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 Redshift in just a few minutes. Our platform handles the entire data movement process into your AWS data warehouse and makes it possible to combine that data with other sources. That means your time is spent on what really creates value — uncovering insights and making data-driven decisions.

### What Freshchat data does Erathos sync with Redshift?

The integration automatically syncs Freshchat's main objects:

- **Tickets and 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
- **Customer satisfaction (CSAT)** — ratings, comments, and timestamps
- **SLA and metrics** — resolution time, first response time, and escalations

### Why sync Freshchat with Redshift?

In Redshift, you connect this data to the AWS ecosystem — QuickSight for dashboards, SageMaker for ML, and S3 as staging. A columnar storage engine optimized for petabyte-scale analytics queries with predictable billing. Ideal for teams already running on AWS.

### How it works

Erathos connects to Freshchat through the official API and syncs your data incrementally — only new or updated records are processed in each run. You choose the sync frequency (from every 5 minutes to daily), the objects to sync, and the destination in Redshift. The sync uses an incremental approach that processes only new or updated records — keeping Redshift costs predictable. You choose the sync frequency, the objects to sync, and the target schema. Every run is logged with full observability: execution time, rows processed, and alerts via Slack or email.
