to export Support data in this article:Where is the data export option?

      Hello,

      While reporting on deleted users metric, is there a way you can include the day the same accounts were deleted as an attribute.

      Your support on this will be highly appreciated

      Hi Allan,

      Natively, Zendesk doesn't have a metric that reports on the timestamp when a user is deleted. You may want to check the articleMetrics and attributes for Zendesk Supportfor a comprehensive list of metrics and attributes.


      Thanks for understanding.

      Hi Mau,

      Many thanks for your response. I was able to hack it by using;

      Time - Requester last updated The last time that the ticket requester user profile was updated.

      as the last requester user-profile update was 'Delete'.

      I am looking for a way to see the name of the User and selections they have on their profile. I only see Name options for "Assignee, requester, and submitter" which does not apply to user profile. Is there an option similar to "User name"?

      Hello Sydney,

      We can recommend using API GET requests for checking the information about the "user name".
      GET /api/v2/users/{user_id}where{user_id}is the id of the user.
      -https://developer.zendesk.com/api-reference/ticketing/users/users/#show-user


      For example, using this API requests you can extract "alias" information and so on.
      Have attached an example of how you can check it via the browser console:

      Hopefully, it helps
