Coming soon to the Zendesk Marketplace.
Overview
Support teams handle billing issues, VIP conversations, compliance questions, trust and safety tickets, and escalations every day. Access Monitor gives admins a simple way to see when those tickets are viewed and which rule triggered the log.
Start with sensitive ticket tags, then add rules for selected agent roles, non-assignee views, or broader ticket view monitoring.
Write a short internal note, add Zendesk tags, and append a structured entry to the Access Monitor View Log ticket field.
Use duplicate suppression and safe default rules so repeated views do not flood the ticket timeline.
Screenshots
Access Monitor works in the Zendesk admin and ticket experience, so teams can add view visibility without sending agents to another tool.

Workflow
Access Monitor is for tickets where extra visibility matters, but a full access logging program would be too heavy for the workflow.
Log views when tickets include a configured sensitive tag for billing, VIP, trust, safety, or compliance workflows.
Monitor sensitive tickets when they are viewed by selected agent roles, such as admins or agents.
Log views when a monitored ticket is opened by someone other than the assigned agent.

Privacy
Access Monitor logs matching ticket views when the Zendesk ticket sidebar app loads and a configured rule matches.
It is not a complete record of all Zendesk access and is not a replacement for Zendesk native access logs, advanced security features, or compliance-grade audit logging.
Access Monitor does not sell customer data, use customer data for advertising, or share customer data with unauthorized third parties.
