Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between a Lead and a Contact in Zendesk Sell?
Leads represent potential interest but are not yet qualified. Contacts are qualified individuals or organizations that can be associated with sales deals.
Can I associate a deal with a contact via the agent?
Yes, when using the create_sales_deal tool, you must provide a contact_id to link the new opportunity to an existing person or company.
How do I update the status of an existing deal?
Use the update_existing_deal tool with the unique deal ID and a JSON object containing the new status (e.g., 'Won', 'Lost', or a specific pipeline stage).
How do I add an MCP server to Claude Code?
Run claude mcp add <name> --transport http "<url>" in your terminal. Claude Code registers the server and discovers all tools immediately.
Can Claude Code run MCP tools in headless mode?
Yes. Claude Code supports non-interactive execution, making it ideal for scripts, cron jobs, and CI/CD pipelines that need MCP tool access.
How do I list all connected MCP servers?
Run claude mcp in your terminal to see all registered servers and their status, or type /mcp inside an active Claude Code session.
