Using Freshdesk

Hello!I am using Freshdesk, and have multiple customer companies. I have a portal set up for each company, with a custom url.I’m trying to get Freshdesk to be able to associate company A with company A’s portal and tickets, and company B with company B’s portal and tickets. I’d need the system to send the correct activation URL as well in the activation email. I am struggling to figure out how to do this. Is this possible? Should we only have one portal? If only one portal, how will the portal and system know to only show company A’s forms to company A users (and only show them tickets for company A as well). Thank you!

Hi all, As the subject pretty much describes it, is there a way for me to link to a specific section to another article as opposed to the one I’m currently editing?I know <anchor id> works for the current article one is working, will this work for link sections of other articles? What amendments should I make to the codes? Thank you.

Hi everyone, just wanted to share our new theme for Freshdesk. Click here to preview this theme. The Almond Freshtheme emphasizes simplicity, balance, and alignment. Highlight only the most necessary content and features. It comes with six custom blocks to display key information on the homepage. The colors and style of each component are configured separately – allowing full flexibility to brand your Freshdesk Portal. FeaturesCustomize the header and footer, display your logo, change the background color, and include additional links.Header and Footer - Customize the header and

I have a scheduled workflow that checks if it is the “hold until date” (custom date field), and if it is, moves the ticket from hold or pending to open for review. As part of the workflow action, I would like to also reset the “hold until date” to a blank value. Is there a way to do this from the workflow action, or do I need to use a webhook? One thought I had was to use an expression node to produce a null date, then set the date field to the output of that expression, but I couldn’t get a formula to pass validation.

I know that merge tickets close out the secondary tickets and attaches to the primary ticket but do the users who submitted the secondary tickets still get replies if i reply to the primary ticket? Does associated tickets do the same? Do the associated tickets get the reply if you reply to the primary parent ticket?

I’m hoping there is a way to create a single ticket view that has multiple filter combinations.For instance,We’ve got a number of Agents I’d like to see all tickets that I’m an agent for that aren’t closed or resolved, but also see any tickets regardless of agent if they are in an open state.So (Me and not closed, resolved) and (not me and open)

If there a way to use a widget so the widget is always open and embedded in the middle of the webpageI would like it to be always open as it is on this website https://www.directline.com/car-cover/contact-usI can only place it bottom left/bottom right with a help buttonIf I try and use an iframe, it no longer appears bottom left or right, but the content does not load. 

I spent 15 mins with Support today trying to create Business Hours for New Years day. Since it is in 2025 it’s not possible.Ludicrous!

Goodmorning, All of a sudden the keyboard shortcuts won't work anymore.If you switch it off and on again and refresh the page it works once after that no response.Has anything changed with the keyboard shortcuts?

When a user (not admin) views their ticket tab and tries to export tickets, the set date option no longer displays the fields to specify the date range. 

I am trying to change the name “Knowledge Base” to “Help Center” in our Portal.   From what I’ve read, it looks like the only way to do this is by customizing the code under Admin > Channels > Portals > Customize > Edit theme. We are trying to not spend development resources on this, but I’m having trouble finding a good way to make this change in the code editor.Does anyone have an existing script that we can use to make this change?

I am helping a client with their FreshDesk system that was set up by their previous web agency. The client has a few different support request forms with some custom ticket fields specific to each ticket form. On their 3 main forms, instead of using the default description field, they created a few customer multi-line fields to ask for more specific information, and to accommodate more than one field for customers to use. The problem is this makes it very difficult for the support agents. All of the most important information provided by the customer is in the Properties widget section, which is quite small and difficult to access. I also noticed that the default "Description" multi-line field not only displays the the content in the Ticket body section, but also provides a rich-text editor, vs plain-text for any of the custom multi-line fields. I've reviewed this page for reference: https://support.freshdesk.com/support/solutions/articles/37588-understand-the-ticket-details-v

Hello, I'm having the same issue as other topics mentioned:Outgoing emails are blocked for your account. Please contact our support team at support@freshdesk.com I've contacted support@freshdesk.com but they are taking a bit too long to fix this issue, and we have some tickets open waiting for response. Could someone from here fix this for us? 

The ability to add icons to forum categories to make it consistent with solution categories.I think this would be a good UI change as currently if you have multiple forum categories the icons look like this :Forum stock icon I’d like to add icons like I have with my solution categories: Solution icon This would be a good UI change for the end user and keeps consistency throughout the knowledge base.

We are experiences issues with notifications on Incident cases where a Requester is also an Agent in FreshDesk.The Requester (Agent) updates a case with a public Note or answers an email notification from the case, however the other Agent assigned the case is not consistently receiving an email notification that the case has been updated with an answer. In some cases this works, in others it does not.I can see others have had similiar issues:I am not getting email notifications when a note is added by another agent | Freshworks CommunityPrivate Note Notifications missing for agent | Freshworks Community

Hi Team, I am getting multiple reponses as "Undelivered: Ticket Received" on my freshdesk a account for a client. Pls help to resolve. Thanks,Mansi ​@Daniel Söderlund ​@Nav_in ​@mbutler ​@Joshua.Lawrence ​@nick_marko 

A user added a “Public Note” with a code block that is almost 16,500 rows, and the only way to see notes/emails below it is to manually scroll through the entire 16,500 rows, because Page Down and End keys don’t work, there is no scrollbar to drag, and I see no way to collapse the note. I tried “Split Ticket,” but it didn’t remove this note from the ticket - only copied it to a new ticket. Is there another way to deal with a note like this so that someone can easily see older emails in the ticket? Thank you!

Hi,I cant seem to be able to remove or hide the product field in the ticket form. I’m on the growth plan and i understand products are available in other plans, but I simply want to hide it, using  Can view but results in an error. Which seems like a bug.Anyone find a workaround? Hidefields app doesnt show the field. Thanks 

Does anyone know how to find the real estate in the theme files that controls the default “New Support Ticket” and “Review Tickets” buttons?I can’t seem to find a way to affect those buttons in the HTML files or in the style sheet.

Hi everyone! I would like to ask for some help.I have the task of integrating FreshDesk with Power BI. Here in the forum I found some steps, but I still have doubts and need help to move forward with this demand.I would like to know if there is a step-by-step tutorial for beginners on how to do this integration. From scratch! Because nothing like this has ever been done in my environment. I have already done this configuration: and now I need the steps to proceed with the integration. Can you help me? I would be very grateful! Best regards.

I have created a workflow under Project Settings. However, when I update a task, the assigned group does not receive the email notification that I configured as a custom action during the transition from Open to In Progress.  

I'm currently using Freshdesk as my primary customer support platform and I need to export tickets on a regular basis for reporting purposes. However, manually exporting tickets can be time-consuming and tedious, especially when I need to export large amounts of data.I'm wondering if it's possible to schedule export tickets in Freshdesk, and if so, how can I set up this feature? Are there any third-party tools or integrations that can help me automate this process?Specifically, I'm interested in learning about the different scheduling options available in Freshdesk, such as daily, weekly, or monthly exports. How do I determine the best schedule for my needs and ensure that the exported data is up-to-date and accurate?Additionally, I'm curious about the different export formats supported by Freshdesk, such as CSV, XLS, and PDF. How do I choose the right format for my reporting needs, and what are the benefits and limitations of each format?Moreover, I'm in

I have a Automation on our Freshdesk instance where a ticket is first Assigned to a group, then a Adds a tag and finally sends an Autoreply email with the assigned Agent Name as a Placeholder.  The Group is setup so that Agents get assigned the ticket using the Round robin ticket assignment option.  The email which is getting generated however is not showing the assigned Agent Name, and instead is just blank.  I tried testing the Agent Name field with a separate Automation which runs independently of the Automation mentioned above and then the Agent Name appears. Can anyone provide me with some guidance on how I can make the Agent Name appear in the Autoreply email as the last step of my Automation?
