Intercom Product Area

For our use-case it's necessary that we have a high number of agents that can *NOT* see each-other's ongoing conversations.  After some testing, it seems like even a user with all of its permissions switched to "OFF" can still go to inbox > See More and gain access to the inbox channels of all the other users.  This is problematic for our use case, where the different agents are essentially "exhibitors" on a digital event (and therefore it would be very bad if they could "spy" on each-other's lead conversations). How would you proceed?

How does Intercom get user information, such as phone number? I have a user who has two intercom profiles the one she is chatting with me on has a different phone number than what she claims her phone number to be.

How do I create Multi Language custom bot?I would like to show a Spanish speaking custom bot for visitors from specific countries or visitors that get to our Spanish website version.

I'm trying to gain more insights from our use base, we're rapidly growing our support team with hires all over the world, so I'm looking for more depth in conversation satisfaction through CES scores. (i am currently using Wootrics for this)  My issue is, It looks like I have to manually send these surveys at the time of closing a conversation. I'm rubbish at this - Write out close message > Click Apps > Add Wootric > Choose Survey > Send. I feel I'm missing a trick here right?

Can I start a custom bot from an ongoing conversation? If a user sends a reply to an open ongoing conversation, but his reply is off-hours, I need it to send a custom reply. How can I do that?

I'd like a csv of our article titles and ideally, the dates they were written.

I am having confusion about how our messenger works. We have an app that you will be needing to log in to be able to send a message. Now there are times when a user name has "user + random 4 letters/number" but then there are other messages that has users name on it. What is wrong? Why is it doing that?

With this setting enabled, Intercom says that customers can reply to emails, and those replies will open a new conversation. I'm wondering - in that situation would our team be able to see which email conversation the customer was replying to or would we need to scroll through past conversations to get this context?  Thanks everyone 🙏

Hi, we want to notify an external system when we send a segment based chat to a group of users.Actually we don't find any way to do that. Via webhook we only can access when a single message is sent to a concrete user. but not in massive messages.Thank you

Hi! I'd like to use logic and loops in transactional emails just like I can in other transaction email providers. For instance, this the docs from Customer.io: https://www.customer.io/docs/2-email-basics/#dynamic-content-level-ii/p> Is that possible now?

Hey folks, I have a team with several agents and they use Round Robin system to get the conversations. Sometimes one person gets the "bad ones" that take some time to resolve so they can not address the new ones fast enough while other agents might get free.  I was thinking if I set Inbox Automation rule, for a conversation that is not replied to for X minutes, and assign it to the same team it was already assigned to, will this trigger Round Robin again and get this conversation to the next in line (hopefully not the overloaded person). I'm aware of Balanced option, but that does not really solve re-assignment of unanswered conversation (it just gives new conversations to less loaded agent).

In the web app, I can search for an article and get results, but clicking on any article leads to a blank page

We are looking for a person or company that could provide services in the setup and implementation of a world-class customer onboard experience using the Intercom Product Tour product. We currently use the Support and Marketing products are well. We will be launching a new product in the Work Management space in the upcoming weeks and are ready to hire a resource now. The name of our company is SmartSuite, but we have not yet released any information publically as we tried to be very quiet about what we have been working on for the past 2 1/2 years.I am happy to provide more details to anyone that would like to propose on this work. Thank you.

How can I get sound notification on mobile app (iOS app) when a visitor comes on the website?Or there is no such option, and I can only get notified when the visitor initiates the chat?

Is there a limit to inbox storage?  For example:  How much can your inbox store in total? or,  How much data can one inbox conversation store?

I am able to create posts that reappear every time a user navigates to a particular URL, but for some reason the banner will only appear once. Here is a screenshot of the Banner that would not appear more than 1x per user. Notice I have the frequency set for every time a person matches the rules. If you have any suggestions on how to fix this, please let me know. The banner is better than posts or chats for page issues. 

We receive a large amount of requests from the Email channel. I have a set of rules in place to tag conversations and wish to provide Buttons with potential self serve answers for requests arriving via Email.  

I'm looking to run a timing test for one of my custom bots. I'd like to have it appear on certain pages of my website but also test WHEN the bot appears. It doesn't appear I can do that. I can only have OR logic or AND logic for my bot rules. Is there any way I can combine and/or logic here? Also, when I'm running an A/B test on a bot, is there a way to create different rules for the tests I'm running? I don't see a way to do this.  Thanks!

how do I decide which bot to use if I want a path based answer system in place for self-help for customers?

I need help with setup and automation. Is there an Intercom expert I can book time with to help me get started?

I would like to: Snooze conversation for 7 days and the close them automatically. I made a macro saying "snooze for one week and add tag" but when I made an automation saying: if customer is unresponsive for 7 days if tag is XX then close the conversation. That last part does not work.  What am I doing wrong?   

To put you in context, we have an app where we want to show an onboarding tour the first time the user enters, but this user could be type A or type B, so depending on which is the type of the user, we want to load the Tour A or Tour B. How could we handle this? Thanks a lot! :)

We have been building out Product Tours to give our customers a full onboarding tour through our software. To initiate the tours in the right place, we have used a lot of 'current page rules'. However, they do not want: the tours are not triggered at all. To provide you with a little more detail, our tours should trigger on each new URL that ends with a specific parameter. This tour should then be shown once to this user. Although the preview within the Intercom interface works fine, and some older tours do too, these new ones are never triggered. An example can be found in the screenshot.  

Hi folks! I'm Alissa, a Product Manager at Intercom. 👋 I wanted to ask whether any of you ever requested the ability to create auto-replies for conversations? If so, I'd love to know more! Why would that be useful? When would you want to send auto-replies? Detailed examples of your workflows would be super helpful! 🙏 @Product Wishlist​ 

Some customers will open multiple chats and only use one for interacting with us. We would like for you to only be able to start one chat at a time. Has anyone done this and can help?
