Can I create a ticket in Freshdesk following a response received in Delighted?
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.
How can I change the survey type I'm using to either CSAT or CES?
