For a helpdesk platform, this helpdesk in itself, is absolutely the worst experience imaginable.I have been using freshdesk from the early days when it was clean and simple. Things are getting worse, not better. As far as I can see, all freshdesk is doing is finding ways to milk customers for ridiculous features that should be in the paid package. For a couple of years now, things have been getting systematically worse. its not what I signed up for anymore, and I wish they would stop reducing features, adding garbage, and breaking stuff. Right now, my response emails have now stopped working. If this can't get resolved, i guess this is the final straw and its time to move on. What a frustrating waste of my time this has all been.I would not currently recommend freshdesk to anyone.

since a few days the emails for my ticket responses are bouncing. This kinda makes the helpdesk pointless, as I don't think customers are getting my responses anymore.it has worked reliably for years. Nothing has changed here.cinemaplugins is my account.

Freshdesk stopped sending email notifications, their email server appears to not be sending mail. Does anybody know if there is a way to debug this? Thank you!

When I add a new agent the invitation mail is not sent...

We have problems with a lot of incoming emails that are not creating the tickets.Thanks.

Scheduled maintenance is under progress We will be up and running soon, Please check again later.Please help. We're getting this error for veuxbeauty.freshdesk.com

I've set up our contact for to send an email notification directly to our Freshdesk email address but the messages aren't being received and/or being converted to tickets.I checked the email log on SendGrid, and it shows the message was delivered. I'm using the same configuration for other sites without issues. Any idea what's happening?

Hi,I've had a few users complain in the last couple of days of a new bug whilst typing.So within the text field box replying to customers, the cursor starts back to the beginning after half way through typing a sentence. They have told me they have noticed this in the past 3-6 days. I've had 3 users complain about this. Any ideas?Thanks,Sam

Hi,When forwarding emails out of FD, if the recipient wanted to place notes and send them back into the queue, how would that take place? 

Hello,I can't seem to find a Reply button created by Contacts without an email. The Reply button shows up when I tried entering a random email.How do I enable the Reply button without having to enter an email for contacts?

Hello, I have been unable to login to freshdesk for three weeks now and requesting a password reset link does not work at all. I emailed support and they sent me a link to sign up for a support account. This is not what I asked for and when I sent them a reply email explaining what it was I was actually looking for, they did not respond. Does anyone know how one goes about getting their password reset when they are an agent?

Hi Freshdesk,We are working now more than 6 weeks together to fix my ssl dns settings for my fresh desk page. And we tried to put the dns for freshmarketer. And both still doen't work. Both servers are worthless at the moment.Can you explain me what we are doing wrong? I am going to believe that your service will not match our requirements and that your customer care is not able to fix te problem. Please make sure that someone calls or email us with expert knowledge of dns setting. Please make sure that some generally customer care employe with no knowledge of dns settings will call me, because that will not fix the problem.Please help!!Niek

Hello Freshdesk Team,we can't turn on the requestor notification and customer survey in multi languages, because it will always send the English notification instead of those for other languages.   The problem appears to be that the language recognition for new contacts always as english, while our customers are in german. I would appreciate it if you could look into this.

HiMy account does not send any type of mail, I cannot respond to my clients and I do not receive any of the notifications that I have active.Note: tickets arrive but I cannot answer my clientsThanks.Bye.

I realize there are a number of threads here with a similar topic, but they are marked as answered and I wanted to make sure this gets attention as it is still happening. Just as in the other threads, I am trying to setup DKIM for my email address, but am unable to do so as when I click create it takes me to the old login screen and then crashed upon login.Would love to get this fixed.

I'm looking at the API documentation for filtering tickets here: https://developer.freshdesk.com/api/#filter_ticketsUnder the highlighted 'notes' section, it states:1. Archived tickets will not be included in the results2. The query must be URL encoded3. Query can be framed using the name of the ticket fields, which can be obtained from Ticket Fields endpoint. Ticket Fields are case sensitiveIf I look at the Ticket Fields endpoint as suggested, I see that 'description' is listed as a valid ticket field. However, if I try the following query I get an invalid field error:curl -v -u "${API_KEY}":X -X GET 'https://bitx.freshdesk.com/api/v2/search/tickets?query="description:%27Test%27"'{"description":"Validation failed","errors":[{"field":"description","message":"Unexpected/invalid field in request","code":"invalid_field"}]}

For each customer, i have generated an url to login to Freshdesk from my asp.net app and it worked. Here is example link: https://danhvyhthelp.freshdesk.com//login/sso?name=Vy+Tran&email=danhvyht%40gmail.com&timestamp=1586769870&hash=7eb3ef430e1e6f5f2dd3d8d2f53419eaCurrently, that url is not working and redirect to https://danhvyhthelp.freshdesk.com/login/normal how can i resolve this issue?

For some reason, Freshdesk logs me out of the system at least once a day while I am working on a ticket. This happens for everyone in our organisation too. Only does it once per day, usually within the first hour of using the system and always mid way through working on a ticket.Any ideas what could be happening?

When creating a new JIRA using the JIRA Plus app, you get a form with the fields to populate. In the top right corner, there is the possibility of selecting optional Jira fields to be displayed.Once it is selected, the optional fields are shown, tick boxes checked and saved. The selected fields are not displayed on the form. Has anyone seen this?

I'm in charge of the Amara help forum. So far, none ot the topics marked as spam by the filter were actually spam. The spam issue is rather with tickets, because they can be created by hst sending an email to some @amara.org addresses, whereas in order to post on the forum, you have to create an ID. The last instance of a forum topic falsely tagged spam by the filter was the perfectly legitimate https://support.amara.org/support/discussions/topics/314491. Could you explain what triggered this false positive, please? Thank you in advance.

Has anyone found a third-party app they can recommend using to retrieve data from requesters in one go? Currently, the canned forms FreshDesk has launched lacks professionalism in looks and doesn't provide the ability to add attachments which would be ideal when handling warranty requests!Any suggestions?

Hi - I am trying to get reports split by second (or third) level of a dependent variable. I am aware of the function to filter by all levels of the dependent variable but actually would like to see it in one graph. Does this work in the build-in reporting?Thanks :)
