Known issues and limitations

  • For triggers "When a ticket is created", "When a ticket assigned to an agent is updated", "When a ticket is updated" description of the ticket is not returned by default in the response. You can specify including it into the trigger response by setting "Include description" parameter to "Yes". However, please note that this is associated with extra costs for your account on Freshdesk side since embedding is used in this case. If you need the description of the ticket, we recommend to use trigger in combination with "Get ticket" action, because this action's response includes the description by default.
  • Creation of ticket type "Service Task" is not currently supported.
