Hi Freshworks community,
I’m facing an issue where my automation rules in Freshdesk aren’t triggering as expected. I’ve set up several rules for ticket assignments and responses, but some of them don’t seem to activate when they should. I’ve double-checked the conditions and made sure everything is configured properly, but the issue persists. Has anyone else experienced this, or can you suggest what I might be missing? Any help or insights would be much appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

I had the same issue in FreshService a while back. Support wasn’t able to assist with the issue or explain why it happened. I ended up moving the workflow order around and it has worked perfectly ever since. Try adjusting your Workflow order to see if that helps at all.

Hi Alexshafi,

It seems like you've done some troubleshooting already. Here are a few things to check:

  1. Condition Overlap – Make sure there are no conflicting rules that might prevent the automation from triggering.
  2. Priority Order – Automation rules run in order, so higher-priority ones might override others.
  3. Ticket Visibility – Ensure tickets meet the specified visibility conditions for rules to apply.

For example, at LimoServiceDC.net, automation can manage booking requests by sending confirmations or assigning tickets based on customer type. If this isn't working, you may want to review the settings or contact Freshdesk support.

Hope that helps!
