Getting Started

Hi, Is there a way that I can set “visibility” rules on Service Items that applies for all users, i.e. Requester + Agents?I can’t find a way. If I for example would like to publish a service item for users in a specific location I would like that rule to apply all users but I do not understand how to achieve that.We have quite many Agents spread across many departments and geographical locations and it will be difficult over time if we can not apply the same rules for them as they as employees in many situations are Requesters.

Is it possible to create a service catalog item that a requestor can use to select items from a list and add a quantity to a “request form” then have the total cost of everything being requested shown on the form before it get’s submitted?T​​​​hanks in advance for any thoughts!

Hello,Help with configuring Pandora FMS  alerting, I am using Freshservice Thank you in advance

Trying to get this module to be useful. I can’t customize it because even if I turn off Asset/Software, these tickets still exist. The 2nd Revoke Software access is one I created to try to get around the fact that you can’t alter certain fields, but that didn’t work, and now it’s just stuck there.Is there a way to reset the offboarding module or delete these child tickets? 

Good day, I have a template with a lot of custom fields in, some of which I would like to have the data replicated in an email as part of an associated workflow. Could someone please explain to me how this is achieved as there doesn't appear to be any logical way of doing this. Thank you.

We have the below form to order a mobile phone but would like to set up a workflow where if they answer no to the circled questions it will send them an email with information about 8x8 instead. Within the workflow builder I cannot find any placeholders where I can create a condition that checks the answers of the circled questions in the form below. Any help/guidance would be greatly appreciated 😊 

Hi our company is currently using the onboarding users in the portal page my manager has a requirement that if the person being hired is from Finance or Accounts department then the additional dropdown field will enable and vice versa. We also use workflow for onboarding, how will you fix this one? Expressions or condition on work flow? Thanks

I don’t like how a user can mistype the default email address and create new/potentially invalid requester records. I want that to be a lookup over requesters. In what way can we bypass the default behavior? Other areas allow user lookups with the type ahead/search control.  

 Is there any way to remove this field or change it a plain text field? Currently it’s hardcoded to require an email address for an individual you’re requesting items for. We have some instances where an employee or a new hire does not have an email address yet and it would slow things down if we had to wait for an email address to be created before ordering certain items from the catalog for them (before their start date etc). If I select the filed, I can’t remove it and can’t change it to remove the Display to Requestor field. I have full admin access so not sure why I can’t edit this?  Any thoughts or ideas would be much appreciated.

Hi everyone,I've recently started using Freshservice and encountered a frustrating issue when trying to add attachments while logging a new ticket. Here's what's happening:Issue Description:When users log a new ticket in Freshservice, they enter their ticket details and try to add an attachment (text, JPEG, or DOC files). After selecting the file and returning to the "Log New Ticket" screen, the "Log Ticket" button is greyed out, preventing ticket creation. Users can only successfully create a new ticket if they do so without an attachment. They can then add the attachment later by editing the newly created ticket.Steps Taken So Far:Checked File Sizes: The attachments are well within the allowed size limits. Form Rules: No specific form rules that could be causing this issue have been identified. Support Contacted: Freshservice support initial

Hi, I have a workflow that should be triggered by a Change item being updated or created, but it doesn’t seem to be working. At the moment, the flow should simply trigger a webhook (specifically a Power Automate flow), with it sending some of the form information for further processing. I’ve tried creating a new change and then updating its status, but nothing appears in the Execution Logs page. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi All,New to FreshService and just exploring the HR Onboarding Requests, pretty cool feature. Just wondering if it’s possible for the request to generate tasks under 1 ticket, instead of multiple child tickets?

Hi !I am an brand new user of Freshservice and I would like to set up an export to track ticket movements.Ideally this export should contain :- the ticket number- the date of the group change- the source group- the destination groupHas anyone managed to do this?  

The objective is to understand end-user behavior on their most used keywords to refine CX and work on better knowledge article.

 Hi, we’re customizing our portal for our staff and all seems to work OK except if we ‘unhide’ the Request for a Change card it doesn’t become visible in the preview and doesn’t show up when published. All the other cards turn on and off the cards as expected.  Anything obvious we’re likely to be missing.  See image below.thanksAndy

Have you enabled Dark Mode in your instances? How about switching to Neo portal for a quick check or setting or changing your password or resetting your 2FA?That makes a huge visual impact, right?I guess the next step in Dark Mode should be Neo.Do you agree?In case you do, here’s the Idea in order you could vote on it:Dark Mode in Neo portal | Freshworks Community Regards,

 Problems with FreshService We are currently evaluating FreshService and have a trial version installed. FreshService is being compared to HaloITMS used elsewhere in our organizatoin. Most of our evaluation time has been spent on FreshService, and we have a desire to choose it, which has previously been communicated to FreshWorks and FreshWorks' Norwegian partne, i.e 99% probably that we would chose FreshService. However, we have encountered some "logical flaws" in FreshService that we need to figure out. These may be due us not fully understanding what Freshworks has intended as best practices in use of FreshService or not knowing the product well enough. Main Issues: We want users (requestors) to be able to report an issue (ticket) as either an incident or a service request.   When registering an incident (typically a fault situation), a simple form should be filled out. It should be possible to paste images into

Hello everyone :)is it possible to move a ticket to another workspace and then adding the previous agent as a watcher?I didn’t see an option to do that nor does the workflow automator seem to allow this.We’ll have agents for each workspace and they’re supposed to be confined in their respective workspaces; so straight up giving them access to the other workspaces is unfortunately not an option for us.edit:In the workflow automator we can set an action to add specific watchers to the ticket after it is moved to another workspace, but we need it to auto-pick the agent that originally grabbed the ticket.

Hey,this is a somewhat strange behaviour. We have a ticket field where the requester can enter a date to let the agents know at which day they can work on the ticket. Basically a desired date for when the work could be done.Now I had a discussion with one of the requesters, because he put in the wrong date and then complained. This happened a few times. After some talking he told me that the date format is american (week starting on sunday). We use the calendar where the week starts on monday.After finding the root of the wrongly entered dates I figured this should be an easy fix. The strange thing I discovered is that the same field is formatted differently depending on if you look at it as requester or as agent. This is true for all our agents and all requesters. I couldn’t find any option to change this. First I thought it was a personal account setting, but all accounts have set everything to german.The following two pictures is from the

Hi Everyone,I’m an IT Service Delivery Manager, experienced with Cherwell ITSM, Zendesk, and a Jira Service Desk administrator in a previous life. I’m new to using Fresh Service, I’ve had some training, albeit limited to certain modules and certain features.My question that I’d like to ask is:I have 2 workspaces, one for “IT” which serves as the primary workspace. We have created a new workspace “Asset Management” because there is another entity in our group of companies that wishes to use Fresh too. We believe that there is a lot of benefit of them joining the fray, so I create a workspace for that business. I have also created a seperate CAB for the new workspace to utilise and added the relevant agents from that business who I want to be members.What I’m wanting to do is to have a Change Management Process for the IT workspace that I have, and then to have another seperate Change Management Process for the new workspace I have created. For clarity, whe

Is there a way, I can use Client Script, or UI script on a Service item/Service Catalog.I want to fill in data based on fields, dependent fields, and add custom logic. Thanks!

Hello community, I would normally go to the support team for this but seeing how they are a bit delayed at the moment (hoping everyone is ok), I thought I would reach out here to see if anyone has posed this question before. Does anyone happen to know how long data resides on the FS servers once something has been deleted? I know it says once we delete a ticket and remove it from trash, it is unrecoverable. However, I am curious how long it takes to actually remove it from the AWS server. Thanks in advance for any insight anyone can provide!Zach
