How to connect Freshdesk and Confluence
Create a New Scenario to Connect Freshdesk and Confluence
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.

Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a Freshdesk, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Freshdesk or Confluence will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Freshdesk or Confluence, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the Freshdesk Node
Select the Freshdesk node from the app selection panel on the right.

- Merging: Combine different node branches into one, passing data through it.
- Plug n Play Nodes: Use nodes that don’t require account credentials.
- Ask AI: Use the GPT-powered option to add AI capabilities to any node.
- Wait: Set waiting times, either for intervals or until specific dates.
- Sub-scenarios (Nodules): Create sub-scenarios that are encapsulated in a single node.
- Iteration: Process arrays of data when needed.
- Code: Write custom code or ask our AI assistant to do it for you.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Freshdesk, Confluence, 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 Confluence integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Freshdesk and Confluence (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 Confluence
Freshdesk + Confluence + Slack: When a new ticket is created in Freshdesk, a corresponding page is created in Confluence to document the issue and build a knowledge base. The support team is then notified in Slack about the new ticket and the linked Confluence page.
Confluence + Jira + Freshdesk: When a page is updated in Confluence, indicating a known issue, a bug report is automatically created in Jira, and a linked ticket is created in Freshdesk to track customer impact and resolution. This ensures all teams are aware and aligned on issue management.
