You can use this API to get system and custom ticket fields. For a list of system fields, see About ticket fields in Help Center.

You can also use the API to create custom ticket fields. See About custom field types in the Zendesk Help Center. New custom ticket fields become available in the Tickets API. See Setting custom field values in Tickets.

You can make ticket fields visible on the request form in Help Center for end users. To make a ticket field visible to end users, make it both visible and editable in Help Center. Example:

{  "visible_in_portal": true,  "editable_in_portal": true}

JSON format

List Ticket Fields

  • GET /api/v2/ticket_fields

Returns a list of all system and custom ticket fields in your account.

Cursor pagination returns a maximum of 100 records per page and fields are returned in the order specified by their id.

If the results are not paginated every field is returned in the response and fields are returned in the order specified by the position and id.

For accounts without access to multiple ticket forms, positions can be changed using the Update Ticket Field endpoint or the Ticket Forms page in Zendesk Support (Admin > Manage > Ticket Forms). The Ticket Forms page shows the fields for the account. The order of the fields is used in the different products to show the field values in the tickets.

For accounts with access to multiple ticket forms, positions can only be changed using the Update Ticket Field endpoint because products use the order defined on each form to show the field values instead of the general position of the ticket field in the account.

Consider caching this resource to use with the Tickets API.

Pagination

  • Cursor pagination (recommended)
  • No pagination

Parameters

Name Type In Required Description
locale string Query false Forces the title_in_portal property to return a dynamic content variant for the specified locale. Only accepts active locale ids. Example: locale="de".

Count Ticket Fields

  • GET /api/v2/ticket_fields/count
  • GET /api/v2/ticket_fields/count

Returns an approximate count of system and custom ticket fields in the account. If the count exceeds 100,000, the count will return a cached result. This cached result will update every 24 hours.

The count[refreshed_at] property is a timestamp that indicates when the count was last updated.

Note: When the count exceeds 100,000, count[refreshed_at] may occasionally be null. This indicates that the count is being updated in the background, and count[value] is limited to 100,000 until the update is complete.

Field limits

We recommend the following best practices for ticket fields limits. Creating more than these amounts can affect performance.

  • 400 ticket fields per account if your account doesn't have ticket forms
  • 400 ticket fields per ticket form if your account has ticket forms

Update Ticket Field

  • PUT /api/v2/ticket_fields/{ticket_field_id}

Updating drop-down field options

You can also use the update endpoint to add, update, or remove options in a drop-down custom field. Updating field options for multi-select fields works exactly the same as drop-down field options.

Important: Unless you want to remove some options, you must specify all existing options in any update request. Omitting an option removes it from the drop-down field, which removes its values from any tickets or macros.

Use the custom_field_options attribute to update the options. The attribute consists of an array of option objects, with each object consisting of a name and value property. The properties correspond to the "Title" and "Tag" text boxes in the admin interface. Example request body:

{"ticket_field": {    "custom_field_options": [      {"name": "Apple Pie", "value": "apple"},      {"name": "Pecan Pie", "value": "pecan"}    ]  }}

Example Request

curl https://{subdomain}.zendesk.com/api/v2/ticket_fields/{id}.json \  -d '{"ticket_field": {"custom_field_options": [{"name": "Apple Pie", "value": "apple"}, {"name": "Pecan Pie", "value": "pecan"}]}}' \  -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X PUT \  -v -u {email_address}:{password}

Example Response

Status: 200 OK
{  "ticket_field": {    "id":21938362,    "type":"tagger",    "title":"Pies",    ...    "custom_field_options": [      {        "id":21029772,        "name":"Apple Pie",        "raw_name":"Apple Pie",        "value":"apple",        "default":false      },      ...    ]  }}
