Step 1: Index the Data

Overview

As part of your account creation, we will provide you with a starting structure (including Content setup and a Search frontend and backend config) to get you off the ground that you can later customize. Sync your Yext Content to your Freshdesk account to add your solution articles and automatically keep them up to date in your search experience.

Add Data to Yext

  1. In Yext, navigate to Content and click on the +Add Content button near the top of your screen.
  2. Under the Connectors heading, select Install an App.
  3. You’ll be redirected to the app tab where you’ll see the Freshdesk Solution Article Connector. Click on this tile, and follow the installation flow.

    • You will be prompted to authorize Yext to access your account and update your entities. Click Next.
