Open a Detractor Recovery Task in Linear for Every Bad Score

When a CSAT detractor response arrives in Zendesk, create a tracked recovery task in Linear assigned to the account owner, with the customer context and a follow-up due date.

What it does

Converts every detractor CSAT response into an accountable, trackable recovery task rather than a fleeting alert. It creates a Linear issue containing the ticket summary, the customer's verbatim complaint, and a 48-hour due date, assigns it to the right owner, and drops a short confirmation in Slack so the team knows it is captured.

When to use it

Use this when Slack alerts get lost and you need detractor follow-up to live in your actual work tracker with an owner and a deadline. It is the right fit for teams that measure recovery as a closeable task, not just a notification.

How it works

  1. 1A Zendesk webhook fires when a satisfaction rating is recorded.
  2. 2A logic step continues only for detractor scores and skips everything else.
  3. 3An action assembles ticket details and maps the account to its owner.
  4. 4An action creates a Linear issue titled with the customer name, body filled with context, and a due date 48 hours out.
  5. 5The final step posts a Slack note linking the new Linear issue to the recovery channel.
