- A Freshdesk account (sign up at freshdesk.com)
- Freshdesk API key
- `uvx` installed (`pip install uv` or `brew install uv`)
Configuration
1. Generate your Freshdesk API key from the Freshdesk admin panel
2. Set up your domain and authentication details
Usage with Claude Desktop
1. Install Claude Desktop if you haven't already
2. Add the following configuration to your `claude_desktop_config.json`:
"mcpServers": {
"freshdesk-mcp": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": [
"freshdesk-mcp"
],
"env": {
"FRESHDESK_API_KEY": "",
"FRESHDESK_DOMAIN": ""
}
}
}Important Notes:
- Replace `YOUR_FRESHDESK_API_KEY` with your actual Freshdesk API key
- Replace `YOUR_FRESHDESK_DOMAIN` with your Freshdesk domain (e.g., `yourcompany.freshdesk.com`)
Example Operations
Once configured, you can ask Claude to perform operations like:
- "Create a new ticket with subject 'Payment Issue for customer A101' and description as 'Reaching out for a payment issue in the last month for customer A101', where customer email is a101@acme.com and set priority to high"
- "Update the status of ticket #12345 to 'Resolved'"
