How to publish a Freshworks custom app via CLI?

I’m trying to automate the deployment process of our Freshworks custom app and wondering if there’s a way to publish/deploy the app using the CLI or any automation tools.

Currently, I have to:

  1. Run fdk pack
  2. Go to the developer portal
  3. Manually upload the .zip file
  4. Click through the deployment process

Is there a way to:

  • Use the FDK CLI to publish directly?
  • Use the Freshworks API to handle deployment?
  • Automate this process through CI/CD?

Environment:

  • FDK version: latest
  • Platform: Freshdesk, Freshchat
  • OS: macOS

Any suggestions or examples would be greatly appreciated!

Hi @Tamon_Okamoto,

Currently, it’s not possible to completely automate the deployment process through FDK CLI or any other way. Only through the GUI, the apps can be published on the Freshworks Developer portal.

I will get this feedback passed to our team to consider it. But we cannot commit to any timelines.

You can explore if there are any tools available out there to automate the actions on the Freshworks developer portal GUI. I’m not aware of any to suggest.
