Create a new Konnector

Workflows in Konnectify are called Konnectors. You can build one easily.

Let’s take an example to put this together. Say you want to “Send emails via Gmail for new Freshdesk tickets”. Here the “New Ticket created” is the Trigger (which kicks off your workflow) in Freshdesk and the “Send email” is the Action in Gmail.

Step 1: Create a new Freshdesk trigger
  1. On the top right, click on New > New Konnector.
  1. Configure your trigger. Select Freshdesk as the Trigger app. (Please ensure your Freshdesk connection is validated and live) 
  1. Choose the app connection name that you had set up previously. For example, the “Freshdesk connection”
  1. Select the trigger event as "New Ticket created", and click on “Continue”. You will be taken to the data mapping pop-up. 
  1. Konnectify will show you the Data output with existing data or sample data. If you have no data in the Freshdesk account, then please add it to validate the same. 
  2. Once mapped data is available, click on "Continue".
Step 2: Create a new Action
  1. On your Konnector canvas, click on the "Action" section. 
  2. Configure your action. Select Gmail as the Action app. (Please ensure your Gmail connection is validated and live) 
  1. Choose the app connection name that you had set up previously. For example, the “Gmail connection”
  1. Select the action event as "Send Email", and click on “Continue”. You will be taken to the data mapping pop-up.

     5. You can see the mapped data from your Freshdesk records. Check whether the right details have been added in the relevant fields, change it by clicking in the field.

     6. Once you are certain, click on “Save Mapping”. Now your Action is ready.

Step 3: Save your Konnector
  1. Once you have set up your Konnector, give it a name. For example: “Send emails via Gmail for new Freshdesk tickets”. 
  1. Click on the "Save" button in the top right corner, to save your entire Konnector. 
  1. Now you will be taken to the “All Konnectors” page. Here you can see all the Konnectors you have put together. To activate your Konnector, turn on the Status toggle. 
  1. You will get a success notification saying “Konnector Activated”
