Connecting Freshdesk with Nicereply

2. From distribution options choose EMAIL TEMPLATE
3. You’re on the app directory page now, click on Freshdesk icon

Hit Connect and continue to activate your agents in the next step
5. Add your users from Freshdesk to Nicereply by clicking continue. New users will get an automated email with login instructions from us.
When adding new users into your integration later remember that each agent has her/his name, username and email. Especially focus on the Username in this part, it's very important to set it correctly. Nicereply Username must be exactly the same as Freshdesk agent full name (returned by {{ticket.agent.name}} variable).
Don' worry and replace the pre-generated username by the users real name incl. the special characters like space or diacritics:
Adding email template to Freshdesk
Important! Switch off the feature collecting the feedback from your customers provided by Freshdesk. In your Freshdesk account go to Admin -> Customer Satisfaction Settings and disable the customer satisfaction surveys.

Note: You need to have at least 10 tickets created to be able to edit your reply template
8. Now paste NPS preview into your Agent Reply template.
Don´t forget to click Save and Confirm setup completion in your Nicereply account.
