REST API: Search

Your zendesk contains a unified search interface for users, groups, organizations, tickets and topics, and offers a wide range of search parameters.

You can use all available search parameters in your REST search, e.g.:

  • type:user company.com (search for users from a specific domain)
  • printer fire assignee:alexander
  • assignee:none
  • requester:me@zendesk.com
  • submitter:“Joe Doe”
  • group:support
  • group:none
  • status:solved
  • priority>normal
  • tags:printer
  • tags:“printer fire”

Note that your help desk is indexed every 15 minutes. I.e. you might see a delay in the contents of the index.
