When can we expected to have the possiblity to forward email and to send emails to more than one receipients?

I basically need to duplicate all of my macros with slight edits depending on the team they are assigned to. They will be answers to the same questions, but the company name will be changed depending on the team (and maybe some very minor other changes). Since the macros will essentially be the same on each team, it would be helpful if I could title them the same thing.  Here's the problem: I do not want one team to be able to access the other team's macros. It will get way too confusing if everyone can access 2 almost duplicate macros for each macro. When I try to make a response only available for one of the teams, "Everyone" is still highlighted here (see screenshot). Therefore, even though I have separate macros per team, each team can access both macros.  I hope that makes sense!

I want the teams to only see their assigned messages, not all messages. I know that we can filter to show it as groups but we keep on being able to access the messages through the ALL inbox section.

Not delete notes, delete customer messages they have sent... with attachments of documents?

How do I search for conversations reported by users with domain name @abc.com ? We don't have companies configured in intercom and we have over 600,000 users. Intercom support is telling me that the only way to do this is to create companies and link all 600,000 users to the companies! That sounds very backwards and kinda defeats the point of having a ticketing system. Any basic ticketing system should have some filter/report to search for simple things like "Show me conversations where user's email contains @abc.com" and I find it astounding that Intercom does not have this basic functionality. Am I missing something here?

Hello, community. Love the notes, but the fact that they are "live" in the body of correspondence is creating a mess sometimes. I recently started to use JIRA to work with the user's cases. The good thing is that JIRA and conversations are cross-connected. You can leave a comment in the conversation, and it will be sent to the JIRA ticket and vice versa. The issue with any conversation, when we need to discuss the case with different teams etc is that now we have tons of comments right inside the dialogue with the user. Which is making all correspondence with the user very overloaded. Is there a way to keep notes outside the "body" of the chat with the user? Maybe an additional plugin or app. Thank you

My team currently categorizes conversations through conversation tags manually, and I would like to change this scenario, where the tool itself does the tagging automatically. I would like cases and examples of how I can do this. Can you give me some strength?

Lets say we have an external website that is associated with our main website. Our main website is what hosts Intercom. However, we want to put a "Contact Us" section and a link in our external website that redirects the user to a prepoulated message/bot. Is there a way to do this?

For example we request logs from our members as a .log file. I've added this so that I can even view it but I need to download it to my device which there is not an option for. Just takes me to a web link.

There are several instances on which Chat window is failed to load on ios and Android Both. The intercom SDK used are as follow:react-native wrapper : 3.0.4android : 12.4.1ios : 12.4.0 EditedIf anyone has faced same issue would love to hear what have you done to fix the same. Looking forward to hear.

Hi there, we have used intercom for years and need to re-strategize our support structure. We've grown a lot lately and now there are 15 of us in the queue (3 at a time) mainly working out of the "all" queue and sorting by waiting longest. We have two teams in Asia, and one in South America and we have 24/7 support. We're a B2B software product. Users are in our product much of the day and leads are handled outside of intercom.  Goals: Less unique support reps on tickets (currently too many people having to go back and read through comments and ask repeat questions)Keep response time the same or improve response time (15 median first, 5 minute median, 30 min average response time)Provide our higher paying clients faster support. Ex. if there is a case for a lower paying client which came in before a higher paying client, and none of them have a response yet, we'd want to work the case for the higher paying client first. Before we start building this, I'd love

Is there any way to go back to the old inbox ?

When we integrate the API into our app, there's a space in the conversation. Can anyone help me with how to fix this? Thank you

New Inbox initial thoughts... I'm seeing a lot of unused space and the new inbox seems to "waste" quite a bit in comparison to the old version. I'm no longer able to see the detail I used to previously. I'm attaching a screenshot where I've colour-coded the section from the old version onto the new, and you can see how much detail has gone when you're actively working on a conversation... 

When a customer replies to a message in a closed conversation via email sometimes this reopens the closed conversation and other times a brand new conversation is opened. We would like for a customer reply to always reopen the existing conversation so that the message thread is maintained but are not sure what the logic behind whether a conversation is reopened or not is or how to control this? We have disabled the "Prevent replies to closed conversations" option and are also using "Use an Intercom email address" as the default sender address. Thanks.

Is it calculated from the start of the conversation or is it calculated from the point I start to write with the client? The situation is that for example My colleague writes with some client but he/she needs my help so I overtake the conversation from the queue of my colleague to my inbox and start to write with the client instead of my colleague. Would my first response time be calculated from to complete beginning of the conversation or from the point I start to write with the client?Thank you so much, Lenka

Emails are coming in separate from their original conversations. Is this how the customer is replying to conversation? What could be causing this?

I would like to allow agents on our end to evaluate each conversation and use this data as a part of the lead/user scoring.  Could the community please advise what would be the optimal way to do so

I got an error when trying to download a *.csv file, but when I went through the unsupported file list (https://www.intercom.com/help/en/articles/3074152-accessing-unsupported-attachment-file-types *.csv doesn't seem to be one of them. This kind of files are very usual in our day-to-day, so it's important for us to solve this issue.

Do your customers ever seem to stop receiving your messages mid conversation?

We have multiple workspaces and team members who work in both. We are also using the Balanced assignment, so if they are active they are expected to work incoming conversations. However, I noticed when setting them up in an additional workplace, if they are active in one, they are also active in another. How do I make it so they are active in one but away in the other? It's disrupting our workflow and is causing additional work 😞 Thank you!

Hi there I just wanted to know how chats are merged for a particular account in Intercom. So if i have the same user coming to inbox second time , i should be able to see his/her previous conversations also

 Are there any plans to enable workload management based on channel or tag and not just team? For example, I'd like to be able to limit the number of live chat messages that my teammates receive while allowing them to still receive emails at the same time. In the above scenario one could receive an unlimited number of new emails which can be handled on the agents own time, while having a cap on chats which require the most immediate attention up front.

I'd like to customize my outgoing messages from inbox (not outbound), a header with our logo, our social media, etc. I've created a template, but I can't find a way to insert it to my outgoing mails in inbox.Has anyone solved this?
