I'm reaching out to the community for some guidance on managing our help center more effectively, particularly regarding the visibility of certain article collections on the homepage.We've set up a collection called "Learn," which is designated for in-page support articles. To maintain a focused and streamlined homepage, we do not want this collection to appear among those featured on the main landing page.Has anyone had experience with hiding a published collection from the help center homepage? If so, could you share how you achieved this?I'm also interested in any tips on controlling which collections are displayed on the homepage. Ideally, we want to present our users with a selection of collections that are most relevant to their general inquiries while keeping more specific guides like "Learn" accessible only via direct link for the collection.Our help centreAny insights or directions to relevant documentation or settings would be greatly appreciated!
I’ve been building my own CSAT bot, as suggested in the Help Center. There it saysTo report on your own configured CSAT workflow, make sure to apply a custom data attribute to your quick-reply buttons.This will allow you to use Custom Reports to report on your own configured CSAT, segmenting conversations by ratings and exporting the raw data to calculate your CSAT scores.I am saving the responses to a custom data attribute, but cannot figure out how to set up a custom report that can analyse this data. In the report set-up, there doesn’t seem to be an option for this. Has anyone managed to do that/can tell me how it works? I couldn’t find the answer on the Help Center.
Once you’ve posted a note on a back end ticket - is it possible to edit it? Can’t see an option to do so in the 3dot options menu associated with each note. If not possible - is this something that intercom has an intention to introduce?
Are there plans to eventually include the “schedule a report” function on all reports?
Hi All, I’m wondering if there’s a report we can generate to see how many unique users sent us messages?I want to compare adoption between 2022 and 2023. Your help putting this together would be appreciated. Thanks! Michael
We're expanding our product offering into another business domain. This business domain uses different naming and sometimes different behavior for a given product or feature. We have a lot of articles. We would like the existing article content to adapt to a given business domain. Ideally, I set a section of content in an article to display if it meets my rule. This way we wouldn't need to copy the whole article and maintain two articles about the same thing. For example: Rule 1: Target audience = user.businessVertical = clothingRetailRule1 = true ? clothing : car; Article Content Hello valued RULE1CONTENT customer. Article Resolved Content (user.businessVertical = carRetail) Hello valued car customer.
Hello guys,I cannot download CSV reports from Intercom since yesterday. The Download file button is nonclickable. Support can’t help. They keep suggesting clearing cache and cookies or Incognito mode. All of my colleagues have the same issue. I know it’s not the end of the month but maybe someone tried to download reports already. Is this my account-related or a mass issue? It’s definitely has nothing to do with the browser cause we tried different devices and browsers. Thanks.
In Salesforce, there are ways to create Categories and multiple sub catergories to these data points. So lets say you have two categories: Category 1 and 2. In Category 1, you have the option to choose from X amount of options. When you choose one option, it will show specific data points to choose from in Category 2. The reason we are looking for this is to have more consistent data chosen in Intercom while also offering more data to choose from. We would love to have more specific data chosen in drop down lists but don't want to add too much to them right now as it just becomes too much to choose from. Just curious if there's been any demand for this.
I see that when you make a change to an article such as editing the title, it will change the public URL of the article. I understand that even with an old URL, Intercom will always redirect the user to the latest article. I am curious if this same logic applies to a Collection? Is there a way to get a static URL for a Collection? Thank you.
Is there a way to connect a help center collection to multiple help centers?
I was trying to use chatGPT for my customer service. When I search GPT in the app store, it looks like there are FederaGPT, Albus, and Aissistant. Has anybody used any of these services? Any comments?
Hi,I’ve got a problem with opening articles in the messenger. You can test this problem on this website: https://community.intercom.com/Click on an article in the list under “search for help” The article opens, click on the back icon Click on another article in the list under “search for help” The article doesn’t open, the messenger is blank and doesn’t respondI’ve also got the same problem with opening articles with window.Intercom(“showArticle”, 12345), sometimes the messenger doesn’t open the article and is blank and doesn’t respond. I think this might be the same problem.Step 1:Step 2:Step 3:Step 4:
Whenever I try to add a new attribute, I get a red warning stating, "Items with duplicate labels cannot coexist in the same list." Though I understand the message, I'm certain there are no duplicates. Has anyone else faced this issue and can offer advice? Thanks!
if we receive an email from a new user that is part of an existing company, we do not have an easy way to link them to the company. I do not know how to do anything with API and it seems silly to hire a developer everytime I need a little change.
Hi, new to workflow and running into a bit of a roadblock. I am trying to route users that interacted with either the custom answers or FIN, and get them to a specific team using Tags and I am not getting the chats routed to the branches created. Are Tags a good use for routing interactions to specific teams or is there something else that would work better?
Hi everyone, I am trying to do some in-depth analysis of my team’s capacity by looking at historical volume data. The challenge I am facing is that each support agent on the team can have up to 4 chats going at a time, so it’s not as easy as taking the total number of chats and multiplying by the average resolution time—I need to somehow represent in the math the possibility of multiple chats overlapping. Has anyone ever tackled this type of analysis before? How did you approach it? Thanks!
I'll really appreciate any help.
I sometimes share messages with users who are not logged in.At this time, I experienced a phenomenon that the message I sent yesterday disappeared today, and I would like to know the message storage time of the guest without id and email.Also, I would like to check if this can be changed in method or intercom setting.
Even though I've entered the correct API key, it still indicates an API key error. How can this issue be resolved positively?
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
I’m surprised this hasn’t come up more often when browsing the community- This was asked over on: How are Support Leaders exporting or extrapolating important customer data points in order to provide better insight to the rest of the organization about what Support Teams are talking with users about? For example:If I have a conversation data point called Category with a list of relevant things about our product, I would like to create a Sub-Category conversation data point that allows me to break this done. This feature has existed for almost a decade in Salesforce.
I've set up an A/B test for the customer visit a page segment, activating both workflows live. Unfortunately, the pop-up isn't triggering on the website. During the preview, I can only test either the A or B workflow. I'm unsure if I've configured it incorrectly and I'm struggling to understand the underlying logic. Could you assist me? I've attached screenshots for reference.
Is it possible to receive an NPS score/inbox or team member? Thanks!
Have a nice day
I've integrated a Product Tour link into a banner using Intercom. However, I've encountered an issue where clicking on the Product Tour link causes the page to refresh itself before initiating the tour. Ideally, the tour should start seamlessly since the banner appears on the same page where the tour begins. Is there a method to prevent this page from reloading upon clicking the link? Thanks!
