How to configure Freshservice for integration with ONEiO

Introduction

This document shows an example of what needs to be done in Freshservice to make it integration-ready with the endpoint in your ONEiO. Note also, that the number of fields used in integrations might vary. 

Currently only Incident is available out of the box. In case any other entity types are needed or you have questions related to setting up the integration, send a mail to support@oneio.cloud.

Sending messages from ONEiO to Freshservice

ONEiO accesses Freshservice by using the Freshservice API.

Create Integration user to Freshservice

Add integration user to Freshservice. This user is used to be able to create and update the entities that are integrated. Freshservice API uses API tokens instead of the password of the user. You can find the API token from User Settings

Sending messages from Freshservice to ONEiO

Freshservice sends messages to ONEiO with Webhooks. These webhooks are triggered by Workflow Automator.
