Overview:
Automerge detects and merges incoming tickets if a previous ticket has similar field values. Choose one or more supported fields to act as the basis for detecting duplicates:
Default fields: Status, Priority, Type, Agent, or Group
All Custom Fields (if enabled)
Note: The app has a short delay in detecting incoming tickets. If you expect duplicate tickets to be created rapidly (within a 2-3 minute period), choose the “Ticket Requester” field as the basis.
Optional Features:
Merge timespan: Place a time constraint on duplicate detection. For example, do not merge if the duplicate ticket was raised after 30 minutes.
Sync conversations: Copy conversations from the merged ticket into the merging ticket.
Track tickets: Keep track of the list of merged tickets in a ticket field of your choice. Useful for reports and analytics.
Tag duplicates: Add a tag of your choice to the ticket that was closed and merged.
BE CAREFUL!
It is only useful for new tickets.
Because the merging is really just a note added to the 'parent ticket' you need to have an automation setup to re-open a ticket any time a note is added otherwise you will miss future replies from the requester/customer as they come through as notes from there too.
BUT!
Because on the 'child ticket' (the one that has been copied over) a note is also added, this will also remain open, leaving you with both open tickets in the help desk anyway defeating the purpose.
I tried to add an exception to exclude the specific tag that is added (user created) but Freshdesk doesn't check it fast enough and leaves the ticket open.
Really the system needs to add the merged text as a reply and not as a note to function in a way that won't leave people emailing you and wondering why you stopped replying (note another review saying they lost customers due to that).

Need to add exceptions, like emails from XX@XX.com cannot be merged, and groups.
