Fin Product Area

Hello fellow intercom warriors 👋, I’m posting a question here, as maybe someone in the group has worked around it and faced a similar issue. (I also escalated to Intercom support to see if they could help.)Our pre-fin scenario was a decision tree from the start with Reply buttons. We are moving to Fin.The scenario is simple: when a customer opens messenger, we greet them with a message, ask them to type their question, and let fin answer before escalating. This simple to the point set-up works fine for the web. As soon as I add Android or iOS to the Channel settings of this workflow:I get an error , "At least one reply button is required on first path for mobile apps." This means I unnecessarily have to introduce a button-press actions, such as a reply here, to facilitate the messenger widget on the mobile. Is there any workaround for this?  

I recently created a post (no reply - only ability to react) with emoji reactions. Emojis can be interpreted differently; for example, a thinking face might convey curiosity, interest but also concerns, or doubts.Two hands together in prayer could be interpreted as “pray” but also “please”.  Could we implement a small popup message when hovering over emojis to briefly describe what each reaction represents? This way, we’ll ensure that everyone is clear on what each emoji represents and in turn, the data collected (and the reports we obtained) will be more meaningful. Just an idea to see what the community thinks about this? 

We'd like to have NPS attributed to user/contact records in Hubspot, and I'm not seeing how it can be done. I am wondering if the NPS score is or can be attributed to an Intercom user so that we an maybe sync it to Hubspot with the Hubspot Data Sync plugin. Any thoughts, input or help here is much appreciated. 

We are facing a critical issue with email notifications sent to end users who contact the our support team via email channel. The automated outbound email notifications are not working properly, causing severe disruptions.Issue Details:In some cases, no notification is sent to users upon ticket submission. In other cases, there is a 24-hour delay in sending the "Ticket Submitted" notification. Occasionally, there is a 20-minute delay, and rarely do users receive real-time notifications. We are planning to roll out the Intercom ticket management system to our customers. However, due to this critical issue, we cannot proceed with the launch until it is fully resolved.We have already followed up with multiple Intercom support team members over the past 2-3 days, but responses have been delayed or absent. If this continues, we will have to reconsider our choice of ticket management tool.We need an urgent update on the root cause of this issue and the ETA for a permanent fix. This is breaki

I’ve looked at help articles and other questions like this, but can’t find a solution. Every image that I upload into a product tour post comes up with an error (see attached image).I tried reducing the file size to 281px minus the line height of my text (per this article) and that didn’t help either. Any solutions for this yet? Is anyone else out there experiencing or not experiencing this? Would love your help/feedback!

Hi team,I’m looking into the possibility on FIN collecting information when a customer starts a live chat, and sets the Conversational Attribute to a certain value (‘I want to make a manual booking’).When this attribute has been selected, I’m envisioning that FIN will collect information from the customer and then pass over the compiled list of answers to an agent in the form of a ticket/a conversation, but with little need for the customer to reach out back and forth with the agent. For example:Customer starts chat Customer selects ‘I want to make a manual booking’. FIN answers, but because of Step 2, he has specific instructions to ask for the answers to a list of pre-determined questions (such as, ‘What is the name of the supplier, what dates, what room type, etc...’  FIN then thanks the customer and says that this will be booked for them ASAP, and we will reach out if we need anything else.For step 3, I am struggling to find where we would set up this list of questions that we know

Im generating a nonce-value on my CSP Header using netlify, and while Im seeing in my CSP header that the nonce-value is set, when inspecting the HTML, intercoms script tag does not contain the nonce value. Can someone provide some insight into how to get intercom to initialize with the CSP Headers nonce value, or is that not possible?

We track reports for article views on a weekly basis on a different platform, and as of this morning, all article reports have changed. I have waited an entire day, and 0 response as to why this has happened. We need reporting to be accurate to build on published content. Has anybody experienced this? Is the reporting simply not accurate? Is there any feedback from the intercom team that can help get this sorted? Can we possibly get support please

I am wondering if it is possible to update either a Lead Data Attribute field (People Data Attribute) or Qualification Data field based on if the field is null starting from when a visitor sends a message.  For example, setting custom attribute “Chat ID” with value “ID” from the Conversation Attributes section when visitor sends their first message. Custom attribute “Chat ID” from Qualification Data“ID” from the Conversation AttributesOr as an alternative, if its possible to use a data field from Conversation Attributes in sync settings for Salesforce (currently I do not see any of those fields in the selection list in the settings).

Workflow → “If customer has been unresponsive”  Problem Statement:- When a conversation hasn’t been assigned yet to an agent and the Lead/User/Customer is still interacting within any of the path(s) within a Workflow, but they suddenly become unresponsive after X minutes/hours/days, there currently isn’t a way to make the attached Workflow (see screenshot attached) to close the conversation or nudge the Lead/User/Customer to continue through the Workflow’s path.- The Workflow attached works regardless of if the customer is interacting with a Bot/Operator or a human.Currently, a member of the Intercom Support team confirmed to me that there is no option in Intercom to differentiate between where a customer is in the workflow, so the attached Workflow automation will happen at any time a customer has become unresponsive in a conversation.Example:- User A opens your Intercom Messenger and clicks on “Send a message”- User A My Product Idea:- 1. The workflow in the screenshot I shared shoul

One of our main offices located in Norway recently tried to use the translate feature in AI compose only to find it wasn’t an available option despite being seemingly in every other component that uses languages. Could you add more languages to the AI compose feature?

Hi Intercom team,we at Center just doing our initial integration with your product and running into some problems with iOS SDK. In the documentation we found the following:“Surveys don't currently support real-time mobile events, meaning your app users won't receive the survey immediately after the event happens. The survey will only send when a user update is triggered: A user launches your app, A user closes your app and then opens it after a few moments, or By updating the user via our mobile SDK methods. ”So in our app we are trying to present Intercom survey at a specific point in time when a user performs a specific action. We did create and registered a specific event for this. According to the documentation above, a user update should force the survey to be presented. However, no matter what we tried, it did not work for us on iOS. It does work on Android though. Can you please clarify if this functionality is supported on iOS? Maybe there is an existing bug or a specific w

Hi there! I have created a product tour and I’m struggling as it won’t get any impressions from external users.  I created a product tour with a similar configuration as many other times before (in which I had no issues). The triggers used are:When to send: (empty)  Where to send: contains “keyword”. Using one keyword included in the URL of interest.  Audienc: UsersAfter this I get an estimated 85k users that can see the product tour. However, after 2 weeks I got only 11 views from just internal emails in the company. So I’m not entirely sure on what’s going on. I have deactivated all other tours in case there could be any conflicts. And using this same sonfiguration before I got thousands of views in just hours.  Can you please help me with this? I’d supper appreciate the help 🙏

I want to send email with attachment to customer. Conversation should be created, when email is sent.I am using REST Api Message endpoint with flag create_conversation_without_contact_reply: true.Everything works fine except I can’t add an attachment.Is there any way how to add an attachment to message?

I can see the timestamps of when messages are sent, but users cannot. This would be useful to demonstrate first response times to users, and have a way to record the timings of the messages. 

 We need to create a flow that after a while if my teammate does not respond it is escalated to another person or team, I don't know if it is possible to do it through rules
