Hi, is there a way to completely control what related articles will show under/next to an article on the knowledge base?I want to have the ability to have complete control over this - and each article should have different “Related articles”

Once a ticket has been added to freshservice from freshdesk thread integration , then we are unable to merge two tickets in freshdesk with freshservice threads. Is there any solution for same 

We currently house our knowledge articles in Google Docs.  Is there an integration with FreshDesk knowledge base.  We want to keep our articles in Google Docs, but would like to implement FreshDesk’s knowledge base.  

Can FreshDesk open the attachment in the browser instead of downloading it for .pdf files?  I tried Chrome and Edge. If the attachment is .txt or .jpg file, it will display it in a new tab. If it behaves differently depending on the file types, what/where is the setting manages this behavior? The reason why I want open the attachment in the browser is that I hope to print directly from the browser instead of download-open-print. 

Hi, bit of a noob question but we have the standard portal at FreshService;https://companyname.freshservice.com/support/homeAfter a user logs a ticket and then activates their account they get redirected to log onto this portal. We also have a custom portal configured we were going to use for customers;https://ouraccountname.companyname/support/home My ‘test’ customer account can sign into either portal and get the same view of cards, open tickets etc.  So is there a way of making our custom portal ‘default’ for customers without them being redirected automatically to the standard portal if they click on a ticket link in an email. I’ve just clicked on a link for my test account to open a ticket and got directed tohttps://companyname.freshservice.com/support/tickets/54 thanks  

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?

Hi,Is here anybody who successfully managed to sync their outlook contacts with freshdesk with the use of the market place app “Microsoft Outlook Contacts”? At my helpdesk the sync doesn’t start. I’m not even get asked to log in to my 365 account.best regardsSascha

Hello!A following use case example:Contact creates a ticket that comes to Freshdesk and a Contact record is created for the person. After x time period (for example, 6 months) and no other activity (like further tickets have been raised by the Contact), we would be able to hide/encrypt the identifying data from the Contact record (name, email, etc.) for legal reasons. If the contact would send a ticket again after this, the data would be again unhidden. All tickets data from should still be acccessable for reporting purposes, if needed. This would mostly be related to tickets that are “feedbacks” in nature.I understand that deleting a user would mark all upcoming contacts as spam. Is there any way to “just delete”, without marking as spam?Any other ideas on how to potentially approach this sort of a use case?

Hello, I’m having trouble trying to suppress the notification that is sent automatically when a ticket is closed. I’d read in the knowledge base that you can close a ticket without sending the email notification by pressing shift + close inside the ticket details page (here: How to close a ticket without sending an email notification to the customer? : Freshdesk Support) but, I did some testings and the notification is always sent. Does someone have any idea of what can we do to use this feature?Thank you!

I have replied to a customer on a ticket and the comment no longer shows on the ticket.

Olá a todos! Esse é meu primeiro post por aqui mas pretendo ser bastante e apoiar a todos também em suas questões sobre o Freshservice! Estou com uma dúvida e gostaria de saber se alguém aqui já passou por isso e conseguiu encontrar uma solução. Temos um campo de formulário de tickets que vale apenas para incidentes e não sentido para requisições. Tentamos criar uma regra de negócio para ocultar esse campo quando a condição for ‘Ticket > Tipo’ = ‘Requisição de Serviço’ mas não o campo ‘tipo’ não aparece entre as opções de campos de ticket.Curiosamente, no automatizador de fluxo de trabalho, é possível selecionar este campo sem dificuldades: Será que há alguma alternativa para isso? Caso negativo, fica uma boa sugestão para a Freshworks! Abraços a todos! 

Is there no way to sort the list of tickets by Resolve By? Seems like a bit of an obvious use case but I can’t see how to do that. By the way, I am also curious to know if the format of columns is configurable. The Resolve By date is pretty cumbersome and all I really need in the list of tickets is something like “In 12 hours...”. If I need the specific date/time I can open the ticket so the long-form date is “fluff” I don’t want or need.

Heya everyone,as the title describes I’m encountering errors when I try submitting a ticket on both the embedded form and the portal itself. I’ve looked it up and it appears as if this is resolved on a case to case basis.Portal URL: https://3001.freshdesk.comEmbedded form: https://dev.3001.host/contact Hope this can get fixed

Hello Community :)  A new fixed column appeared this lunchtime on the ticket list.Unfortunately, I do not want this column to be fixed. Indeed, it has no added value in my processI want the same features as before this update. Thank you for reading 

I tried to configure it with Captcha and without. Nothing helped. Any solution?URL is: https://wonderkindhelp.freshdesk.com

Documentation department is making user docs with images, formatting and most importantly links. I’ve tried every way I could think of to publish a new article with the same exact format / layout and I’m losing the functionality of the original document. I’m sure I’m missing something.How can I publish the user docs exactly as they would be in the original Word doc?

Does anyone here experience this issue. See attached screenshot,

Hello, i want to implement heads up push notificaiton in Android . like IOS have and some other apps like whatapp etc have when app is closed or backgroup notifcation comes as heads up  

I need a little bit of help.I’m trying to create a simple automation, Ticket Raised ==> Check Condition ==> Trigger webhook to update the same raised ticket.But I can’t make it work with placeholders on the callback URL:If I fix a ticket to the url, i.e.: https://xyz.freshservice.com/api/v2/tickets/74168 it works but when I use a placeholder to use the ticket id from the first step  https://xyz.freshservice.com/api/v2/tickets/{{ticket.id}} then it fails!Not sure why, because no information is available in the log.Do I need to declare a variable form the incoming data and then put that variable in the call back url?Many thanks,   

Hi all, I am new to Freshdesk and I want to use our extisting customer accounts (from the database of our company’s website). I want our customers to be able to create tickets on the freshdesk customer portal via their existing accounts created our company’s website. I can see that there is an import option using csv files, but I need an option to migrate passwords too.In the long run I need a solution where our customers need to register only one account for using our services and a support desk service too.Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks,Gabor

Hi everyoneI’m looking to set up SLAs in Freshdesk for different ticket types and priorities. Can anyone walk me through the process, or share best practices for configuring SLAs based on customer support tiers?Thanks!

When I click on a “View the entire article here” link in an FAQ link in my chat bot, it opens to a blank browser page on an internal url with no style applied. See images below:Link for an articleUnstyled Browser WindowI have three questions.First, does anyone know if it is possible to have links open in a specific URL, such as the Freshdesk Knowledge Base where the bot is hosted? Second, does anyone how to apply a style to the article? Third, if the first/second are not possible, is it possible to disable the link all together?  Thanks for your help.
