HI Primoz,
Thanks very much for putting this together. Wondering if you might have time for a question? I am getting an "Unexpected token ILLEGAL" error on line 8 when trying to implement it with my Zendesk instance. Any ideas what the issue could be?
Thanks,
Starr

This is really exciting...would love to test it out. You mentioned writing a tutorial....any timeline for getting that done? I think I can piece it together from what you've said, but....stuff happens. ;-)
