Use Case: GitHub Integration with Freshdesk

Problem Statement

  • Many customer support issues reported through Freshdesk may require collaboration with development teams for resolution.
  • Lack of visibility and communication between support and development teams can lead to delays in issue resolution and poor customer experience.
  • Integrating GitHub with Freshdesk can facilitate seamless collaboration and streamline issue tracking and resolution processes.

Solution Overview

  • Integrate GitHub, a popular code repository and issue tracking platform, with Freshdesk to enable support agents to create and track GitHub issues directly from Freshdesk tickets.
  • Utilize Freddy AI Copilot for Developers to simplify the integration process and accelerate app development.

Implementation Steps

  1. Authentication and Setup:

    • Authenticate with the GitHub API and obtain necessary credentials.
    • Configure access permissions and define repository settings for issue tracking.
  2. Integration with Freshdesk:

    • Use Freddy AI Copilot for Developers to access Freshdesk APIs and SDKs for ticket management and conversation handling.
    • Implement custom actions or triggers within Freshdesk to initiate GitHub issue creation.
  3. Creating GitHub Issues from Freshdesk:

    • Integrate GitHub issue creation functionality within Freshdesk ticket interface.
    • Enable agents to create GitHub issues directly from Freshdesk tickets, providing relevant details and context.
  4. Linking Tickets and GitHub Issues:

    • Establish bi-directional links between Freshdesk tickets and corresponding GitHub issues to maintain synchronization.
    • Update ticket status and add comments in Freshdesk based on GitHub issue activities, and vice versa.
  5. Collaboration and Resolution:

    • Facilitate communication and collaboration between support and development teams by providing visibility into GitHub issues within Freshdesk.
    • Enable seamless handoff of issues between support and development teams, with status updates reflected in both platforms.
