Solved

Hello! We are using the Freshdesk API to load articles into our company website. We have two distinct audiences that visit - employers and workers - and have categories setup for each of those. We are able to build distinct pages that load only the folders/articles relevant to each by using the List all Solution Folders in a Category endpoint.We also allow for visitors to search for articles. We would like to limit the search results to only articles/folders within a specific category. For instance, if a visitor uses the search from the Employers page, we only want articles that are part of the Employers category to appear.Looking at the Search solution articles endpoint, it appears this only takes a term  parameter and returns any articles across all categories and folders.Is there any way to limit the search results to a specific category?

Hi all,I would like to know if there’s a straightforward way of calculating the ticket resolution time for a selected date range and/or group/agent through the API?The endpoints don’t really make too much sense to me.The /search/tickets endpoint only allows for 300 results and has not ticket stats, so I would have to get the ticket ID and make API calls to each individual ticket to get its stats;The /tickets endpoint doesn’t allow proper filtering and has a limit of 30000 tickets, which makes it impossible for me to find the tickets I want for a period of 1 yearI have exhausted the possibilities here on how to calculate the Resolution Time for long date ranges…Can anyone enlighten me, please?Thanks!

I understand that this may take a bit of customization, but before I dive too much into that I wanted to see if anybody has had any experience with the following: We have multiple companies with individual contacts associated with them, each contact handling different tasks at different times. I want to enable a way in the customer portal for a contact to be able to change the assigned contact of the ticket to a different individual in their same company. Is this theoretically possible?

Bonjour,Je ne parviens pas à appliquer les SLA sur les tickets.l’échéance du ticket se met automatiquement à 7 jours alors que j’ai programmé 48h.

Error shown when a user tries to submit a ticket via. the portal on alltechplus.freshdesk.comI notice that several other people have had this issue in the pst judging by the related topics. I couldn’t see any obvious way to fix it myself. Had this problem for a long time now - Currently users can only submit by e-mailing in - I want to prevent opening tickets by e-mail only if possible to avoid clients creating multiple new tickets for the same issue so the submit ticket would be a great start.

Is there an editor one can use for Freshdesk themes to customize the layout, looks and feel? It’s been ages since I have done any CSS coding and the shortcodes are a bit of a boggle to me right now.  

Hello everyone,I'm using the bulk update FreshDesk API V2 to update tickets status to Resolved (status=4).When I send a list of ticket IDs, some of the tickets are updated some of tickets not.Sample of request:curl -v -u <USER:PWD> -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -X POST 'https://COMPANY.freshdesk.com/api/v2/tickets/bulk_update' -d '{"bulk_action":{"properties":{"status":4},"ids":[667243,667639]}}'Sample of response:{"job_id":"374d1fb9-93cf-44c4-932e-0571075dc034","href":"https://COMPANY.freshdesk.com/api/v2/jobs/374d1fb9-93cf-44c4-932e-0571075dc034"}Looking the FreshDesk dashboard the status never change.When I try to check the progress I had:{"code":"access_denied","message":"You are not authorized to perform this action."}However, if try to make a bulk update action setting any other status, it works.Could you support me, please?

As a product enhancement, please can we request the ticket ID is placed at the start of the subject line when a ticket is first created. This is best practice with most other service desk providers.

This feels basic but I’m really struggling!I have a few chatbots setup for our website that give or gather different pieces of information (like customer details) and resolve the chat. Works great and fully automated. We have no live agents and don’t need any in our case.I’d like the transcripts / conversations send out by email to a specific address though so that a human can follow up on each at a later point. The conversation will have any information needed.We don’t use FreshDesk and have a specialist CRM/ticketing platform so email fits for now.I’m on the Growth Plan. I can see there is an app called Advanced Automations which might help but I need Pro or Enterprise to use it which is a lot of extra cost to get an email notification.Thanks for any help.

When I press “Forgot Password” we never receive an email for password reset, whether on inbox or Spam folder.

Hi,Recently, I started a trial with Freshdesk CSS and have received numerous tickets with attachments over the past two days. Most attachments in image format can be previewed directly within the ticket page. However, I need the ability to preview PDF files and consolidate all attachments. Are there any free or paid apps available in the marketplace that offer these features?Could you suggest some options?🙂

Been working on a ticket automation that ties into power automate, I’ve had about 90% complete for a few weeks with this one part failing for me.  I have the ticket Automator built out shown in the screenshot, where it’s failing is sending out the approval, I don’t want to send it to the department head or reporting manager. I’m trying to have it send to one of our ticket groups, which is our security team. Tried setting it to be hardcoded to my email for testing and never get the approval, put our teams group and never saw that receive an approval email. Would love a simple way to finish this automation so aside from just assigning it to the security team, they are the ones to approve it. Automation and email

I’m new in freshdesk and I have the same question, however, the topic has been closed.Is there a way to adjust the size of the description field ? Most of my customers want to include a printscreen in the text, but then the windows of the description field is way to small.

Our CIO responded to an email created by a ticket he had submitted. It added his responses as public notes rather than replies. Because of this, the automation to close abandoned tickets after 72 hours ended up closing the ticket, despite him replying. I have not seen this behavior before.  He is an occasional agent, not a requester, but when agents respond to email tickets, it correctly adds them as replies.I found some threads about a similar issue that are 7 years old. Has this been fixed? There is no modifier to “count” public notes. Public notes also don’t resolve the First Response, has to be an actual reply.  

As per the following document, how should I start the conversation?https://www.freshworks.com/assets/resources/AI_Jumpstart.pdfWhom should I send a request and connect to?I could not find any webpage except that PDF to initiate the conversation.Kindly guide me with the further steps. I am looking this for an existing customer who has already explored freshchat but doesn’t know the further flow to utilize the services.

Hi, I just copy a request from another person because it is exactly the same issue that I am facing and this really needs to be changed because this wrong translation is confusing for our agents  We frequently experience issues with our agents that assign the wrong status to a ticket.In english it says "Pending", meaning that the agent is waiting on input from the user. Dutch translation according to Freshservice is "In behandeling", translated to english this means "in progress" or "please hold, i'm working on your ticket".These are 2 completely different statusses.Pending is translated by google translate to "In afwachting van". The translation we made for our customers is "In afwachting van uw antwoord". Translated freely this means "awaiting your reply".So is it possible to change the translation of Pending in Dutch towards “In afwachting”?Kr,Koen

Because this AI Bot chat, I can’t click Save.

I want some things that I can't quite get done. Preferably just with Automations. But I understand that I need Webhook? But I don't understand why and how that works. What do I want:1. If subject starts with X then automatically adjust subject.2. If subject contains X in subject, then reply with email with attachment Y in the reply.3. If email has been sent to X, reply with email address Y.Is this possible with automations, and without Webhook? And if not, how exactly should I use Webhook? Can that be done without a developer?I don't use external tools now. We are a small company. And we would like to set up Freshdesk properly.

Hi all,new to here but have had Freshdesk in service for about 4 years.Recently, our agents responses have stopped being received by the recipient, very odd.We had this late last year, and resolved the issue. Just this week, it’s started to happening again, and I have no idea why.We use a custom mail server. Delete emails after fetching is unticked.Any other information needed? Thanks,Anthony.

Apparently, the Asset Assignment History has been released, but it is not appearing on our web interface and the API (what I really want to use) returns a “403 forbidden” error.Example, curl -v -u api_key:<my_key> -X "Content-Type: application/json" -X GET https://<my_domain>.freshservice.com/api/v2/assets/<display_id>/assignment-historyWhat do I need to do to add the feature and/or allow access?

I want to delete 3 checkbox(I’m looking for help with) in export tickets, in portals support/tickets.I cannot find the configuration page, who can tell me where to configure it?

Within the business hours section of Freshservice, I’m looking for some clarification. I have a time zone currently set as (GMT+00:00) London as this should be set to the time zone within the UK.We have now moved into daylight saving hours BST and GMT+00:00 would now be incorrect.. To ensure we keep within the current time zone, do I need to move to any manual GMT+1 even though there is no option for London? I assume this to be the case, but would like to know if I’m missing anything.

Hi, can I set a limit numer of tickets submitted by a specific customer?

Hi, When I am creating an article, I add a link to another article from solutions. When I am trying to open the created link it is not allowing me and it opens the homepage although the link is reflecting. FYR we have closed common access to solutions. i.e. articles are available for our agents only. I use a lot of links and this would be really helpful if you could give me a solution to this.
