Deploy Fin

Our help center content often tells customers to contact support directly. However, when customers are writing in, Fin is pulling in that recommendation even though they are already in contact with Support. It is a bit redundant since they are already contacting support. Any recommendations on how to handle this? Can we block Fin from stating that at all? 

Dear Team, I have a specific question related to Fin troubleshooting capabilities.  Is there a reliable/recommended way to make Fin ask follow-up questions to user queries? For example, there might be a Help Center article for login issues that might involve several sequential steps (some of them are not always relevant), or we might have 2 different versions of a similar product, and the correct answer might depend on the version of it the user is using (let’s say instructions 1 are for a red version, instructions 2 are for a blue version). How can we make Fin ask a relevant question (is it option 1 or 2, have you already tried this or that) without providing general answers that might be too wordy? Is there a way to obtain these results directly with Fin and content optimization without complicated workflow setups? Thank you! 

I have Starter license. Every time I try to activate FIN it forces me to hire customised answers. Please can someone help me to know how i can activate fin by skipping this step.Thanks in advance. Best regards. Teresa

Hi EveryoneI am evaluating Intercom for our college. I am trying to set up the FIN ChatBot by giving it the webpage of our college, which has extensive information (1487 results). However, when I test the ChatBot using the test feature on the app.intercom.com portal, it cannot answer a single question - even when I ask highly tailored questions based on our website content.Anyway ideas what I am doing wrong?We are looking for a ChatBot that can understand our website content, then help users to find what they are looking for - perhaps this is not the “sweet spot” of Intercom?I’d be grateful for any help or advice!Cheers, Ken

Hello,my team and I are trying to setup a workflow for our users to talk to Fin to answer questions. We are attempting to use the “Customer opens a new conversation in the Messenger” workflow to start the conversation with Fin. However, it appears that Fin can not be placed in step “A. Welcome”. You have to click “I have a question” which points to step “B. Path” where Fin is then initialized and can take over from there.In contrast, when using a workflow that starts with “Customer clicks a website element” we are able to place Fin in to Step A as desired.Is it possible to have Fin initialized in Step A for the “customer opens a new conversation in the messenger” workflow? If not, I would love some more details about why this is a limitation. Thank you!

Hi there! Is there a way to change the some of the automated responses from FIN? Currently my responses look like this   I want to change the last two messages. Is that possible?

Hi,On proactive web chat message, I have choose “let Fin respond” but it only says time to be responded. Is it possible to answer to customer? is it possible to ask for email when nobody answer? and “continue on WhatsApp”?Thanks

Is there a way that I can link Fin to our Intercom macros?  We have a ton of great information in the macros that would be a huge help for personalizing Fin for our product and the common questions we get from our clients.

I’m seeing this error when I try to set live a new workflow. Our front end SDK’s are all updated. The new workflow includes the new “Let customer type” option 

HiWe’d like to stop using our staff on intercom chat, and use Fin to resolve as many customer questions as possible, and if not, we’d like our service desk (outside of intercom) to resolve the customer question from then on.Is there a way to automate sending the conversation via email to our service desk if Fin has not resolved the customer’s question?Thanks

I have a specific hand over process for Fin to complete when a customer wishes to speak to a member of the team. Part of this process involves collecting information about the customer through some basic questions.I have had multiple instances where customers get to this step and then stop sending responses. Fin then closes these conversations, and I never end up seeing them.In an ideal world, when a customer stops responding during a hand over, I would like Fin to automatically assign the conversation to a team member. If this is not possible, I at least want to prevent the conversation from being closed.Any advice?

If we wanted to only use Fin overnight and on weekends, is that possible? So that we can offer it as a fallback out of hours, while we get it working seamlessly, and during the day people will always get straight through to the CS team?
