Freshchat is a messaging and live chat platform designed to make communication between businesses and customers easier.

With Erathos, you can integrate Freshchat data into Amazon S3 in just a few minutes. Our platform handles the entire data movement process into your data lake and lets you combine that data with other sources. That way, your time goes toward what really creates value — extracting insights and making data-driven decisions.

### Which Freshchat data does Erathos sync with Amazon S3?

The integration automatically syncs the main Freshchat objects:

- **Tickets and support cases** — status, priority, channel, and response time
- **Contacts and customers** — interaction history and profile data
- **Agents** — workload, SLA, and performance metrics
- **Categories and tags** — classifications and case reasons
- **Satisfaction (CSAT)** — ratings, comments, and timestamps
- **SLA and metrics** — resolution time, first response time, and escalations

### Why sync Freshchat with Amazon S3?

With Amazon S3 and Iceberg, your data is stored as Parquet files with time travel and schema evolution support — ready to be queried with Athena, Spark, Trino, or any query engine in your stack. Ideal for low-cost archiving and ML feature stores.

### How it works

Erathos connects to Freshchat through the official API and syncs your data incrementally — only new or updated records are processed on each run. You choose the sync frequency (from every 5 minutes to daily), the objects to sync, and the destination in Amazon S3. The sync uses automatic partitioning and Parquet file optimization. You choose the sync frequency, the objects to sync, and the destination bucket. Each run is logged with full observability: execution time, processed rows, contextual errors, and alerts via Slack or email.
