Frequently Asked Questions about Freshdesk + Google Forms integrations

New to automation with Zapier? You're not alone. Here are some answers to common questions about how Zapier works with Freshdesk and Google Forms

How can we integrate Freshdesk with Google Forms using triggers and actions?

You can connect Freshdesk with Google Forms by setting up a trigger in Google Forms that initiates an action in Freshdesk. For example, when a new form response is submitted, you can create a ticket in Freshdesk automatically.

What kind of triggers from Google Forms can be used to create actions in Freshdesk?

Triggers such as 'New Response' in Google Forms can initiate actions like creating or updating tickets in Freshdesk. This helps streamline your support process.

Can responses from multiple Google Forms be integrated into a single Freshdesk account?

Yes, responses from different Google Forms can be set up as triggers to perform actions within the same Freshdesk account. Each form response can trigger specific actions, like ticket creation, based on your configuration.

Are there any specific fields required for integrating Google Forms with Freshdesk?

While there are no mandatory fields required for integration, it's important to map fields properly between the two platforms. For instance, ensure the fields needed for ticket creation in Freshdesk are captured accurately from the form submissions.

Is it possible to update an existing ticket in Freshdesk through a response submitted via Google Form?

Yes, you can set up triggers that update an existing ticket instead of creating a new one when a relevant Google Form is submitted. You would need to use form data such as ticket ID for accurate mapping to existing tickets.

Can we automate notifications or alerts based on forms submitted through Google Forms integrated with Freshdesk?

Definitely. Once you integrate your forms with Freshdesk, you can set up actions that automatically send notifications or alerts using predefined rules whenever a response is received.

How do we handle errors during integration between Freshdesk and Google Forms?

When errors occur during the integration process, check the logs for detailed error messages and ensure that all field mappings are correct between forms and tickets. Reconfirm any conditional rules set up within your workflow to troubleshoot effectively.
