Fetching articles from a specific help center using API

I’m fetching articles from Intercom using the API. In the case where multiple help centers are present, how do I fetch the articles from only a specific help center and not all articles? Alternatively, I am also open to fetching all articles but filtering them on the basis of help center. How can I do this using the API?

Prakash Hinduja (Switzerland) How do you deal with visitors who bypass Fin immediately?

Hi, I’m Prakash Hinduja—a visionary in financial strategy. I was born in Amritsar, India, and now call Geneva, Switzerland (Swiss) I’m currently working on deploying Fin within our support setup and want to make sure it behaves optimally. If you've deployed Fin before, could you share a bit about any challenges you faced and how you tackled them—like setting up language support, customizing responses after assignment, or handling Fin across multiple brands or email addresses? Would love to hear your experiences and tips. Thanks in advance! Regards Prakash Hinduja Geneva, Switzerland (Swiss)

Workflow + Reply step + API

Hello guys, I’m facing a strange behavior. I think it’s an issue but I would like to explain it so you can confirm it. Configuration: Workflow Ticket Trigger : “If teammate changes the state of a ticket” From the API, I’m changing the ticket state. I have a workflow where one ticket state leads to a Reply step. If no answer is given from the customer, not any other possible path is used when trigger is made. Ticket state is changed but trigger is not done. Here is an example. When ticket state is changed “waiting_for_check_in2” message “Reminder check-in 2 (30min)” should be sent. It’s not. It really sounds like a bug to me. It’s not written anywhere (at my knowledge) that “Reply” step is blocking any new trigger. What do you think?

Creating Zendesk Tickets at the end of a conversation is impossible

Hi, I created data connector to connect Intercom to Zendesk and tested it. It creates a Zendesk ticket at that testing phase. Then I created a workflow where I trigger the Zendesk data connector if the customer requests talking to a human and offer to add Name and Email. There are two paths: first path (A, when selected, tells the requester that a ticket was created and second path (B) in case the ticket creation has failed. In the preview, it shows that path A was selected and a ticket was created (without receiving concretely a ticket on Zendesk but this is fine since it is preview). When I make live test, it shows always path B i.e. connection to Zendesk has failed. There are no logs shown in the Intercom account. It is impossible to debug I contacted you since last Friday to get human assistance and I followed all the instructions then silent radio for 24 hours. We are paying a lot of money for a service not working as announced and with no assistance. On our way to cancel subscrip

Access Linked ClickUp Ticket From Conversations API

I’m trying to create a Zapier integration that syncs Intercom conversations to ClickUp tasks. We have the Intercom ClickUp integration set up such that we can link conversations to tasks just fine. The problem is that the Intercom API does not expose the ClickUp task ID or any other identifiers that could allow Zapier to see that Interom → ClickUp link. Is there a workaround for this, and if not, is it possible for the API to be extended to provide access to the third-party integration’s conversation attributes?

Play Store Rejection due to READ_MEDIA_IMAGES in Intercom React Native SDK

Hello Intercom Team, We are using @intercom/intercom-react-native for in-app support, which is a core feature of our app. Users often need to attach screenshots when contacting support. According to the official documentation, the SDK requires storage permission. On Android 13+, this maps to READ_MEDIA_IMAGES. However, Google Play has rejected our app, even after appeal, because this permission is considered sensitive. They are asking us to justify its usage, and one-time photo pickers are not accepted since the Intercom SDK manages its own gallery internally. This is now blocking our app release. We saw intercom-android PR #587 regarding Android 13 media permissions. Can you please confirm if this is the only way for the SDK to work, or if you plan to move towards the system photo picker (which Play Store prefers)? Is there an official statement from Intercom that we can submit to Google to justify this permission? This is a critical blocker — without this permission, our users cannot
