Last updated: March 11, 2026

This guide covers steps to set up Zendesk Sell and Fireflies integration.

What is Zendesk Sell-Fireflies integration?

  • The Fireflies-Zendesk Sell integration lets you log meeting notes under the appropriate leads, contacts, or deals within Zendesk Sell.

Note: Meetings with internal participants and those recorded via the Fireflies Chrome extension or Add to Live are logged under fred@fireflies.ai.

Set up Zendesk Sell and Fireflies integration

  • On the Integrations page, find Zendesk Sell and click on it.

  • Click Connect.

  • You'll be redirected to Zendesk Sell. Click Authorize to grant Fireflies permission to access your Zendesk Sell account.

  • This will redirect you back to the Fireflies app. Notice the green check mark on the Zendesk Sell icon and the Active status.

  • Fireflies will now automatically log notes under the appropriate contact in Zendesk Sell.

Configure Zendesk Sell-Fireflies settings

OFF

If enabled, Fireflies logs meeting data only if the contact/lead already exists in the CRM.

2. Test Zendesk Sell integration

With sample data

  • Click Insert Sample Data.

  • You will see the sample data named fred within Zendesk Sell Contacts.

3. Resync past meetings

  • Click on Resync past meetings to resync old meetings.

Manually send meeting notes to Zendesk Sell

Prefer sending only certain meetings to Zendesk Sell? Fireflies also allows you to manually send meeting notes directly from the Notepad.

This is helpful when you want to review or edit notes first and then send only the relevant conversations to Zendesk Sell contacts—without setting up automation rules or configuration.
