Hey Carlos,

Zendesk doesn't maintain an official repo for types at this time. I'd suggest looking in to third party repositories such as the one you linked.

Thanks!

@tipene I would just like to point out that if you had published OpenAPI definitions for your APIs then this would not be a problem, because we could programmatically generate types using popular open-source tools. Zendesk is neither providing official SDKs, nor the resources that the open-source community requires to build their own, and that's baffling to me, for a service of Zendesk's market share.

Perhaps you could weigh in on this other topic where a fellow support representative said two years ago that OpenAPI definitions were "getting close".

Any news on this topic? I'm currently making my own typings for a React/typescript (SPA). But it takes a lot of time to figure out what responses you get from ZAF. So I'd rather use a "safer" option maintained by Zendesk, so we know it's correct.
