Using Freshdesk

I’m attempting to automate a workflow and create a ticket from Power Automate to Freshservice. I believe I have all my fields correct, but I’m still getting a 403 forbidden when testing my script. Does anyone have any ideas on what I might be missing?I have successfully created a ticket from Visual Studio using python with the same API key that I’m using in Power Automate, so it should have the correct privileges in our environment. I’m wondering if I’m messing up the syntax somehow.I have attached an image of the HTTP request I’m attempting to perform. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! 

Hi all!  We have a multiple product/multi configuration offering that we support our customers with via Freshdesk. We utilize the Support Portal and a good amount of our customers open tickets via a Ticket Form within the Support Portal. This experience is great for the customer AND provides us details that we need from the form that are important to our supporting of the customer (Environment, product version, Operating System, etc).  We also allow customer to submit tickets via email. These tickets come through as a simple subject/body message, as you’d expect, and missing all the details we need from the Ticket Form that they would otherwise populate if submitting via the Portal.  Has anyone had any success or ideas around making the “email ticket” creation process better for both the customer and us Freshdesk users? Maybe some way of incorporating and embedded object that has the fields to populate in Freshdesk? I am open to custom building something for this, I am just curious wha

I like this theme and am wondering if anyone recognizes it.  I can’t seem to find out what it is called.  

Can anyone provide me C# APi  code to create ticket .i need to know   what is basic need to create freshdesk ticket

Getting 404 error while trying to retrive the skills through APIcurl --location 'https://{subdomain}.freshdesk.com/api/v2/skills' \--header 'Authorization: Basic {BasicToken}' \My account is under trial period and i am the owner then i should have rights to fetch it right? Correct me if i am wrong. 

Good morning,The Technical Support desk can become overwhelmed and unnecessary time is being spent trying to locate and merge cases that end-users “Reply” to, thus creating a new case.How can I stop/prevent a new case from being created by a user who replies to the out-going response of an open ticket?Thank you, - Tom

What would be the script to hide one value from the ticket Type field on the customer portal?E.g. to hide value ‘Complaint’ from the Type field. 

Hello,Wondering if it’s possible to add if/then logic to our Agent Reply Template, so that it shows the Internal Ticket link if the Requester email includes our domain, and External Ticket link if email does not include our domain?Example scenario:“To reply or see the current Status of your ticket, please visit one of our support portal options below:”*TICKET LINK PLACEHOLDER*

Whenever someone replies to our help ticket is reverts to support@dusd.freshdesk.com not our ticket email in our email domain.

When forwarding from a ticket, the reply to that forward comes in as a private note, any replies to to that private note get logged as a private note on the ticket but they are always blank except for the email chain appearing in the note.I’ve been pulling my hair out trying to figure out where this is going wrong and why the reply is always blank in the private note except for the email chain that is being replied to.Any suggestions here on how to fix this would be appreciated.Thanks.

In the below url : f'https://{FRESHDESK_DOMAIN}.freshdesk.com/api/v2/search/tickets?query="created_at:{date1}"&page={i}'I am passing date1 in 'YYYY-MM-DD' format but i am unable to get the result if I pass in 'YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS' format.Also I guess it would be better if you guys increase the page limit in GET requests. It is possible that there are more than 300 tickets created at any date, in that case it won’t be possible to fetch all of them.

When clicking on reply to an email, the contacts in cc are removed which is not helping our agents to work effectively.Also, if another email contact (B) responds in a ticket attributed to one contact (A), clicking on respond will only address the email to A and no longer to B.→ It would be helpful if this could be changed so that clicking on reply is addressing the email to the last sender and if Freshworks can build int the function "Reply to all". Freshworks communicated to us that this would need to be planned as an enhancement, but that unfortunately, there was not a substancial number of requests to prioritize this item which we found surprising as this seems to be a basic functionality.It would be great if we could therefore get support from this community to put emphasis on the prioritization of this item. Thanks a lot in advance!  

When I am adding an article and trying to lay it out/edit, I can only see about 70% of my page horizontally. About 30% of the right side is hidden. This makes editing EXTREMELY difficult! To see what’s off the page, I have to scroll to the page bottom, then use the horizontal scroller to move over to that side, then scroll back up and search for the text I was editing. And then, the left side of the page is hidden. It’s madness! I’m told by customer service that there is no existing workaround, and they recommended that I add a topic here to try to gain traction, then they will consider fixing it. This is not an issue in the build to create a canned response...so I am mystified as to why the article add / build can’t also show the full page you are working on. Help!!! 

Hi allWe are running Fresh Service in MSP mode but would like to stick to just one portal URL for agents and customers.  We want to change to a vanity or custom URL to become support.companyname.com rather than companyname.freshservice.comThis article seems to indicate a different method for MSP mode Setting up a custom domain for your service desk | Freshservice Rebranding : Freshservicebut I also came across this articleUsing a custom support URL and pointing the CNAME : Freshdesk Has anyone done this and can point me to the right method.  We just want every URL our agents or our customers see to be support.companyname.com.  I know I’ll need some kind of cname and possibly a certificate?  thanksAndy

Hi, I’m sure I’m missing something obvious here but the reopen tickets when requester responds workflow isn’t working for.  When I email in from my test account against a closed ticket the agent gets an email but the ticket doesn’t reopen. Can someone tell me what I’m missing :-) ?  

Hi,We have several email addresses in our Freshdesk instance, each email lands in different group and not all agents have permissions to access al groups.The issue is that all agents can create new email and send it as any of the emails registered in FD.Is there any way to block the users from using all addresses?

Every 3 to 4 months, my customers are blocked from creating support tickets. They see this message "sorry, you are restricted from accessing this helpdesk page."Your company reports to me some nonsense about spamming.That is your problem, not my problem. Why do you inconvenience my customers over and over with a repeat of this again and again? I want no more for my customers to see "Sorry, you are restricted from accessing this helpdesk page.' If you had any customer sense, the message would say “We have a temporary issue that we are fixing.  This is not the fault of Seniorleads.  This is our fault at Freshdesk.”This current message makes MY company look bad. My customer does not understand this is a failure at FRESHDESK -- they think it is my incompetent software people as the cause of this message.There are many ways to solve this (all are common sense):remove your spam detection and do not display this message -- I suspect this “spam blocking” is totally unnecessary and is an idea b

I randomly get a 401 error when calling ‘Statuses’, ‘Priorities’, and ‘Types’.This happens in Postman and via my powershell script (v5.1).  The pm API does not work with PSv7.The odd thing is, the 401 failure does not happen every time,  It does not happen on the same project every time. If it fails, I can call it again and it will work.I’ve tried inserting a wait timer of 15 second between api calls - that does not solve it.I never had a problem before 3/20/2024.  The issue started on 3/28/2024.  I made no attempts between 3/21 and 3/27.

Does anyone have any clean ways to get the below functionaility working? I want tickets who have not had an updated in 2 days to get a reminder that the ticket is pending a response and then 2 days after that if it still has not had a response close the ticket. What I have done so far is have a supervisor rule to send the reminder and then add a tag to the ticket.Then have a scheduled event workflow to check for the tag and if the tag exists on a ticket then close it. I cannot figure out how to have this second part check if its been 2 days since the tag was added. I also have created a 3rd automation that if a requester responds to a ticket and it has the tag I added on ti then it removes the tag so it doesn’t get caught in the 2nd workflow I mentioned. This feels messy and like it might backfire. Any ideas to do this better? Thanks,Windows13

Hi there, I really like the option to create a Post Incident Report which is saved with easy access inside the Major Incident ticket. My issue is the PIR fields aren't 100% relevant and I'm manually changing them. I would like to tailor the fields relevant to my organization for each report generated. I’ve searched high and low in the admin center and I'm still at a loss. Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks,Alex

Hi, I would like the name of the agent answering the ticket to not be shown in the customer portal. it's possible? Thank you

Hello Everyone, are there any organisations that have built a complaint handling workflow in Freshdesk that can offer any tips or insights?

I have a React App where I have made a React Component to call the FreshworksWidget.This works great for sending props for API commands like:`FreshworksWidget('close')``FreshworksWidget('open','ticketForm')``FreshworksWidget('open','article', { id: ${article} })` But when I try to call:`FreshworksWidget('prefill','ticketForm', { type: ${request} })` I am receiving the error `VM4910:1 Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected identifier 'XXX'`where ‘XXX’ is the string from ${request} Is there something different in how ‘prefill’ works? All attributes of ‘prefill’ generate this error. e.g. subject, derscription, etc.

Hello, I have “maybe” a problem with this request to configure DKIM.In my account shows that i have 2 domain names to configure:gmail.commycompany.comFor dns records I’m using cloudflare. so it was easy to verify “mycompany.com” - tooks seconds Now, what about google.com (gmail.com)Why should I update on gmail? Our suport helpdesk receives emails to one address only: helpdesk@mycompany.com. this is managed (like all our emails) indeed,  on google workspace, but, the dns records are all managed on cloudflare -  it doesn’t matter who is the registrant of this domain name.  and now, let’s asume that… I HAVE TO CONFIGURE on gmail as well - where I can find this , where should be configured? Thank you,Laurentiu
