**Before you begin:** If you're restricting access to your Zendesk account using [IP restrictions](https://support.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/203663706-Restricting-access-to-your-Zendesk-using-IP-restrictions-Enterprise), you must include [these IPs](https://support.geckoboard.com/en/articles/6055721-geckoboard-ip-addresses-to-allow) to connect to Geckoboard.

1. Add a new **Zendesk Talk** widget from your dashboard.
2. Select a widget type from the available options.
3. In the connection panel, enter the subdomain of your Zendesk account. The subdomain can be found in your login details. For example, if you log in to Zendesk at `https://your-company-url.zendesk.com`, your subdomain is `your-company-url`.

4. Click **Connect via Zendesk Talk** on the connection panel. You'll be asked to permit Geckoboard to access your account.
