(422) Unprocessable Entity Error
Usually, this occurs when trying to create a contact in Freshdesk that already exists there. Sending along brand new contact information should ensure this error doesn't happen moving forward.
My zap is only triggering once an hour
If this is happening, it's likely that you've hit Freshdesk's API limit of 1000 API calls: https://freshdesk.com/api#ratelimit and that limit resets once an hour. Unfortunately, there isn't anything that can be done to get around this limit.
My updated ticket zap isn't triggering
The Updated Ticket trigger will only trigger if you update the status, priority, or type of ticket. Adding tags and such does not trigger the zap. Updating closed tickets also does not trigger the zap.
Authentication Errors
FreshDesk requires the account that you connect to Zapier to be of an "Admin" level status. Non-admins cannot use FreshDesk's API fully, and doing so will return different kinds of errors if your account is not an Admin.
User role can be determined by going to http://customerdomain.freshdesk.com/agents, then clicking on agent name, then on subsequent screen, the Edit Agent Button.
