FAQ

Questions Zoho Desk owners ask.

  • 01

    What Zoho Desk plan do I need for this MCP server?

    This MCP server works with any paid Zoho Desk plan (Standard, Professional, Enterprise). The free plan has limited API access. Ensure your organization has API enabled in admin settings.

  • 02

    Can this MCP server automate ticket routing and escalation?

    Yes! AI agents can list tickets, filter by status/priority, update assignees, change departments, and add internal notes for escalation. Combined with workflow rules in Zoho Desk, you can build fully automated support pipelines.

  • 03

    Does this work with Zoho's multi-tenant organizations?

    Absolutely. The MCP server requires an orgId parameter, so you can connect to any Zoho Desk organization you have access to. For multiple orgs, deploy separate MCP instances with different credentials.
