Log in to your Freshdesk account and navigate to the section containing the data you wish to export (e.g., tickets, contacts). Use Freshdesk's built-in export feature to download the data as a CSV file. Make sure to choose the appropriate fields and formats needed for your use case.
Open the exported CSV file using a spreadsheet application like Microsoft Excel or Google Sheets. Review the data to ensure it’s complete and clean. You may need to modify the column headers to match the schema you plan to use in Typesense. Save the final version as a CSV file.
If you haven't already set up Typesense, download and install it on your server. Follow the official [Typesense installation guide](https://typesense.org/docs/guide/install-typesense.html) to get it up and running. Ensure the server is accessible from where you plan to run your import script.
Create a schema for your collection in Typesense. This involves defining the fields, their types, and any special indexing parameters. Refer to the [Typesense schema documentation](https://typesense.org/docs/0.23.0/api/collections.html#create-a-collection) for guidance. Make sure the schema aligns with the data structure in your CSV file.
Write a Python script to read the CSV file and import data into Typesense. Use Python's CSV module to parse the CSV file and the `requests` library to send data to your Typesense server. Here’s a basic outline of what the script should do:
- Open and read the CSV file.
- For each row, construct a JSON object that matches your Typesense schema.
- Use the Typesense API to add each record to the collection.
Run your Python script to start importing data from the CSV file into Typesense. Monitor the script’s output for any errors or issues. You may need to tweak the script if there are any mismatches between the CSV data and your Typesense schema.
After the import process completes, use the Typesense API or dashboard to query your collection and verify that the data has been imported correctly. Check a few records to ensure all fields have been populated as expected. If there are discrepancies, consider revising your data preparation and import script as necessary.
By following these steps, you can efficiently move data from Freshdesk to Typesense without relying on third-party solutions.
FAQs
What is ETL?
ETL, an acronym for Extract, Transform, Load, is a vital data integration process. It involves extracting data from diverse sources, transforming it into a usable format, and loading it into a database, data warehouse or data lake. This process enables meaningful data analysis, enhancing business intelligence.
Freshdesk is a service provided by Freshworks for handling the entire spectrum of customer engagement. A customer support software based in the Cloud, Freshdesk provides a scalable solution for managing customer support simply and efficiently.

Overall, Freshdesk's API provides access to a comprehensive set of data that can be used to improve customer support and service management.
What is ELT?
ELT, standing for Extract, Load, Transform, is a modern take on the traditional ETL data integration process. In ELT, data is first extracted from various sources, loaded directly into a data warehouse, and then transformed. This approach enhances data processing speed, analytical flexibility and autonomy.
Difference between ETL and ELT?
ETL and ELT are critical data integration strategies with key differences. ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) transforms data before loading, ideal for structured data. In contrast, ELT (Extract, Load, Transform) loads data before transformation, perfect for processing large, diverse data sets in modern data warehouses. ELT is becoming the new standard as it offers a lot more flexibility and autonomy to data analysts.
