FAQ

Questions about Search Tickets.

What does the Search Tickets action do in Freshdesk?

Searches Freshdesk tickets using a query string (status, priority, agent_id, group_id, created_at, custom fields). Use for SLA dashboards, segment reports, and upsert lookups.

What inputs does Search Tickets require?

Required: Search Query. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.

Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?

Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.

What happens if Freshdesk returns an error?

The run history shows the failed step with its input and the error message Freshdesk returned, so you can fix the input and run the workflow again. Automatic retries are built into HTTP steps only, where you can also set your own retry count and delay.

Does Search Tickets support batch operations?

Run Search Tickets inside a loop to process each item in an array. TinyCommand does not throttle calls for you, so for large arrays add a Delay step if you need to stay within Freshdesk's rate limits.
