This is a dotnet standard library providing a thin wrapper around the Freshdesk API as described here: https://developers.freshdesk.com/api.

At present this library requires .NET Standard 2.1 (for IAsyncEnumerable), if I get interest then I'll build a version of the library which doesn't make use of that feature and is therefore available in .NET Standard 2.0 (or possibly lower)

This library provides a single client class which can be created in one of several ways:

1. No existing HttpClient object (suitable for console applications)

using var freshdeskHttpClient = FreshdeskHttpClient.Create("https://mydomain.freshdesk.com", "APIKEY");
var freshdeskClient = FreshdeskClient.Create(freshdeskHttpClient);

NOTE: Disposing the freshdeskClient will dispose the HttpClient object, as per https://aspnetmonsters.com/2016/08/2016-08-27-httpclientwrong/ you need to be careful when disposing HttpClient objects. Broadly speaking, don't make and dispose lots of FreshdeskClient objects using this model.

2. Existing HttpClient object (suitable for asp.net applications or cases where you want more control over the HttpClient)

var freshdeskHttpClient = new FreshdeskHttpClient(myHttpClient);
var freshdeskClient = FreshdeskClient.Create(freshdeskHttpClient);

NOTE: Typically you don't want to dispose the freshdesk client in this case.

3. Using Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection

using FreshdeskApi.Client.Extensions;

serviceCollection.AddFreshdeskApiClient(options => {
  options.FreshdeskDomain = "https://<mydomain>.freshdesk.com";
  options.ApiKey = "APIKEY"; 
})

...

container.GetRequiredService<IFreshdeskClient>();
container.GetRequiredService<IFreshdeskTicketClient>();
container.GetRequiredService<IFreshdesk...Client>();

Get a single ticket, including the company information on the API response

using var freshdeskHttpClient = new FreshdeskHttpClient("https://mydomain.freshdesk.com", "APIKEY");
var freshdeskTicketClient = new FreshdeskTicketClient(freshdeskHttpClient);
var ticket = await freshdeskTicketClient.ViewTicketAsync(
  ticketId: 12345, 
  includes: new TicketIncludes { Company = true }
);

Not all of the Freshdesk API is covered, this table illustrates the current status of coverage by this library. Pull requests to add additional features are welcome.

The library utilises C#11 features and therefore VS2022 or a suitable text editor are required for making changes.

Please feel free to send pull requests or raise Github issues.
