New Feature

initdesk API

The initdesk API is live today. Your systems can call initdesk at https://api.initdesk.com to create and manage tickets, customers, messages, and Help Center content from CRMs, internal tools, and custom portals.
Developer docs are at developers.initdesk.com. Authenticate with an organization token from Settings → API access (X-Initdesk-Token on every request). Use the numeric organization ID from Settings → General in paths like /organizations/{organization_id}/.
What you can do now:
  • Tickets: list, search, create, retrieve, reply, and read message threads
  • Customers and inboxes: manage requesters and route new tickets to the right inbox
  • Help Center: publish and sync articles and collections from your own pipeline
  • OpenAPI: explore and generate clients from api.initdesk.com/schema.yaml
This is different from BYOD (initdesk calls your endpoint for sidebar context) and webhooks (initdesk pushes events to your URL). Many teams combine all three. See API, webhooks, or BYOD for when to use each.
