WhatsApp integration in Zoho Desk requires a WhatsApp Business API account. Once connected, incoming messages from customers create tickets automatically. The WhatsApp conversation is threaded within the ticket, with all messages visible to the assigned agent.
WhatsApp is the most widely used messaging app in India, with over 500 million users. For businesses serving Indian customers, offering support on WhatsApp reduces friction and meets customers on the channel they use daily for personal communication.
Zoho Desk workflows can send automated WhatsApp messages when a ticket is created, updated, or resolved. This keeps customers informed on their preferred channel without agents having to send manual updates.
The WhatsApp channel connects your WhatsApp Business number to Zoho Desk. Customer messages on WhatsApp become support tickets, and agents reply from within Zoho Desk while customers see responses in their WhatsApp chat.
Yes. WhatsApp is the dominant messaging platform in India. Connecting it to Zoho Desk allows businesses to support customers on their preferred channel, reducing response times and improving satisfaction.
