Help others

Hello! I have put in a lot of work the last couple months to optimize our Intercom Workspace as well as Fin AI. We are seeing great results with our AI optimization (15% increase in resolution rates and a 21% decrease un unaswered questions!). I typically monitor the unassigned inbox to identify conversations that did not get routed through a workflow and then I add logic/configurations to ensure it doesn’t happen again. Everything is flowing as it should, except we continue to get spam/marketing emails to unassigned very consistently. Typically these are not assigned to a team and I just close them out. My question is, how do others handle these types of emails or conversations? Is there a way to do this with Fin but not use our resolutions? I want to maximize our teammate efficiency so I don’t want them to route to a team inbox where they spend time simply closing the conversations. Any insight or recommendations are appreciated!

Side Conversation Visible to Client

Hi All,We’re testing Intercom’s Side Conversations feature on the Advanced plan and ran into a situation we didn’t expect.Here’s what happened: Agent 1 was actively chatting with a client in a conversation. Agent 1 started a side conversation (via email) with Agent 2 to ask for internal help. Agent 2 received the email and replied via their inbox (outside of Intercom). That reply appeared inside the original Intercom conversation (expected) AND was visible to the client (unexpected). A few hours later, the client could no longer see that reply (it seemed to disappear). We were under the impression that replies to Side Conversations via email are kept private and not shared with the customer, so we’re wondering: Is this expected behavior? Was something misconfigured in how we sent the Side Conversation email? How can we ensure these responses never surface to clients again? I’ve attached a screenshot for context. The “test back” was a response from Agent 2 via email. Appreci

Some features not working on website (Beacons and Posts)

Hi, I have intercom set up on our website through GTM. The messenger is in the bottom and you can interact with it. I have banners working. But… when I go to set up a Beacon (tool tip) or a Post it won’t show up on the page. Any ideas? thanks

Auto scroll on Safari

Hi!It seems that there is an unwanted scroll behaviour when opening and closing intercom on Safari when there are messages in the message board.It is easily replicable on your codepen’s test app: codepen.io/intercom/pen/QGqWxwOpen the link on Safari, scroll to the middle of the screen, open intercom, write a couple of messages, close the intercom and open it again, it auto scrolls up.I’m a developer and I have this bug reported by our customers. Is there any way to stop this behaviour? Thank you!With regards,Kenan

Webhooks Not Triggering for Non-Admin Events

We have a webhook subscription setup for our app that is set to trigger for the event conversation.rating.added. An app user is having issues as it’s only triggering for a bot admin that they’ve setup. When other folks on their team receive a rating, those do not trigger a webhook. Is this the expected outcome? The authenticated user has admin permissions, the assumption was that they’d have visibility over the entire organization.

Role bases brand restrictions

I’m wanting to set up different brands so when a client emails a specific email, it assigns to that brand, and it’s that email that is the default email. My issue is, I’m wanting to set role or individual restrictions on who can reply to certain brands. Im not find any help articles or post about this. Is this possible?

Mobile carousel dismissing automatically on app start for logged-in users – React Native, Expo

We're experiencing an issue where the mobile carousel feature gets dismissed automatically on app start for logged-in users. Our app is built with React Native and Expo.To isolate the issue, we tested with a minimal project containing only an empty screen and Intercom login. The issue does not occur on the first app launch (since Intercom login hasn't been triggered yet). However, once the user is logged in and we send a carousel from Intercom, reopening the app causes the carousel to briefly appear before getting dismissed.We also ensured that Intercom login is only called on the first launch, as a support ticket suggested that calling it repeatedly might be causing the issue. Despite this, the problem persists. Additionally, we've attached a video demonstrating the issue: The splash screen appears first The carousel appears briefly The carousel gets dismissed Our white screen is displayed Similar issue is mentioned in

Newbie question using socials and new conversations

Hi there, I am starting with a very simply implementation. We are only using Facebook through socials to start (no web or mobile implementation.) We have a workflow that I want to run whenever someone opens a new conversation with us. I don’t want it to run the workflow for that person again until we close the conversation. Our workflow asks some basic questions and then assigns the conversation to me. I want to them communicate manually with the lead and then once I am done I want to close the conversation, and the next time they message us they get the workflow again.Thank you!
