Important Note
Merge will create automated ticketing rules in your Freshdesk account if the Merge customer you are connecting through has third-party webhooks enabled to allow for real-time data updates.
Please reach out to the customer you are connecting to if you notice any unintended rules affecting your tickets in Freshdesk.
