Hi.

Not sure how your users are registering, but they should precisely receive an Account Activation email with a link for that.

If they don’t receive it (after checking Spam, etc.), it means exactly that; they may have used an invalid account.

They may attempt to re-register.

You/your agents/depending on Access Rights, may edit the contacts’ email addresses, and then resend the Verification Email for them, in order your clients would indicar validate their account.

Hope this helps.

Best,

Thank you for your reply. We don’t ask our users to register--we help U.S. voters, and many users would not submit their questions if we required them to create an account.  We rely on them to enter their email address correctly on the ticket form, and often they don’t do that. If it’s an obvious typo (ie gnail.com instead of gmail.com) we can edit that and send a reply. But often the typo isn’t obvious. 

Many contact forms require you to confirm your email address by entering it a second time. I’m not sure why Freshdesk couldn’t offer that option as a ticket field.

Hi Alene.

Thank you very much clarifying your use case.

I guess Freshworks is thinking on my initial response: To validate it through Email.

Being that the case, I think you could create a custom field in Field Manager in order to request the email confirmation.

Sadly, currently, Business rules can’t be used in this case.

But in a workflow, you could use the Expression Builder in order to comparte both fields. If they don’t match, you may either write a private note to your agents, or may be even send an email to both email accounts.

Regards,
