Setting up the Freshdesk integration
Delighted’s Freshdesk integration can automatically trigger Delighted surveys (ex. CSAT, NPS, CES) via our Email Platform. Quickly use Freshdesk to define the events you want to trigger new email queries — such as tickets whose status changes to "Resolved" and/or "Closed."
Open the instructions for Freshdesk by clicking "Integrations" followed by the Freshdesk tile seen here.
All the instructions are available from this page.

Yes. Contact the Customer Concierge team for full details (Note: This requires use of Zapier).
Can I change what events trigger a Delighted survey?
Yes. In Step 5 mentioned above, you can set any conditions for your Freshdesk trigger. Once these conditions are met, we'll automatically trigger a Delighted survey.
