RH 2020 - Could not Connect to the Site when trying to publish to ZenDesk

[tracym11665964]

I'm trying to publish some topics in RoboHelp 2020 to our Zendesk KB.

I've watched the video explaining how to do this.

I've set up my output and Zendesk profile.

I've enabled API in ZenDesk.

I've checked my UserID and password about 10 times

Everytime I try and save the publish profile, I get a "Could not conntect to the site. Check your site credentials message". I know the credentials are correct.  I'm an admin user in ZenDesk.

When I look at the Output preset, I have the drop-downs for "Visible To" and "Managed By" but these obviously aren't populated because I can't connect.

Any ideas what I might be missing. I've followed all the steps in the online help.

Thanks

Is your RH2020 version all patched up? Check the point version - there have been 3 patches so far & #4 is coming in a few days (from what we've been told here).

Hi Jeff - thanks for the reply. Yes, I'm on the very latest release.

I'd give the RH folks a buzz - see https://helpx.adobe.com/contact/enterprise-support.other.html#robohelp for your support contact options.

Thanks Jeff - will do. I've communicated via chat, but they keep saying they will get back to me and don't. Is the telephone number free? I'm assuming it's only covered based on US time? Thanks

Send them an e-mail with a link to this thread?

Good shout - I was hoping to speak to someone, but I guess those days are gone! Thanks for your help.

Will do. Thank you.

Has this been resolved? Im having the same issue with the trial now. 

[Peter Grainge]

It was resolved in Update 5. You can apply that to your trial version. Help > Check for Updates.

@Peter Grainge I am on the most recent version of the trial. I have the proper settings configured in Zendesk and Robohelp but, I am unable to publish. Within Output Presets > Publish Profile for Zendesk, my "Visible to" and "Managed by" are blank. There is nothing in dropdown and I am unable to type anything. 

What am I missing? I've been searching through forums and tutorial videos. Im not sure where to go from here.

Hi @SNB123, 

I have written you an email, regarding your availability for a meeting and we can take it forward from there..

@rajasekhar reddm66514448 I emailed you back. Thanks!

Hi @SNB123 ,

I can confirm that I did not receive any email. But I have sent you another email with an email address. Please write back to us on that email address.

Thanks,

Sorry but I can't help you on that part. Either try the email address below or the link to Support.

When you have resolved this, it would help if you could come back and post the solution.

Unfortunately, we didn't get this resolved. We had additional issues publishing to Salesforce, which still aren't resolved. We have had to take the difficult decision to switch to Flare because publishing to both these destinations is an absolute must.

I have to say that Adobe Support we extremely poor and constantly tried to push back the issue on us, even though we had tried and tested everything (which they asked us to do multiple times). They are working with my colleague to produce a build based on the fixes they have applied specificallt for us and as far as I am aware, they are looking to implement this in a forthcoming release. We are now able to publish to Salesforce with RH, albeit, we still have problems with images. It may be worth checking with support to see if anything is going to be released soon.

Sorry, not much help, but I would definitely take a look at the language setting.

I had a similar problem with Flare relating to ZenDesk and they were brilliant - check tht the language you are using in ZenDesk is the same as in RoboHelp. We have UK English in one and US English in the other. Changed in ZenDesk and it worked perfectly. Not sure if this might help with RH?
