Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Freshdesk, Close CRM, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the Freshdesk and Close CRM integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Freshdesk and Close CRM (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Freshdesk and Close CRM
Freshdesk + Close CRM + Slack: When a new ticket is created in Freshdesk, especially if it's high priority, a lead is created or updated in Close CRM. Subsequently, a Slack message is sent to a designated channel to notify the sales team about the new or updated lead associated with the high-priority ticket.
Close CRM + Freshdesk + Google Sheets: Whenever a new deal is created in Close CRM, the automation finds or creates a corresponding ticket in Freshdesk and then logs the deal information along with the related Freshdesk ticket data into a specified Google Sheet for comprehensive sales reporting.
