Merge Freshdesk Accounts with Migration Wizard

The Help Desk Migration service allows you to merge two and more Freshdesk accounts. In this guide we will be talking about the things you need to take care of, setting up your migration.

Preparing for the migration

First off, to connect both Freshdesk accounts, you will need to get the API key for each of them. Follow these steps to obtain your Freshdesk API key.

Then, you need to go to your target Freshdesk account and disable a number of automations. This is necessary so that end-customers don’t receive notifications during the migration. We have a guide with all the steps you need to follow to disable automations in Freshdesk.

Now you can move on to the migration.
