Contact Center number in Freshchat SMS

Several months ago I was told by support that you will eventually be able to use your Contact Center number in Freshchat over SMS. Is there any info on when that will be available? SMS was an important part of my workflow before switching to Omnichannel and I would like to start using it again.

how do I? Same phone number with FreshChat and FreshCaller?

Because it’s 2025, our customers and hundreds of millions of other businesses’ customers now expect to text and call a business at their same phone number. How do we configure Freshchat SMS and Freshcaller to share one phone number? It’s just not reasonable in modern age to tell one of our customers to text us at a different phone number than the phone number they used to call us Thank you,

Anyone else facing issues with messages not appearing in Freshchat web-widget?

Hey there, fellow Freshchat users!I hope everyone is doing well. I wanted to reach out to see if any of you have come across a peculiar issue while using Freshchat's web-chat widget. We've been facing a problem where our agent's messages are not visible to customers. It's like our responses are disappearing into thin air!Here's what happens: Our agent types out a reply, but the customer responds with things like, "I can't see any writing" or "Hello, anyone there?". It's frustrating because it seems that the customers aren't receiving our messages at all.We reached out to the Freshchat support team, and they told us that no other users have reported this issue. But we're really curious to know if any of you have experienced something similar. Are we alone in this? 😿

How did SuprDaily uses Freshchat's WhatsApp solution to deliver daily essentials to 70,000 customers

What's SuprDaily?SuprDaily is a subscription-based delivery company for milk, daily essentials like bread and eggs, and groceries. It helps people to manage their grocery needs easily from their smartphones. Founded in 2015, the brand has grown rapidly to serve thousands of users. SuprDaily has since been acquired by Swiggy (India’s largest food delivery service provider) and currently operates in 6 cities. What issues did they face? As the user base and demand for SuprDaily’s service grew 10x from a modest 5000 - 7000 deliveries daily, it became more and more impractical to support customers without a robust system in place. Customers could reach out to support via WhatsApp and a helpline number.How did Freshchat and bots solve these issues for them?SuprDaily’s support team has rapidly scaled from using a single agent WhatsApp interface to a 50+ agent team on Freshchat, managing a major chunk of the overall support volume across channels.Today, in lockdown, one of the ways that Supr m

Editing Custom CSS for Web Chat

Hey everyone, hope everyone in the community is well!I’m a new customer to Freshworks, FreshDesk and FreshChat so I’m learning my around each of the systems stage-by-stage.I do have a question in regards to the Custom CSS Editor, within the Web Chat settings (Within the Freshchat product)I have already inspected various classes, and applied those styles in to the CSS Editor, and used the !important flag as a way to overrule specific styles, but I am a little confused, to whether the preview of the chat embed (I’m referring to the preview panel of the chat window) should be updating in real-time as I’m applying my Custom CSS updates?As it seems no matter which custom styles I am implementing, nothing seems to be updating in terms of the style of the chat within the preview panel.Am I missing a trick somewhere? Ideally, I’m wanting to change the ‘div.body’ background colour through targeting that specific class.Does anyone have any pointers on how to achieve this? I have searched around

Issue with Chatbot Self-Service Widget - Help with Configuring CSP?

Hi everyone,I’ve been working with the Freshworks chatbot self-service widget on my site, and I’ve encountered a bit of a roadblock regarding Content Security Policy (CSP) configuration.To provide some context: we recently decided to move from a third-party service to Freshworks’ native chatbot platform. However, after setting up the widget, users have reported that the chatbot isn't loading properly on certain pages, especially when accessed through specific networks. After some investigation, I suspect this might be due to CSP settings that need to be adjusted.I’m looking for some guidance on how to ensure that the required URLs are properly allowlisted. If anyone has dealt with this issue or has detailed steps on checking and updating CSP configurations for the widget, I would greatly appreciate your input.Here’s what I’ve tried so far:Checking if CSP is enabled through the console. Attempted adding the suggested URLs to our policy, but the issue persists.Additionally, here’s a link

Chat popup on page load

HiWe have a Freshchat widget on our website that we’re trying to direct customers to. We’ve investigated having the chat widget open automatically on page load or after a delay, using the instructions found here; however, we’ve found that on mobile phones the opened chat widget is too big and covers the entire screen, confusing customers.I have two questions on this function:Is it possible to modify the JS code to only open the full widget if the user is on desktop? Is it possible to display a smaller message encouraging users to open the widget instead of the full widget? e.g. like this:
