# dbt_zendesk_source v0.10.1
[PR #43](https://github.com/fivetran/dbt_zendesk_source/pull/43) introduces the following updates:

## Feature Updates
- Added the `zendesk__internal_user_criteria` variable, which can be used to mark internal users whose `USER.role` may have changed from `agent` to `end-user` after they left your organization.
- Example usage:
```yml
# dbt_project.yml
vars:
zendesk__internal_user_criteria: "lower(email) like '%@fivetran.com' or external_id = 12345 or name in ('Garrett', 'Alfredo')" # can reference any non-custom field in USER

Omg love this example!

```
- Output: In `stg_zendesk__user`, users who match your criteria and have a role of `end-user` will have their role switched to `agent`. This will ensure that downstream SLA metrics are appropriately calculated.

## Under the Hood
- Updated the way we dynamically disable sources. Previously, we used a custom `meta.is_enabled` flag, but, since we added this, dbt-core introduced a native `config.enabled` attribute. We have opted to use the dbt-native config instead.

### Add passthrough columns
This package includes all source columns defined in the staging models. However, the `stg_zendesk__ticket` model allows for additional columns to be added using a pass-through column variable. This is extremely useful if you'd like to include custom fields to the package.
```yml
vars:
zendesk__ticket_passthrough_columns: [account_custom_field_1, account_custom_field_2]
```

### Mark Former Internal Users as Agents

reminder to myself to add this to the transform README (no release needed there tho) after approval

If a team member leaves your organization and their internal account is deactivated, their `USER.role` will switch from `agent` or `admin` to `end-user`. This will skew historical ticket SLA metrics, as we calculate reply times and other metrics based on `agent` or `admin` activity only.

To persist the integrity of historical ticket SLAs and mark these former team members as agents, provide the `zendesk__internal_user_criteria` variable with a SQL clause to identify them, based on fields in the `USER` table:

```yml
# dbt_project.yml
vars:
zendesk__internal_user_criteria: "lower(email) like '%@fivetran.com' or external_id = 12345 or name in ('Garrett', 'Alfredo')" # can reference any non-custom field in USER
```

### Change the build schema
By default, this package builds the zendesk staging models within a schema titled (`<target_schema>` + `_zendesk_source`) in your target database. If this is not where you would like your Zendesk staging data to be written to, add the following configuration to your root `dbt_project.yml` file:
