Configure the Zendesk Sell Action Block
To configure in Ada:

- Next to Zendesk Sell, click Configure. You will see a dialogue window pop up, where you will be prompted to enter an API key.
- You can find the Zendesk Sell API Key in your Zendesk Instance, by navigating to: Settings > OAuth > Access Tokens. Create a new token and name it appropriately (ie. Ada Bot Integration Token). If you have an existing token, click Details to access it.
- Enter your Zendesk Sell Access token in the API key field, and click Save.
Be sure to refresh your dashboard once you click Save. This will ensure the Zendesk Sell block is ready to be used.
