psFreshservice

Freshservice Powershell Module.

Table of Contents

:Getting Started:

If you use SSO (single sign-on), you HAVE TO use the API Key method to connect!!!

This module offers two ways to connect to Freshservice (Username and Password | Freshservice API Key). In order to get your API Key you'll need to log into your account, go to 'Profile Settings' and your API Key will be on the right hand side.

How to get Freshservice API Key

:Demo:

High level module demo

:Functions:

Connecting

Connect-Freshservice -ApiKey <#-or-#> -Username -Password <#-and-#> -Domain
  • Within the -Domain parameter, you DO NOT have to supply the entire domain name!!!
    • If your domain is google.com then you only need to use google for this parameter!!!
Set-RequiredSecurityProtocol
  • This command is invoked automatically during module import you do not have to manually run this command yourself!
  • This command is ran during module import
    • it is needed to talk to the Freshservice API - it sets the appropriate encryption types for the session and MUST BE RAN EACH TIME YOU IMPORT THE MODULE!!

Core

New-FreshserviceApiRequest -ApiUrlQuery <#-or-#> -ApiUrlFull <#-and-#> -RequestMethod -ContentType <#-or-#> -AsWebRequest
  • New-FreshserviceApiRequest is the 'core' function that the majority of other functions 'wrap' around, specifically the ones that interact with the API via REST
  • This command itself is nothing more than a wrapper for Invoke-RestMethod - although, supplying the switch AsWebRequest will use Invoke-WebRequest instead of Invoke-RestMethod (while Invoke-WebRequest and Invoke-RestMethod do the same thing, the data they return is different - Invoke-WebRequest lets you parse headers, etc..)
    • The Connect-Freshservice command must be ran before you are able to use New-FreshserviceApiRequest
    • -ApiUrlQuery means you only have to supply everything after the root domain/host
      • ex: (/api/v2/agents)
    • -ApiUrlFull means you have to supply the full URL
      • ex: (https://domain.freshservice.com/api/v2/agents)
    • You can use New-FreshserviceApiRequest on its own (as long as you use -ApiUrlFull)
ConvertTo-Base64 -StringToEncode
ConvertFrom-Base64 -EncodedString
Confirm-StringIsUri -String

Agents

Get-FreshserviceAgent -Id <#-or-#> -State <#-(fulltime|occasional)-#> <#-or-#> -Email <#-or-#> -MobilePhone <#-or-#> -WorkPhone
  • If parameters are not used, all Agents are returned

Tickets

Get-FreshserviceTicket -TicketId <#-or-#> -RequesterEmail <#-or-#> -TicketFilter <#-(new_and_my_open|monitored_by|spam|deleted)-#>
  • If parameters are not used, all 1000 Tickets are returned
  • DEFAULT MAX RETURN FOR TICKETS IS 1000 TICKETS; EACH TIME YOU RUN THIS COMMAND
    • The API is rate limited by Freshservice
Read-FreshserviceTicketQueue -Tickets <#-and/or-#> -MaxReturn <#-(max size is 1000)-#>
  • Used inside of Get-FreshserviceTicket to iterate through each page of tickets
    • This is because the Freshservice API will only return 100 tickets per page at most
New-FreshserviceTicket
