How do I....?

When creating the Service Catalog there is a way to customize how the email alerts are sent out.  There are a nice selection of placeholders to choose from.  Is there a way to have that information appear in the actual content of the email, and not just a subject line?  As I am building out more in depth Service Catalog areas, some more description before getting to the ticket within FreshService would be helpful.  

Hi,I just can’t find how to change the status of a project in Freshservice. I can’t find how to delete them either. I could only find how to change the status of a task, but not the entire project. The project’s status doesn’t change to completed or something to that effect when all sub-tasks are closed. Surely there must be a way to do this?

Hi, I’ve been thinking if it is possible to setup like this:When user’s AD is already disabled it will sync to FreshService and it will also disabled the FreshService account. (btw im using Okta for SSO)

I’m currently setting up a number of automation workflows with orchestration to automate some of our more repetitive requests. The first one I’m trying to tackle is creation of new Teams, with custom channels, members and owners. All is well so far with creating the Team itself, but we’re having trouble creating channels for the newly created Team. Creating the channel relies on the team_id, but from what I can see, there’s no way to get or call this variable. The ‘Get Team’ function relies on team_id as the input, but interesting also gives the id as the output. Does anyone know how I can call the team_id to use this as the input for ‘Create Channel’?

Hi Everyone,Since we are using Google as our mail server, I enabled only the Google login for all the users so that no unauthorize user can accesshowever, I have now 1 external agent that is using Microsoft mail, I already created his agent account but not sure how she will be logging in to the system  

I want to create a service request type with approval process to obtain read only delegated access to an employees O365 email. I’m not able ot locate any specific App level integration that include a mailbox permission function.  Has anyone used one or will i have to revert to powershell?

Eddie is a service desk agent who keeps missing out on his Resolution SLA. Eddie's Manager advised him to watch out for tickets that is due for SLA on a daily basis. How can Eddie have these SLA critical numbers flash over him everyday? Chatbot can be Enabled from? Can i associate an incident ticket to release ticket?

I am attempting to Deploy the agent at scale using the Ivanti End Point Manager, similar to Microsoft SCCM.  In order to do this, I’m scanning each computer to see if the agent is installed and then creating a self healing task to install as needed.Does any one know what the folder path would be if the agent is installed or registry key?Something like does the folder “c:\programfiles\crowdstrike” exist or does “HKLM\SOFTWARE|CROWDSTRIKE” exist?I can’t find any documentation or even poke around on my computer for something similar to see if it exists.Any help would be appreciated.

None of my crew can log into Freshservice. Getting message “You are not allowed to access this page!”Tied in with Microsoft SSO. 

Hi All,We’re new customers to Fresh Service and was quite happy to see they had a built in request for loaner items.That as gone away. Trying to get support to explain how the loaner service works and get any real assistance is quite futile.We added our loaned items to the system. Set them to in use, assigned a user and a assigned on date.When a new loaner request comes through, it always auto assigns a device that is already on loan, NEVER auto assigns a device that is available.Has anyone else had the same issue and how did you overcome this?

I’ve made a ton of Automator Workflows for Tickets and I realized pretty quickly that if I didn’t include some version info no one but me would ever be able to work on them (to improve or repair).So I use the Description field as you can see below - each time I make a change I update the field by:increment the version number include the date  include at least a little detail about what’s changedAfter awhile those 500 characters run out so I have to truncate the field but I didn’t want to lose all that history so I created a spreadsheet where I hold all the truncated info.  I did this in both Fresh Desk and Fresh Service which is what we now use.Anyone else have any cool hacks to share?

Greetings to the community, I am setting up Fresh-Service for the first time and exploring the features, I am confused between Incident and a service request? Please some expert clarify the difference between two. I am exicited to start an amazing service with Freshwork CRM....  

We are just about to purchase some more FreshService licenses for our building Services team so they can track job.We use FS within the IT branch and have setup a specific request form for our purposes. The building services team will require different fields on the form. Is there a way that there are 2 request forms, that IT can use and building services can use? 

Can I use client.interface.trigger ("setOptions" in Freshservice interface api custom app?I could not find it in the documentation. But this is available with Freshdesk interface apiThanks.

Hi, is there a way I can make the customers share their location coordinates by pinning their location on Google maps and then sharing it on the customer form? Plz help.

Hello Team,May I know if possible to disable / hide the “ All service Items”  option in the catalog? my requestors are really overwhelmed with all the service items. I want them to see them per category. Maybe if there is option not to select/ direct to  “all service items” once user visited the service catalog.     

I’m looking for a way to reject tickets from specified requestors, specifically shared email accounts in our organization. I’m aware that I could do this via automation, but I’ve noticed that under Admin > Requesters I see that there is a category for Blocked requestors. I’m having trouble finding information on what exactly it means for a requester to be blocked, or even how to mark a requester as blocked. Any info or insight would be very much appreciated! Blocked Requestors category 

Hello,  I would like to add a placeholder for all pending approvals as well as what I have below.  What would I add to make that work.  Main issue if we have one approval and then a pending if we add another approval the one we just added to approve does not see anything because its only the last approver at the moment.  Thank you, 

Good Afternoon.How can I create the following report:- Resolution percentage % by agent group per category of tickets in a category.Example:- Category name: "Operating System"- 12 tickets exist in this category- 6 tickets out of these 12 tickets were solved by Team ABS- this means 50% of the tickets in the operating system category were solved by ABS.Thanks for the support :)
