  • LogicDraft eligibility rationale
  • OutputPost verdict as internal note on ticketZendeskZendesk

What it does

Every new Zendesk ticket tagged as a refund request is scored against your refund policy before a human touches it. It pulls the original purchase date from Stripe, compares it to the configured window (for example 30 days), and writes a clear eligible / not-eligible verdict plus the reasoning as an internal note on the ticket.

When to use it

Use it when agents waste time manually looking up purchase dates and re-reading the policy on every refund ask. It removes the guesswork and gives a consistent, auditable decision before the reply goes out.

How it works

  1. 1A new Zendesk ticket tagged `refund-request` fires the trigger.
  2. 2The flow extracts the customer email and looks up their most recent charge in Stripe.
  3. 3A logic step compares the charge date to the policy window and flags edge cases (no charge found, multiple charges).
  4. 4It drafts a short rationale citing the exact dates and the rule applied.
  5. 5The verdict and rationale are posted as an internal note on the ticket for the agent to confirm and send.
