Use it to fetch or update Zendesk support data through Apideck.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

zendesk scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 78 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Zendesk (via Apideck Proxy)

Access Zendesk through Apideck's Proxy API with managed Vault auth. Apideck stores credentials, refreshes tokens, and forwards your HTTP calls to Zendesk's native API — you keep using Zendesk's own request and response shapes, while Apideck eliminates per-tenant credential plumbing and gives you a single auth integration shared across every Apideck connector.

Auth-only / proxy-only connector. Apideck does not map Zendesk to a unified-API resource model — your code talks Zendesk's own API directly through the Proxy. You still get Vault credential storage, token refresh, retries, and a consistent request envelope.

Quick facts

When to use this skill

Activate this skill when the user wants to call Zendesk via Apideck — for example, "call the Zendesk API" or "fetch data from Zendesk". This skill teaches the agent:

  1. That Zendesk routes through Apideck's Proxy API, not a unified resource API
  2. The correct serviceId to pass on every call (zendesk)
  3. How to keep using Zendesk's native request/response shapes while Apideck handles Vault auth

If you need a unified-API surface (one method shape across many vendors), see the connector skills in this catalog whose serviceId is mapped to a unified API.

Auth

  • Type: OAuth 2.0
  • Managed by: Apideck Vault — Apideck handles the full OAuth dance (authorization code flow, token exchange, refresh). Never ask the user for API keys or tokens directly.
  • User setup: Users authorize via the Vault modal. Connection state progresses available → added → authorized → callable.
  • Token refresh: automatic. Expired tokens are refreshed transparently on the next API call.
