Adding Content Fields




Ensuring a good self-service experience includes creating compact, neat forms for your end-users to fill. You would also want to add external documentation links, or contact details to provide more contextual information to your users while filling a form.


With content fields, you can now add a rich-text section to all your incident and service item forms in Freshservice. You can create sections in your forms with content headers, and you can also add relevant links.


You can refer to the article here to learn more about Content Fields.


Content Fields are now supported for tickets and service item forms. You can add these fields to the respective service item forms and ticket forms from the form field settings in the admin panel.



It is not possible to modify or delete the default fields in the field templates.
