Freshdesk mirror

Setting up Freshdesk mirror

The Freshdesk API key, the reply automation and its secret header.

Part of Reach

Before you start

Create a dedicated agent for Reach and decide which channels your Freshdesk team should see, so the rollout starts with a manageable volume.

Steps

Each channel installs disabled, so nothing is sent before these steps are done.

Create the Reach agent

Add a dedicated agent and copy its API key.

Store the key

Enter the key as a Basic authorisation value in the Freshdesk API credential.

Secure the webhook

Choose a random secret and store it as the Freshdesk webhook token.

Add the automation

Trigger the reply webhook with the secret header when agents reply on tickets tagged reach.

Start mirroring

Set the helpdesk address, deploy both workflows and test with one SMS conversation.

See it on your own systems.

A demo takes an hour, on your data landscape rather than ours.
