Ability to Bulk Update Conversations or tickets by ANY conversation or ticket field | Community
Skip to main content

When searching for conversations or tickets or viewing a list created by a view, we often want to apply bulk updates to the list of conversations or tickets. Currently, the list of changes you can make to a conversation/ticket is very limited. 

We would like to be able to change any conversation or ticket field whether standard or custom field. 

Example:

I have a view showing me tracker tickets. I want to bulk update all tickets in this list with a value from a custom ticket field called ‘Product’. I cannot do this at present.

Hi @Rachel M12,

You’re right — Intercom’s current bulk update options are limited to a small set of fields. At the moment, bulk editing custom fields (like your “Product” field) isn’t supported natively.

Two possible workarounds:

Export + Re-import via API: Use the Intercom API to update ticket fields in bulk.

Automation/Workflows: If the updates follow rules, you might set up a workflow to apply changes automatically.

That said, your request makes a strong case for expanding bulk update functionality. I’d recommend posting it as a feature request in Intercom’s Product Ideas or submitting feedback directly to Support so it’s on their radar.

Hi ​@ava, thanks for the response! Using APIs is not do-able for us as we need agents to be able to make these changes and this is not a level of access they have. I did post this as an idea, so hopefully it will get some traction!
