Adding a Google group as a secondary support email

We are (unsuccessfully) trying to add a secondary support email for our developer relations team. It is a google group account and so can not sign in via SSO, and does not have a username/password. I can’t find any documentation for how Freshdesk expects us to connect this account so that incoming emails get pushed into their system. Any help would be appreciated.

Freshdesk very long SPF record is a problem

Hi, we are using Freshdesk support desk and until now Freshdesk has been sending email’s on our behalf. This means that we have to add email.freshdesk.com to our SPF record. This means that Freshdesk alone adds 8 DNS queries to our SPF record and the standard allows for only 10 in total.For comparison Microsoft adds two for the whole of Office 365.Now, what i have feared has happened and we have passed the limit and our SPF record is not valid anymore. I don’t know if we added the one or if Freshdesk added another sub record.There is really two problems, one is the size of the record to begin with and the other is that Freshdesk can add subrecords at anytime without any of their customers knowing and pushing that client over the limit.I think therefore it is very important for suppliers that have SPF that is used by alot of customers to be very small and maintained correct.One solution is to create your SPF record and then only add ip addresses to this record that you then maintain whe

Email Delivery Latency with Ticket updates and Creation

We are seeing email delivery latency with ticket creation, updates to tickets lately. It is not happening all of the time, but sporadically. Some emails will come in an hour after a ticket is updated, and have had some where the emails are not reaching their target from 4 hours and have had a few up to 13 hours after a ticket was updated. Looking through the archives, it seems this has been a topic of conversation, but wanted to see if any others are experiencing this type of latency?

Add a training (videos) section

Hi! My company has a portal for Solutions (articles) and another for Support (tickets). I would like to have a place to present videos and other information for new customers to explain them how account configuration works and guide them. Should I create a new portal or a custom section in the theme (we have a custom theme with Breezy)? I’m not sure what is possible.

Sorting tickets based on contacts

Hello!Is it possible to sort tickets by contacts, e.g. using the provided name or email address of the contact?Or alternatively to have an overview of the number of tickets / tickets when viewing all contacts.We usually have several tickets from the same contact and overviewing them or sorting through them would be easier if we could sort tickets based on contact info.Greetings!

Customer Portal - Sort Messages Feature MISSING

Since the agent portal has a feature to sort replies and comments by date (most recent or oldest), it would be nice to have this feature for free in the agent portal.To expand further, when you visit the customer portal, what you see is the oldest message on the top of the webpage here: What is missing is a way to sort the messages in any way, this is rather incovieneint for customers with very long threads and hundreds of messages. They need to scroll all the way to the bottom of the page to see the most recent response in this view. Furthermore, a customer could sort their tickets by oldest - newest or vice versa. As you can see below, this feature exists for tickets in the customer portal, but not for replies.

How can I get the parent id in the same line as the child ticket in an export of tickets?

how can you get an export from freshdesk where in the child tickets the ticket id of the parent item is also included? Now you only have the relation (parent or child) but when you have a child ticket, it would be useful to have the number of the parent ticket in the export for reporting purposes. Anyone has an idea?

Removing Customer Support Portal

Hello, I’m thinking about removing the customer support portal for my business. We have created a new support website which uses freshdesk APIs to display our solutions and the support widget so we don’t want the old support portal to be accessible to customers anymore (although our agents will still be using their side which is not customer facing). I couldn’t find how to do this in the admin panel so some direction would be greatly appreciated.Thank you!

Rename the "Example" product.

Hello, I am starting out on Freshdesk and using the free plan. People who communicate with my helpdesk get emails from “Example” (ex: “Example <support@mydomain.com>”). I see “Example” in the portal settings page, but I don’t see a place to modify that to something more appropriate. I saw in the “Multiple Products” page where I could add more products, but not modify the name of the “Example” product. I have looked around elsewhere but can’t find anywhere else in the admin settings where I can change or remove that “Example” product. Can someone tell me where to go to modify it OR at least change the FROM email address so my customers aren’t seeing “Example” in my emails to them?

Web Forms with Conditional Logic

Hello!Has anyone had any luck with an integration that allows you to create web forms (surveys, questionnaires etc) with conditional logic that can automatically create a ticket for agents? Is there a native functionality that I’ve somehow missed?Thanks in advance!

FreshDesk to FresDesk

Hi All,I have a situation where we have a 3rd party provider that also utilises FreshDesk, I have it so that my FreshDesk as part of automation sends an email to the 3rd party FreshDesk and creates at ticket their end but any response from the 3rd party via their FreshDesk reported ticket creates a new ticket in my FreshDesk rather than appending to the original ticket in my FreshDesk.Is there a way to resolve this, any help appreciated. Thanks

Threads Discussion - Parts of the text get lost

In Threads Discussion you can send messages with the key combination CTRL+Enter instead of the “Send” button.However, if you use the key combination, it often happens that only part of the written text is sent and not the complete text. The other part of the text is lost and cannot be called up again.What could be the cause of this error or how can we avoid it?Thanks

Agent not receiving email notifications, forwarded emails are not creating tickets!

Email notifications were working fine three days ago. Now it is Monday and I, the administrator of our Freshdesk account, am no longer receiving email notifications for new tickets, responses, updates, etc. I also can no longer forward an email to our help desk email to automatically create a ticket. My other agent is not having any of these problems whatsoever, everything is working completely normally for him. I have looked through all settings (nothing has been changed in the past three days), support documentation, checked our Exchange server, and it is not a problem on our end.The most troubling part of this is we now have zero way of telling if users are emailing tickets that are not reaching us. PLEASE HELP!
