DEPRECATED: This gem only works with v1 of Freshdesk's API, which is no longer current.

freshdesk-api

A Ruby API client that interfaces with freshdesk.com web service. This client supports regular CRUD operation

Freshdesk's API docs are here http://freshdesk.com/api/

As of now, it supports the following:

• tickets
• users
• forums
• solutions
• companies

Usage Example

client = Freshdesk.new("http://companyname.freshdesk.com/", "user@domain.com", "password")  
# note trailing slash in domain is required

client = Freshdesk.new("http://companyname.freshdesk.com/", "api key")
# simply leave out the password when specifiying the api key


response = client.get_users  
client.get_users 123  
client.post_users(:name => "test", :email => "test@143124test.com", :customer => "name")  
client.put_users(:id =>123, :name => "test", :email => "test@143124test.com", :customer => "name")  
client.delete_tickets 123  

# example of working with users
