Using Freshdesk

I want to add a 2 week duration to a ticket.  I use the following formula in the expression builder and I am not able to get the formula to add 14 days or save as a string value"{{ticket.created_at | date: '%Y-%m-%d'}} - {{ticket.created_at | date: '%Y-%m-%d' | date_add: '+14 days'}}"What am I missing?

Hello,we have a workflow that it’s basically a Create user Workflow for microsoft active directory (on premise). Suddenly yesterday we noticed that it’s not working anymore, we checked the entire workflow and server config, nothing changed, the ports are open, the orch connects to the server etc.... The freshservice logs says that the user has been created but actually it’s not created. If someone had same problem let me know if there is any solution to this.It’s not something really complicated, it worked with no problems for months.

HelloI am trying to set up the Intune App and keep getting invalid params.  I followed the instructions, to no avail.  Has anyone had this issue and if so how were you able to correct it?

Hello, I have 2 different portals in my organization, one is internal and another external.Today I can see that if someone uses the URL of the internal portal, they can access it and create tickets because the Everyone is set to create tickets in the portal options. Here is the current configuration: Is it possible to make the internal portal only accessible by internal people? 

I am configuring a Freshdesk demo account which is needed for a demo tomorrow. I encountered this: “Outgoing emails are blocked for your account. Please contact our support team at support@freshdesk.com” first thing in the morning.  Had a chat with customer specialist and open a ticket myself, but the problem still persisted. We have lost more than half a day of preparation already. What are your experiences? How long did it take Freshworks to resolve your problems when you faced similar problem? Shall I forget about what I have prepared so far and create another trial and redo everything? I have around 22 hours before the demo. 

Hi, Support should be able to switch a public note to private and vice-versa. Thanks, Bilel

Hey guys. All good?I would like to understand how you manage your predefined asnwers, the templates?Here in our team, we find it difficult to identify when people use or dont using it, because everyone has their answers registered on their machines, offline. However, this causes us problems with tone of voice, standardization of processes, etc. And within Fresh we were unable to have a report on the use of these responses, nor a search tool to manage them.If anyone has any tips it would be great! :D

Is this possible? Let’s say I have a client that creates a ticket by email. In this instance, it comes in from testco.com with subject of Server not accessible. Can there by a processing rule that could then append the subject of the email with the company name and change it to: Testco Server not accessible for the ticket? 

We have occasional issues where a ticket created via email, is missing text.   Weirdly enough, the only time it happens, is when the text is copied/pasted from the McMaster-Carr Website.  ============For example, here is the text in the service account’s email.  Google Business Workspace or whatever Google is calling their business email these days.  This is the same text in the Freshdesk ticket: ===========================I opened up a support ticket, but the response was to have the original website change their HTML.  Unfortunately not an option.Has anyone else seen this or have a workaround?

We want to simplify the Portal for certain users and limit the service items visible to them.  We don’t want to restrict those items for other groups, so I cannot say “only visible to” option because it needs to be visible to everyone, but for this group limit only seeing a subset of the service catalog?  Any ideas? For example, for our walk-up Radio shop, we want the service catalog for those users logged in to only show Radio items.  

Hi everyone, Have noticed the last few days that when a customer replies to a ticket the entire ticket thread is copied in on their reply making the ticket text difficult to navigate and find replies easily.It only seems to have begun this behaviour the last few days and we’ve not made any changes to settings.Anyone else getting this behaviour? It’s quite annoying for sure!ThanksRob

Hello, If a ticket is merged together the secondary ticket will get closed. So the requester gets an email saying it is closed. I want to make a workflow whereby if the requesters ticket gets merged, that they recieve an email saying that the ticked is merged. This is what i got from this forum:I’m new to freshservice so i hope this is possible

If I am using APIs to create and update users (contacts) on freshdesk, I have to call separate APIs to update the user and activate the user (through invitation link). Is there a way to add/update password of a user through API ?

If anyone is wondering why their pages rank poorly on FreshDesk, one of the potential solutions is to customise your portal (Admin → Team → Portals → Customise Portal →  Layout & Pages → Portal Layout → Head) and setup the correct tags for inclusion.The FreshDesk “Head” defaults are poor / obsolete and will cause your pages to rank and spider poorly. If you edit the Head you will see the following default:<title>{{ meta.title }}</title>{{ meta | default_meta }}Your mileage may vary but I found you can replace the above with the following, using dynamic placeholders, to provide better page SEO. Remember to keep your page title to between 30 and 60 characters, and your page description between 50 and 160 characters. I hope this helps someone else out there struggling with FreshDesk’s poor SEO capabilities.<!-- Replace "Your Site" with your actual site name --><!-- Replace "Your Company" with your actual company name --><title>{{ meta.title }}</title&g

Ok, so when styling up a portal in FreshDesk the CSS page under customization appears to be VERY limited.Single and double quotes are escaped into HTML safe variants @ symbols are simply not allowedGiven that these issues mean that ::after/::before pseudo classes can not have content added, and that media queries are also impossible, what gives? I understand that you do this to prevent DB injection by removing suspect characters, but it REALLY hamstrings the product.So, we’re forced now to have an external stylesheet to achieve what should be a simple matter.The product forces companies to do work around after work around after work around when it comes to both branding and forms.You guys really need to sort this out.Unless, of course, I’m missing something obvious? 

As a manager, I’d like to check out some of my team’s recently closed tickets every once and while--- confirm they handled them the way I advised or just can my eye over a list of items closed in a given week. So, I want to filter some of my list views based on Closed Date. Does anyone know of a way to do this?I opened an idea to allow filtering lists on ANY standard date field. Please upvote: https://community.freshworks.com/ideas/filter-lists-on-any-standard-date-field-30590 

Hi, we have 2 accounts with Freshworks, one Freshservice Enterprise and one Freshdesk free tier.  I have setup SSO in both and the authentication works fine.  On the FreshService instance sign-on page I get a button “Sign in with SSO”.  I don’t get the “Sign in with SSO” on the Freshdesk instance.  How can I make sure the Sign in with SSO button is available on the Freshdesk portal log on page?freshdesk logon page 

Tickets are not getting reopened while the customer responds to a closed ticket and you are unable to keep track of the same.

We are trying to make an API hit from Freshdesk to 3rd party application which requires oAuth access to be passed in body params and client id client secret will be passed in authorisation headers. Is there any way to send the oAuth access token in the body params 

When trying to create an Issue from a new ticket using the 'Create a new issue' link in the Jira tab on a Freshdesk ticket. I see a list of users from Jira. But I'm unable to select any.The only option that will allow to be selected is 'unassigned'. I've tried with multiple projects in Jira and they all behave the same. I can't select any users from the listOnly Unassigned is selectableWhen selecting any other users it just reverts to -- and I'm unable to create ticket
