Customization options for Zendesk + Jira integrations
- Syncing public Zendesk comments: By default, only internal notes will sync but you can also sync Zendesk public replies.
- Default type for new Jira issues: Unito lets you choose which issue type should be created in Jira each time a new ticket is synced from Zendesk.
- Prefix Zendesk ticket title with Jira issue number: Unito doesn't sync the ticket number from Zendesk to Jira by default but you can enable numbers syncing to task titles in your sync settings under the more options tab.
