Organization Consolidation And Presentation Of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Overview and Basis of Presentation	Note 1. Overview and Basis of Presentation Company and Background Zendesk was founded in Denmark in 2007 and reincorporated in Delaware in April 2009. Our mission is to help organizations and their customers build better relationships. We are a software development company that provides a SaaS customer service platform that enables our customers to provide tailored support through multiple channels, establish effective self-service support resources, proactively serve customers through customer engagement capabilities, integrate with other applications, and consolidate and analyze data from customer interactions. We also provide SaaS live chat software that can be utilized independently to facilitate proactive communications between organizations and their customers or integrated easily into our platform. In October 2015, we completed the acquisition of We Are Cloud SAS, or WAC, the maker of BIME Analytics software. With the acquisition, we added technology that we anticipate will allow our customers to understand the ever-increasing diversity of data about their end customers. Over time, we expect this analytics software to become a core technology within our customer service platform, enabling us to further integrate data analytics capabilities across our products. We also expect to continue to sell our analytics software on a standalone basis. References to Zendesk, the “Company”, “our”, or “we” in these notes refer to Zendesk, Inc. and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis. Basis of Presentation These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, regarding interim financial reporting. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Therefore, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015, filed on February 26, 2016. There have been no changes to our significant accounting policies described in the Annual Report on Form 10-K that have had a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2015 included herein was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, our comprehensive loss and cash flows for the interim periods, but are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be anticipated for the full year ending December 31, 2016. Follow-On Public Offering In March 2015, we completed a follow-on public offering, in which we issued 8.8 million shares of our common stock at a public offering price of $22.75 per share. We received net proceeds of $190.1 million after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of $8.7 million and other offering expenses of $0.9 million. Use of Estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported periods. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the fair value of share-based awards, acquired intangible assets and goodwill, unrecognized tax benefits, the useful lives of acquired intangible assets and property and equipment, and the capitalization and estimated useful life of our capitalized internal-use software. These estimates are based on information available as of the date of the financial statements; therefore, actual results could differ from those estimates. Concentrations of Risk As of March 31, 2016, no customers represented 10% or greater of our total accounts receivable balance. There were no customers that individually exceeded 10% of our revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2016 or 2015. Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In May 2014, the FASB issued new revenue guidance that provides principles for recognizing revenue to which an entity expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. In August 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date of adoption by one year. As currently issued and amended, the new guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period, though early adoption is permitted for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The amendment may be applied retrospectively to each prior period presented, or with the cumulative effect recognized as of the date of initial adoption. We have not yet selected a transition method and continue to evaluate the effect of the standard on our consolidated financial statements, including revenue and commissions. In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-16 “Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments,” which requires that an acquirer in a business combination recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined. The new standard is required to be applied prospectively. We adopted this guidance in the first quarter of 2016. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 regarding ASC Topic 842 "Leases." This new standard requires lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheets as lease liabilities with corresponding right-of-use assets and eliminates certain real estate-specific provisions. The new guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09 regarding Topic 718 "Compensation - Stock Compensation." This amendment changes certain aspects of accounting for share-based compensation to employees, including the recognition of income tax effects of awards when the awards vest or are settled, requirements on net share settlement to cover tax withholding, and accounting for forfeitures. The new guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements.

Business Combinations [Abstract]
Business Combination	Note 2. Business Combination On October 13, 2015, we completed the acquisition of WAC, the maker of BIME Analytics software. We acquired 100 percent of the outstanding shares of WAC in exchange for purchase consideration of $46.4 million in cash, including working capital adjustments. As partial security for standard indemnification obligations, $7.0 million of the consideration will be held in escrow for a period of up to 18 months, with a portion to be released 12 months following the closing of the acquisition. We incurred transaction costs of $1.0 million in connection with the acquisition. The transaction costs were expensed as incurred and recognized within general and administrative expenses. The fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed was based on a preliminary valuation and purchase price, and our estimates and assumptions are subject to change within the measurement period. The primary areas that remain preliminary relate to the fair values of certain tangible assets and liabilities acquired and residual goodwill. The total purchase price was allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed as set forth below (in thousands). During the three months ended March 31, 2016, we made adjustments of $37,000 to the preliminary purchase price allocation related to certain tangible assets and liabilities acquired. Net tangible assets acquired $ 2,269 Net deferred tax liability recognized (1,979 ) Identifiable intangible assets: Developed technology 8,800 Customer relationships 500 Goodwill 36,767 Total purchase price $ 46,357 The developed technology and customer relationship intangible assets were each assigned useful lives of 4.5 years. In connection with the acquisition, we entered into retention arrangements with certain employees of WAC, pursuant to which we issued RSUs for approximately 0.5 million shares of our common stock, most of which vest in three annual installments from the date of acquisition. The expense related to the RSUs is accounted for as share-based compensation expense over the required service periods and was not included in the purchase consideration. The results of operations of WAC have been included in our consolidated financial statements from the date of the acquisition.

There were no transfers between fair value measurement levels during the three months ended March 31, 2016. Gross unrealized gains or losses for cash equivalents and marketable securities as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 were not material. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, there were no securities that were in an unrealized loss position for more than 12 months. The following table classifies our marketable securities by contractual maturity as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 (in thousands): March 31, 2016 December 31, 2015 Due in one year or less $ 36,531 $ 29,414 Due after one year 18,387 22,336 Total $ 54,918 $ 51,750 For certain other financial instruments, including accounts receivable, accounts payable and other current liabilities, the carrying amounts approximate their fair value due to the relatively short maturity of these balances. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Our foreign currency exposures typically arise from foreign operations and sales in foreign currencies for subscriptions to our customer service platform. In September 2015, we implemented a hedging program to mitigate the impact of foreign currency fluctuations on our future cash flows and earnings. We enter into foreign currency forward contracts with certain financial institutions and designate those hedges as cash flow hedges. Our foreign currency forward contracts generally have maturities of 15 months or less but can extend up to 24 months. As of March 31, 2016, the balance of other accumulated comprehensive income included an unrealized gain of $1.9 million related to the effective portion of changes in the fair value of foreign currency forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges. We expect to reclassify $1.1 million from accumulated other comprehensive income into earnings over the next 12 months associated with our cash flow hedges.

Commitments And Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies	Note 7. Commitments and Contingencies Leases We lease office space under noncancelable operating leases with various expiration dates. Certain of the office space lease agreements contain rent holidays or rent escalation provisions. Rent holiday and rent escalation provisions are considered in determining the straight-line expense to be recorded over the lease term. The lease term begins on the date of initial possession of the leased property for purposes of recognizing lease expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Rent expense was $2.2 million and $1.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. We leased computer equipment from various parties under capital lease agreements that expired in March 2015. Litigation and Loss Contingencies We accrue estimates for resolution of legal and other contingencies when losses are probable and estimable. From time to time, we may become a party to litigation and subject to claims incident to the ordinary course of business, including intellectual property claims, labor and employment claims, and threatened claims, breach of contract claims, tax, and other matters. We currently have no material pending litigation. We are not currently aware of any litigation matters or loss contingencies that would be expected to have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated financial position, results of operations, comprehensive loss, or cash flows. Indemnifications In the ordinary course of business, we enter into contractual arrangements under which we agree to provide indemnification of varying scope and terms to customers, business partners and other parties with respect to certain matters, including, but not limited to, losses arising out of the breach of such agreements, intellectual property infringement claims made by third parties, and other liabilities relating to or arising from our customer service platform, live chat software, analytics software, or our acts or omissions. In these circumstances, payment may be conditional on the other party making a claim pursuant to the procedures specified in the particular contract. Further, our obligations under these agreements may be limited in terms of time and/or amount, and in some instances, we may have recourse against third parties for certain payments. In addition, we have indemnification agreements with our directors and executive officers that require us, among other things, to indemnify them against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors or officers. The terms of such obligations may vary. To date, we have not incurred any material costs, and we have not accrued any liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, as a result of these obligations. Certain of our product offerings include service-level agreements warranting defined levels of uptime reliability and performance and permitting those customers to receive credits for future services in the event that we fail to meet those levels. To date, we have not accrued for any significant liabilities in the accompanying consolidated financial statements as a result of these service-level agreements.

Employee Equity Plans Employee Stock Purchase Plan Under our Employee Stock Purchase Plan, or ESPP, eligible employees are granted options to purchase shares of our common stock through payroll deductions. The ESPP provides for eighteen-month offering periods, which include three six-month purchase periods. At the end of each purchase period, employees are able to purchase shares at 85% of the lower of the fair market value of our common stock at the beginning of an offering period or the fair market value of our common stock at the end of the purchase period. No shares of common stock were purchased under the ESPP during the three months ended March 31, 2016. Pursuant to the terms of the ESPP, the number of shares reserved under the ESPP increased by 0.9 million shares on January 1, 2016. As of March 31, 2016, 3.8 million shares of common stock were available for issuance under the ESPP. Stock Option and Grant Plans Our board of directors adopted the 2009 Stock Option and Grant Plan, or the 2009 Plan, in July 2009. The 2009 Plan was terminated in connection with our IPO in May 2014, and accordingly, no shares are available for issuance under this plan. The 2009 Plan continues to govern outstanding awards granted thereunder. Our 2014 Stock Option and Incentive Plan, or the 2014 Plan, serves as the successor to our 2009 Plan. Pursuant to the terms of the 2014 Plan, the number of shares reserved for issuance under the 2014 Plan increased by 4.5 million shares on January 1, 2016. As of March 31, 2016, we had 7.5 million shares of common stock available for future grants under the 2014 Plan. The following table summarizes our stock option and RSU award activities for the three months ended March 31, 2016 (in thousands, except per share information): Options Outstanding RSUs Outstanding Weighted Average Weighted Shares Weighted Remaining Aggregate Average Available Number of Average Contractual Intrinsic Outstanding Grant Date for Grant Shares Exercise Term Value RSUs Fair Value (In years) Outstanding — January 1, 2016 4,323 10,778 $ 11.94 7.96 $ 156,262 6,417 $ 19.54 Increase in authorized shares 4,516 Stock options granted (110 ) 110 18.48 RSUs granted (1,426 ) 1,426 14.77 Stock options exercised (386 ) 4.96 RSUs vested (785 ) 16.70 Stock options forfeited or canceled 72 (72 ) 24.32 RSUs forfeited or cancelled 91 (91 ) 20.67 Outstanding — March 31, 2016 7,466 10,430 $ 12.18 7.78 $ 91,213 6,967 $ 18.87 Aggregate intrinsic value for options outstanding represents the difference between the closing stock price of our common stock and the exercise price of outstanding, in-the-money options. Our closing stock price as reported on the New York Stock Exchange as of March 31, 2016 was $20.93. As of March 31, 2016, we had a total of $167.8 million in future share-based compensation expense related to all equity awards, net of estimated forfeitures, to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.9 years. Early Exercise of Stock Options and Purchase of Unvested Stock Awards Certain of our stock options permit early exercise. Common stock purchased pursuant to an early exercise of stock options or unvested stock awards is not deemed to be outstanding for financial reporting purposes until those shares vest. Therefore, cash received in exchange for unvested shares is recorded as a liability and is transferred into common stock and additional paid-in capital as the shares vest. Upon termination of service, we may, at our discretion, repurchase unvested shares acquired through early exercise of stock options or purchase of unvested stock awards at a price equal to the price per share paid upon the exercise of such options or the purchase of such unvested stock awards. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, there were 0.2 million and 0.3 million shares, respectively, outstanding as a result of the early exercise of stock options and purchase of unvested stock awards by our employees and directors that were classified as accrued liabilities for an aggregated amount of $0.8 million and $1.0 million, respectively.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
Net Loss Per Share	Note 9. Net Loss Per Share Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by giving effect to all potential shares of common stock, including outstanding share-based awards, to the extent dilutive. Basic and diluted net loss per share were the same for each period presented as the inclusion of all potential common stock outstanding would have been anti-dilutive. The following table presents the calculation of basic and diluted net loss per share for the periods presented (in thousands, except per share data): Three Months Ended March 31, 2016 2015 Net loss $ (27,171 ) $ (19,168 ) Basic shares: Weighted-average shares used to compute basic net loss per share 90,519 76,338 Diluted shares: Weighted-average shares used to compute diluted net loss per share 90,519 76,338 Net loss per share: Basic and diluted $ (0.30 ) $ (0.25 ) The anti-dilutive securities excluded from the shares used to calculate the diluted net loss per share are as follows (in thousands): As of March 31, 2016 2015 Shares subject to outstanding common stock options and employee stock purchase plan 10,500 12,637 Restricted stock units 6,967 4,319 17,467 16,956

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	Note 10. Income Taxes The effective tax rates for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 were less than 2%. The effective tax rates differ from the statutory rate primarily as a result of not recognizing a deferred tax asset for U.S. losses due to having a full valuation allowance against U.S. deferred tax assets. There were no material changes to the unrecognized tax benefits during the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015. In April 2009, Zendesk’s entity in Denmark (“Zendesk Denmark”) transferred certain assets to Zendesk’s U.S. entity. In April 2015, the Danish Tax Authority (“SKAT”) issued a letter of intent in contemplation of adjusting the value of the reported asset transfer. We submitted a written rebuttal to SKAT’s proposal in August 2015. In March 2016, we received an assessment from SKAT indicating that SKAT believes the value of the transferred assets to be $5.4 million. SKAT’s assessment would give rise to a potential payment of $1.9 million, including income tax and interest. We disagree with SKAT’s findings and intend to contest this assessment with the Danish National Tax Tribunal and we believe that the ultimate outcome of this matter will not have a material impact on our financial condition, liquidity or cash flows.

Overview and Basis of Presentation (Policies)	3 Months Ended

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, regarding interim financial reporting. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Therefore, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015, filed on February 26, 2016. There have been no changes to our significant accounting policies described in the Annual Report on Form 10-K that have had a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2015 included herein was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, our comprehensive loss and cash flows for the interim periods, but are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be anticipated for the full year ending December 31, 2016.
Follow-On Public Offering	Follow-On Public Offering In March 2015, we completed a follow-on public offering, in which we issued 8.8 million shares of our common stock at a public offering price of $22.75 per share. We received net proceeds of $190.1 million after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of $8.7 million and other offering expenses of $0.9 million.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported periods. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the fair value of share-based awards, acquired intangible assets and goodwill, unrecognized tax benefits, the useful lives of acquired intangible assets and property and equipment, and the capitalization and estimated useful life of our capitalized internal-use software. These estimates are based on information available as of the date of the financial statements; therefore, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Concentrations of Risk	Concentrations of Risk As of March 31, 2016, no customers represented 10% or greater of our total accounts receivable balance. There were no customers that individually exceeded 10% of our revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2016 or 2015.
Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Pronouncements	Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In May 2014, the FASB issued new revenue guidance that provides principles for recognizing revenue to which an entity expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. In August 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date of adoption by one year. As currently issued and amended, the new guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period, though early adoption is permitted for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The amendment may be applied retrospectively to each prior period presented, or with the cumulative effect recognized as of the date of initial adoption. We have not yet selected a transition method and continue to evaluate the effect of the standard on our consolidated financial statements, including revenue and commissions. In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-16 “Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments,” which requires that an acquirer in a business combination recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined. The new standard is required to be applied prospectively. We adopted this guidance in the first quarter of 2016. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 regarding ASC Topic 842 "Leases." This new standard requires lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheets as lease liabilities with corresponding right-of-use assets and eliminates certain real estate-specific provisions. The new guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09 regarding Topic 718 "Compensation - Stock Compensation." This amendment changes certain aspects of accounting for share-based compensation to employees, including the recognition of income tax effects of awards when the awards vest or are settled, requirements on net share settlement to cover tax withholding, and accounting for forfeitures. The new guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements.
