Do you think it would be possible to Extend the scale for the customer satisfaction (from 1 to 10).1 to 10 is now a standard and most of the SAAS companies are using it.

Hi there,I need help configuring the ticket system for a workflow I've built.My goal:I have a workflow bot for clients and sellers. I want conversations where users pass through a specific "Seller's questions" path to be automatically converted into tickets with the "Seller" type and a specific tag.What I've already set up: Created a "Seller" ticket type and a corresponding tag. Created a "when a ticket is created" workflow with a condition that triggers for any ticket with the "Seller" tag or ticket type. But...The automation isn't working. Tickets are only created if I manually convert these chats. Could you help me identify what's missing in my setup so it works automatically as intended?

Hello, We need to calculate total duration for which conversations are snoozed for analytical purposes. I went through the community forum and found this In the above topic, it’s mentioned that their isn't a direct method provided for generating a report specifically for snooze time in conversations.Although we have found out that we can derive snooze durations and it would be helpful if we can get a review from the Intercom community over this method, or if we can get some other attributes or methods (provided by the Intercom API) through which we can calculate snooze durations, this would be extremely useful for us.We are aiming to derive the snooze duration based on the following:Calculate snooze time by tracking conversation state transitions through conversation parts, which provide the most granular state information for each conversation. Each conversation_part has a status field that captures the conversation state (open, closed, or snoozed) and a created_at field which tracks

Can I search Inbox by users phone number?

Hi,In our application, we initialize Intercom on page load. When user logs in, we shutdown the existing Intercom instance and boot again with user details. The messenger is loaded through a custom launcher. When the messenger show() is triggered, it seems the messenger doesn't even begin to load for quite some time as seen from the Network tab in dev tools. This makes it looks like as if the customer support chat is not working in our application, which is frustrating. Could you please help us debug this issue? We use the @intercom/messenger-js-sdk package. 

We have setup intercom as our helpdesk for our Shopify ecommerce business. Customers who are logged in to their shopify account are getting excellent replies from FIN, with order information etc. But when a customer chats to FIN and they are not logged in, they only get generic knowledge center information. What is the best workflow / solution to make sure Visitors log into shopify before chatting?Can FIN prompt the user to log in at the start of a visitor chat? Can FIN authenticate the user just with the email / order number? We’re also looking for someone to review our whole setup and offer some improvements, please get in touch if you can help us out. Thanks! Scott 

Hey everyone 👋 We’ve been reworking our Knowledge Base structure as our platform has expanded, and I’d love to hear how others have approached this. We’ve recently rolled out several new core products, so it made sense to create a category (mini hub) for each one.However, we also have tools that span all products - for example, an email tool that’s used across multiple product types. My current idea is to move these shared tools into a separate category like “Platform Tools and Features.” The tricky part is that while the email tool touches most of the products, its functionality has small nuances depending on the product. I’m torn between: Keeping all email content centralised in one place nested under a tools section e.g. having an email section (simpler to maintain, easier to find)vs. Referencing it within each product section for context (but risking duplication and confusion - for example, users searching for email help might find multiple references across different categories

Has anyone tried implementing context-sensitive help in your product like how Intercom uses its help articles and customizes the Learn button drop-down?

I have discoverd instances in conversation_parts where the conversation_part.status is in a snooze state even if the part_type is a comment type. How is this possible, because according to this article (https://www.intercom.com/help/en/articles/6564538-snooze-a-conversation) “If you send a reply message in a 'snoozed' conversation that's assigned to you, it will not automatically 'unsnooze'/reopen the conversation.”“If someone else sends a reply, adds a note, or updates an attribute in a 'snoozed' conversation assigned to you, it will be automatically 'unsnoozed'/reopened.” So How come a conversation remain in an snoozed state even after there is a comment from either admin or customer?A comment part type is defined as: Standard reply from customer or admin to a conversation (defined at: https://developers.intercom.com/docs/references/1.4/rest-api/conversations/conversation-part-model#conversation-part-types)  These are the part-types appearing with snoozed state1    comment2    conver

I want to suggest a 2 features to articles: 1. A checkbox that allow us to  exclude a single page for indexing. Ex: pages with contact information. Those pages should be in help center and also be available for FIN, but not for bots. With a single disallow to be added in the robots.txt is enough.2. If you type an email or a URL, and you don't link it, when you save it's linked automatically and if you want these information to be excluded for crawlers you can't.   

Hi all! Support team leaders, I’d love to know -What metric from reporting in Intercom do you use to inform a goal for your team monthly?Number of tickets closed? Number of tickets assigned? Number of replies sent? Or something else? I’m trying to zone in on how many tickets my support team members are handling individually each week.  Thanks!

Is it possible to configure the Switch from Messenger to WhatsApp functionality so that, depending on the brand the customer is interacting with, they are offered a different WhatsApp number? Or is this something that might be available in the future? 

Hi Intercom Community,I’m trying to fine-tune how FIN handles unresolved issues. Specifically:Is there a way to set a limit on how many times FIN tries to resolve a customer’s question before escalating? Can FIN automatically hand off to a human agent after those attempts?I want to make sure customers aren’t stuck in a loop if FIN can’t help. Ideally, it would try a few times, then gracefully pass the conversation to a person.Has anyone set this up successfully? Would love to hear how you approached it—or if there’s a built-in way to do this.Thanks in advance!—Vanessa

Hi!I have a series with two paths that take users to different checklists depending on their experience level. I wanted to review each checklist’s performance to see if our recent changes improved completion rates.If I check the Series Performance Summary Report (checklists section), I get:Total sent (The total number of checklists that have been sent and displayed to users within this Series.): 61,734 Completion rate (The percentage of checklists sent within this Series where the recipient completed the whole checklist.): 23.5% from previous 55 days (14,528 unique completions)If I check the checklist individually, I get these numbers: Checklist 1: Total sent: 16,021 Completion rate: 4.93% Checklist 2: Total sent: 4,437 Completion rate: 2.84% The amount of checklists sent are very different (from 61k to 20k if I add the individual numbers), and the individual percentages of completion are low and become way higher if considering both.Which data should I rely on to measure the impact

Hi, I am stuck on a workflow automation which attempts to apply a tag to a person, rather than the specific conversation.  Context:  We have some leads and customers who are requesting info for a specific student discount we offer. When these requests arrive, we set the ticket type to discount request. After this type has been set,  I want to automatically apply a tag to the person, not the conversation. I am easily able to tag the conversation, but tagging the person doesn’t work.    The goal is to tag the person, and then we can email this group as a cohort in future for new offers.  This is the automation, and it doesn’t work atm:  Any ideas what the blocker is?  Or how I should be doing this instead of above? Thanks very much for any help! Matt 

I would like my outgoing emails inside the active correspondence to be sent not from the personal intercom addresses for each agent or personal email address, but from one general email address. For example, inside the conversation, there are 3 agents participating. A, B and C. I would like all the messages to be sent not from 3 different addresses but from one company address. Like support@mail.com . On my workspace end I should still be able to distinguish the messages that were sent by agents A, B, C. Is it possible?

Hey everyone 👋We’re currently using Fin as the first line of support, handling all incoming customer conversations.It works great — once a human agent joins the conversation, Fin automatically stops responding, which makes perfect sense in most cases.However, there are many situations where the agent realizes that Fin could actually continue handling the customer effectively after their short intervention.It would be super helpful if agents could reactivate Fin in a conversation — ideally with a simple button or command — so Fin can pick up right where it left off.Is there a way to do this today? If not, we’d love to see this added as a future feature 🙏Thanks!Tamir

Hi all, we’re pretty new to Fin AI & chatbot setup in general, so we might be missing something, however, I’m seeing massive differences in how Fin responds to questions in the Preview environment versus the actual live environment on our website.As an example – one of our users asked a fairly basic question about our service, and Fin AI responded with “Sorry, I couldn’t find information related to your question.” However, when I pasted the same question into the Fin AI preview (logged in as an organizational user within the Intercom admin dashboard), it returned a comprehensive response and fully answered the user’s question.Currently, we have Fin AI enabled for all Users, Leads, and Visitors via Intercom Messenger only, and have it trained on all of our published support articles, as prompted via the Simple Deploy process.I’ve scoured all available Fin AI settings within Intercom to no avail, and I’m not able to find another community thread about this topic. Can anyone offer me

HelloThere is bug in the integration,Sometimes tickets fail creating with Unauthorized error from jira It seems the intercom is using a wrong/expired header token while sending request to jira I attached here the screenshots  

I’m having an issue with the workflow in our ticket queue when closing a ticket. Normally when a ticket is closed the next ticket in the queue is automatically selected. For the last couple of days this has not been happening. For the most part it is reverting to the most recent ticket received in the queue, but sometimes it jumps to a random ticket somewehere else in the queue. I seem to be the only member of our team experiencing this so I think I have inadvertantly changed a setting somewhere but cannot find anything about this in the Settings or the Help section.

Hello guys, please i need help I would like to integrate some workflows where if an agent identifies a new customer and inputs their contact details as a lead, an automated email is sent to the customer and then 3days later, a follow-up mail is sent as well. I have checked the internal workflow, but i cant find something of such.I also want to create workflows on escalated tickets from intercom and its sent to slack channel directly for bug reports, Automating first response time and resolution time. 

Hey friends! 👋I’m trying to set up an automated workflow that follows up when Fin receives a negative CSAT, but I don’t want it to trigger for any conversations handled by my human teammates. Just Fin.Ideally, I’d like to automatically send a follow-up message to the user after they leave a low rating for Fin using native Intercom tools if possible. But I’m also open to creative solutions using external integrations (like Zapier, Make, etc.) if that’s what it takes.The “When a conversation receives a CX Score rating” trigger does not work for this at all, and according to Intercom’s support articles, the “If teammate changes the conversation state” trigger does not apply to Fin closing the conversation. Has anyone set this up successfully, or found a clever workaround? Any advice, best practices, or snippets you can share would be so appreciated! 💖

Hi Intercom CommunityI’m running into a couple of frustrating issues with our WhatsApp channel, and I’m hoping someone here might have experienced the same and found a fix. Fin interrupting teammate conversations: When a conversation is handed over to a teammate, everything starts fine - the teammate replies, but as soon as the customer responds again, Fin jumps back in and interrupts. This keeps happening every time the customer sends another message, resulting in the teammate constantly competing with Fin to manage the conversation. It makes handling more complex queries quite chaotic. Conversations closing prematurely: When a conversation is passed to a human, if the customer replies with something simple like “thank you”, Fin interprets it as a positive resolution and automatically closes the conversation — which means the teammate misses it entirely. For context, our “Let Fin Answer” settings are identical to those on our Chat and Email channels, where these issues don’t occur.I

Hi! I notice that when the state of a Tracker ticket is updated via custom workflow, any linked Customer tickets’ states are not also updated. In the Intercom UI, when a Tracker ticket state is changed, one receives the option to update the state of Customer tickets as well:Is there any way via custom workflows to have the same behavior? 

Whenever I select text from a ticket comment, no matter how I copy (ctrl+c or right click), the entire message gets copied instead of the selected text.Anyone else experience this and have a solution?
