Using Freshdesk

Hi! My company has a portal for Solutions (articles) and another for Support (tickets). I would like to have a place to present videos and other information for new customers to explain them how account configuration works and guide them. Should I create a new portal or a custom section in the theme (we have a custom theme with Breezy)? I’m not sure what is possible.    

Hi,We want to connect some of the emails that are sent from our platform to the Freshdesk threads using `Message-ID` header. The problem is when we put Freshdesk inbox email to reply-to address, the email doesn’t appear in Freshdesk at all. Here is an example of the flowWe send an email to the client from Freshdesk similar to below From: freshdesk-support@company.comTo: client@email.comCc: platform@subdomain.company.comSubject: Some subjectBody: Email messageThen, our platform parses the email and stores the Message-ID headers and send the following email From: platform@subdomain.company.comTo: client@email.comCc: freshdesk-support@company.comReply-To: freshdesk-support@company.comIn-Reply-To: Initial message IDReferences: Initial message IDSubject: Reminder for some subjectBody: Another email messageand this email reaches to client but doesn’t reach to Freshdesk. When we remove “Reply-To” everything works fine.What could be the reason of this issue and how we can solve it?I’d apprecia

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!

Managing a support desk operating in one time zone only, but handling customers from multiple timezones, is a challenge. Let's imagine this:My helpdesk has 1 agent. This agent works in timezone EU. This agent handles both customers: Customer 1. Their contracted SLA with us uses business hours in EU, same as the agent.Customer 2. Their contracted SLA with us uses business hours in US, not the same as the agent. How can I set up Freshdesk to support this - so that:In a ticket queue sorted by "Due by" it is related to the specific customer's business hours, and not the agent group business hours? When I pull report on for example SLA violations, these SLA violations are related to the relative business hours of the customer?Example:Customer 2 reports a ticket that has a 1 hour resolution time. They report the ticket at 4PM (US time). The agent (working in EU time) resolves the ticket at 8AM (EU time), therefore violating the SLA. When SLA follows the agent (group) this ticket’s SLA would

When we want to email a Suggested Solution as Inserted Content, the footer logo's get sized 3x or more when recieved in the email.How can we prevent this?Article:Email:Comparison: Any help would be appreciated.

Hi everyone,  How can I see what users have an active client portal account? Doesn’t appear to be any report.Can’t de-activate and customer from logging in.Can’t allow just a group of users/customer segment to use it (yes know can do to knowledgbase).Anyone found another solution that links with Freshdesk. Thanks in advance. 

Last Friday, I had to submit my dissertation report and I was unable to do it. The bad thing is that I had only Friday to complete it. For sure, this was not an easy case and I was able to complete my whole dissertation so I decided to go for help online. Luckily, I found a website named Dissertation Help AI that prepared my whole dissertation in a few minutes charging me a very minimal fee. I strongly recommend everyone to visit Dissertation Help AI by clicking AI dissertation writing.

I am looking for an option to make contact fields conditional, similar to what you can now do with sections in the ticket fields configuration page:ExampleI have a pet YES (section) type of pet fish cat dog name of pet text field food text field NO (section) empty Final ResultI have a pet : yes type of pet : fish name of pet : nemo food : spaghetti Has anyone worked out a way to do this? We normally have a lot of contact fields, and I worry that without some kind of filtering, it will all be very difficult to parse for our team.

When a user created a ticket, our agent converts into a topic. And we have adapted a behaviour to post the agent reply in the forum topic. However, we cannot find any user reply to the ticket as a comment on the forum topic.Is there a way to convert the user’s ticket reply as the forum comment? Else, the forum topic conversation looks very absurd when you have the user’s ticket topic and description on the top and all the comments are by the agents with no relation on what the user is asking about.

I found this ancient thread: https://support.freshdesk.com/support/discussions/topics/300507/page/3?url_locale= But would also like to have the possibility to show a solution article in multiple folders.We have multiple products with articles which apply to all, and some only to a few. Right now we’d need to greatly overhaul our main page or get a custom folder view but that’s not an option for us.

I’m new to Freshdesk and have been attempting to import our assets from a csv file.The importer seems to run just fine, but always fails on the date formats.I have set the date format to the default YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm, which is also the exact format used in the csv file.Is this a bug, or am I doing something wrong?

Hello all,As the title says, Is there a way to automate adding a to-do list to a ticket. I am looking to attach a list to a ticket based on certain conditions, so as whosoever picks that ticket knows what all steps are required to resolve it. I open to using 3rd party app. The endpoint to create a to-do list is also not available unfortunately. Thanks

Hey there, I’ve been experiencing problems while logging in to FreshDesk via Firefox ( 99.0.1 ). When my agent tries to login it just reloads the login page. No problems occur when logging in with Edge. Here’s what I tried to solve the problem:Deleting Cookies and History (did not help)complete new installation of Firefox (worked for 24 h)Changing the role of the agent (worked for 24 h) Here’s the real mystery: We have a Log-in-again-after-24-hours-policy in FreshDesk. 24 hours after Using the “Change role” way we experienced the same problems again.But changing the role did not help us this time.Resetting the password did not help, either.Of course deleting cookies and history neither.But this time it was not just a reload of the login page but we got this: First this screenAnd when we tried to login with the correct password Is there anyone out there experiencing the same problems or can give me any idea what to try next? Thank you in advance! Ulf

Hi everyone, We are an OTA (Online Travel Agency) and we use FRESHDESK, FRESHCHAT and soon what used to be called FRESHCALLER. At the time this message is being written, we have different channels through which tickets are created. The main ones are Freddy the CHATBOT or via incoming EMAILS.CHABOT : We gather a LOT of data from the clients booking (booking date, traveling date, insurance etc.) and we structurally push this information via the CREATE TICKET verb of the FRESHDESK API at the end of the CHATBOT CONVERSATION. As a result, the custom fields are filled in and we are able to calculate PRIORITIES (via the AUTOMATION RULES) based on these fields.    EMAILS : Here the situation is a bit more difficult. Let me try to summarize what happens : One of our system (outside of FRESHDESK) sends an email to the client, The client answers this email, via email of course, This client answer triggers the creation of a ticket in FRESHDESK unlike the case of the CHATBOT, here we do not have

Hello,We’re using Faraday + s3 links provided by the Freshdesk API when fetching tickets.  We’re able to download ticket attachments but are not sure what format they’re in when they arrive.We need to be able to encode/decode these ticket attachments and save them to our own s3 instance.  These will be PDFs exclusively. Is this something we need to change in the Faraday settings?

I searched for existing queries on this, but I did not find this one… Is it possible to make solutions articles and categories accessible by Group or Agent Role? Meaning I want to categorize my Solutions Portal and I want certain people from my company to be able to access certain documents. I want each user type and/or Group to access only certain categories or articles.Is this possible? I know you can create segments for Customers and Contacts - but can you create segments for agents?   

We use Fresh Desk for providing support to both Customers and colleagues.  Some colleagues are agents, some are collaborators, and some are neither. I’m hoping to make the portal the go-to place for raising tickets and for accessing solution articles, but I don’t think I can prevent customers from accessing a folder that I only want employees to access.When creating a Folder I can make it visible to one of the below, but not a mix (my scenario would be that I want to all Agents (I assume this includes collaborators) and anyone linked to my company (that would be anyone who isn’t an agent) Has anyone found a solution for this?  I’m thinking that the only way would be to set everyone up as a collaborator (assuming that the above “all agents” does include collaborators.  

Hello Freshworks,I use the font Verdana and set the font size to 14, but It looks 9 in the article.Why is it inconsistent?On google docs, the font is still showing correctly.
