The problem it solves

Tracking bugs across support tickets means someone has to comb through Zendesk, copy the relevant ones into a spreadsheet, and keep it updated as new reports come in. That manual process eats time and things get missed or duplicated.

Who it fits

A good fit for product managers, QA teams, or support leads who need one shared view of bug reports without manual data entry.

How it works

  1. You run the process on demand or on a schedule
  2. The system pulls all tickets from Zendesk
  3. It filters down to tickets tagged as a bug
  4. It attaches the reporter's name, email, and details to each one
  5. The tracker in Google Sheets is updated without creating duplicates
What you get

Bug tickets already waiting in your tracker

Keep a single, always-current Google Sheets view of every bug ticket coming out of Zendesk.

What you get

An always up to date Google Sheets bug tracker with ticket, status, and reporter details.

What you need

A Zendesk account and a Google Sheets account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.
