Overview

Connect your Freshdesk account to Channels to automatically ingest and analyze support tickets. Once connected, tickets will sync into Channels where they’ll be grouped into themes, sentiment analyzed, and tracked over time, no manual tagging or reading required. This integration helps support, product, and CX teams identify trends, spot recurring issues, and bring high-volume feedback closer to decision-making.
