Any anyone got the Nextgen interface to work on port 443?
We have our tomcat running on port 80 and 443. I can access the Nextgen interface but when I go to login, it redirects my web browser to port 8443. As my helpdesk is not on 8443, I am taken to a 404 error. Has anyone seen this? The URL also has my username and password in plain text.
New Interface??
Hey everyone. We are a long time user of Web Help Desk and wanted to get a look at Nextgen before deploying it so I stood up another server and was going to look it there. I installed it, but it looks the same. Did I miss something? I thought this would have the new interface on it. Do I have to enable it? Just wondering…
Exposing Help Desk to the Internet
Does anyone here expose their helpdesk to the internet? I am thinking of doing this so our maintenance team and our technicians are able to access the help desk while they are in the field. I just wanted to see what everyone was doing with this and if anyone is even allowing access to the helpdesk this way. I have seen a…
How to get the latest ticket created by a user using the Ticket endpoint
I notice the Ticket endpoint sorts results based on 'lastUpdated' field automatically, but I couldn't find the right parameter to add it to the query. None of the following worked: &sort=-reportDateUtc &defaultSort=-reportDateUtc &params[sort]=-reportDateUtc First time using this Web Help Desk product and its REST API is…

I see on today's update that the NextGen framework is available. I would like to see more documentation on it, but my Google-fu is failing me. We are using SAML, so I can't upgrade to it just yet. Any idea on a timeframe for that availability?
API permission error 403
I'm trying to migrate data from WHD using an online migration tool via usrname & AIP key method, but keeping getting permission error 403. I made the WHD URL publicly accessible via specific IPs and ensure I use WHD Admin account for the API but I still get 403 error. Any suggestions?
Task Elements
Good Afternoon, We have a task with 9 elements. We would like to cc someone other than the tech when task 7 is run. So the tech receives a ticket but a client will also receive a copy of that particular ticket/task. Is that possible? Thanks in advance for the feedback.
Adding Ticket content to an email message
Created an Action Rule under the Processes, then went into Action tab and Send E-Mail however do not see an option to add the content of the ticket into an email message. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
2 different installer versions???
Why are there 2 different versions of very different size for the new installer? Did I miss something? Last thing I want to do is re-run an entire upgrade process. Which is the correct installer?
