Hi,
I've tried the built-in (beta) connector to zendesk, and give it our organization's URL in this format:
https://OurCompany.zendesk.com
It's connects fine, but importing data is *slow*. I'm accustomed to importing data from all over the place, but nothing has been remotely this bad.
Anyone have any insight?
Thanks!
Hi @mmace1
You can try a paid solution as an alternatiuve way to fetch Zendesk data you need to Power BI with a higher speed - https://www.zendesk.com/marketplace/apps/support/834457/power-bi-connector-by-alpha-serve/

@mmace1,
What version of Power BI Desktop do you use? How about you connect to the Zendesk PBIT file?

I'm having the same issue when puuling data from Zendesk into Power BI.
I have selected just 2019 data and its spinning for more than 30 min now.
Any workable solution?
Thanks
Thanks.

Using that file - it errors out due to many-to-many relationships. But, if I ignore that & say just try to refresh the Tickets - it goes 20 minutes without conclusion (at which point I gave up).
@mmace1,
The performance issue could be caused by large amount of data. Could you please reduce the amount of your data by filtering and check if the issue still occurs?

Things will definitly load - it's just the speed.
E.g, pulling in:
So it is the amount of data - but the workable amount of data is incredibly low, due to the incredibly slow speed.
Has anyone had any further updates on the speed of Zendesk refreshes?
My Zendesk report is built using the Zendesk (beta) connector, and takes a ridiculously long time to refresh given the size of the data model (not too big).
You can see from my images below the refresh takes nearly 2hrs to complete and the number of rows in each of my tables.
I certainly haven't at least. Our 'solution' was to just not pull Zendesk info into Power BI.
