Quick Search for Zendesk

A small, focused shortcut for the Zendesk Admin Center. Press Alt+K anywhere on a Zendesk page. A search box opens. Type a few letters. Hit Enter. You're on the right page. That's the whole extension. What you can search - Admin Center pages — Tickets, Channels, People, Workspaces, Apps & Integrations, Account, Objects & Rules, and the rest of the settings tree. - Your tenant's configuration objects — triggers, automations, macros, views, groups, SLA policies, ticket forms, ticket fields, user fields, organization fields, custom roles, and dynamic content. To search a configuration object, type a prefix and a colon, then start typing: trigger:welcome → triggers whose name contains "welcome" macro:1234567890 → the macro with that exact id view: → every shared view in the tenant The first time you use a prefix on a tenant, the extension asks you to build a small local cache by reading the matching admin API. After that, searches are instant and offline. Cache searches default to active records only. Press Alt+I in the spotlight to include inactive ones alongside the active results. If a cache needs rebuilding — because records were renamed, added, or removed — the spotlight shows a Stale signal next to that object type. Use the stale: prefix to set how long a cache stays fresh (stale:1, stale:3, stale:5, or stale:7 days). The default is 3 days. How navigation works - Enter — open in the same tab. - Cmd+Enter / Ctrl+Enter (or middle-click) — open in a new tab. - Esc, clicking outside the box, or pressing Alt+K again — close. Light and dark The search overlay automatically matches the page you're on. Zendesk's light theme, dark theme, and any future theme — it follows along. Privacy — everything stays in your browser - No accounts. No setup. - No analytics, no telemetry, no error reporting. - No third-party servers — the extension never sends data anywhere. - The only network requests are direct calls to your own Zendesk tenant's admin API, made only when you click Build cache. - Your local cache lives in your browser. Clearing site data wipes it. Open source Source is on GitHub under the MIT license. Around 1,500 lines of plain JavaScript — short enough to read in one sitting if you ever want to verify what it does. Cache builds are paced to stay within your Zendesk plan's API rate limit. The default is 200 requests per minute (Suite Team tier). Use the rpm: prefix to pick a higher tier if your plan allows — rpm:400, rpm:700, or rpm:2500. The Options popover (cogwheel in the spotlight footer, or Ctrl+, / Cmd+,) shows your current settings at a glance. Customize the shortcut Don't like Alt+K?
