Good day. Could you please advise how to download conversations by filtering them based on workspaces, views, agent, tags, and closed status? I tried filtering by workspaces and views, but I couldn't find how to do it.

While I’m typing Japanese text with IME (Input Method Editor)  If I hit enter here, I expect it to finalize the Japanese text with IME BUT not sent it as a chat message yet. But this widget sent the unfinished text any way.

When entering Japanese text with an IME, pressing the Enter key mistakenly sends the incomplete text to chat. If I press Enter here, I anticipate finalizing the Japanese text with the IME, but not sending it as a chat message yet. However, this widget still sends the unfinished text anyway.

Hey everyone, I’m using the official Intercom Jira add-on and it works great. We also have some workflows set up to sync Jira and Intercom ticket statuses 🔥How are you keeping track of which issues are linked with Intercom in the Jira issue though? For example, let’s say we’re closing out a sprint and a handful of Jira issues might be linked with Intercom tickets. How do you know which ones to go close out?

Hello everyone,I’m Darshan Hiranandani, working on an application that has thousands of users, and I need to regularly create and update these users in Intercom, at least once a week. The problem is that the current Contacts API doesn't fully support bulk updates and comes with some significant limitations:It requires my app to track whether a contact already exists before performing a POST or PUT request. The API rate limits are very restrictive, especially for medium-sized user bases (166 requests per 10 seconds). It also requires storing the Intercom ID for updates, which isn’t ideal since my app uses an external ID for users. Additionally, the manual import process requires mapping each attribute, which is cumbersome and prone to errors.Given these constraints, I’m looking for a better approach or solution to enable bulk creation and updating of users in Intercom. Has anyone worked around these issues or found a better solution for handling bulk user operations?Would love to hear y

Hello,We’re working on integrating Intercom into our application and need help with the following use case:GoalWe want users to initiate a conversation in our application, which would then be automatically sent with a message generated by our app (not written by the user). This message would include essential details, such as information about an error the user encountered. Additionally, we want the conversation to be directly routed to a specific inbox in Intercom.ContextBackend Solution (avoided): While we could handle this via the backend by creating the conversation and using tags or keywords with an Intercom workflow to route it, we want to avoid a server-side implementation. Preferred Solution: The conversation should be initiated by the user but automatically sent with a pre-filled message from the app on the client side, and routed to the correct inbox.QuestionDoes Intercom provide an API or client-side solution to:Allow users to initiate a conversation that’s automatically sen

Hello,Can you help me with this questions?Is it possible to integrate with a third-party API that requires OAuth2 authentication?

After receiving this notification, I need to use their API—which requires OAuth2 authentication—to fetch additional data. The data from this API response will be used to create a ticket in Intercom.

I can’t find the way to get them!

Hello,I faced with unexpected experience when I cannot to capture video in Intercom messenger using iOS SDK since 17.2.0. Could you please help me to resolve this issue?My steps:Update iOS SDK to 18.2.0. Run the app, check that there is Intercom’s warning “Add NSMicrophoneUsageDescription...”  in Xcode console. Add NSMicrophoneUsageDescription to Info.plist according to Installation guide, step 2.  Run the app again, check the message is not printed. Open Intercom messenger, start a new conversation. Press a green plus icon. It opens an action sheet, choose Camera. The app asks only for camera permission, not microphone. Allow camera usage. Camera opens → only photo capturing is available, not video. Change SDK version to 17.1.2.  Run the app, repeat step 5, press a grey camera icon.  The app asks for microphone permission. Allow it. Camera opens. → Both options, Photo and Video, are available for choosing. Update SDK to 17.2.0, repeat steps 5-7. → Again, only photo capturing is availa

We create a lot of test accounts to test things in our app that have absolutely nothing to do with Intercom. However, every single one of these test accounts counts towards our MAU in Intercom. Has anyone created a custom code or other workaround to block these users from showing up at all? I previously asked support if there was anything and they said I would have to build this myself. We have a test environment, but these test accounts occur on our production environment as well.  Honestly, it is very upsetting since I know competitors allow you to blacklist certain domains within your settings so none of your data is disrupted by your internal tests. 

Hi everyone, I hope you're doing well! I'm looking to integrate Intercom into my portfolio website, M Zahid. I want to use it to interact with visitors and capture their details, like email and name, when they're logged in.I came across Intercom's official WordPress plugin, but I'm unsure if it automatically collects this information or if I need to include additional scripts or configurations to make it work seamlessly.Has anyone successfully set up Intercom on their website and can share the best steps to achieve this? I’d appreciate any guidance or tips.Thanks in advance!

Hi!We are integrating the Intercom API in order to send email messages to our users from our App, and we're already being able to send them, being received, checking the seen status, etc..., ​We would like to use a custom template when sending our emails, but we're not able to achieve that.We've trying creating a new template, and when sending the email from the intercom page, it works (email is received with our custom style) but when sending through the API, we can just select plain or personal, but in both cases, the standard style is applied.We're not aiming to do anything really special, just using some custom Google fonts and customising the colours of the buttons. Thanks a lot in advance. Cheers,Diego.

Hi team, I am a new developer, and I need your help.I have a website for users with domain app.xxx.com, and a support website with articles support.xxx.com. I am setting my page articles to private access, so if the user is not logged in, they will see the message "Unable to load this article, you may need to sign in first" with the button url.I am looking for a way that after clicking the button url, it redirects from page support.xxx.com/en/articles/yyy to our login page app.xxx.com, after login it redirects back to the page articles support.xxx.com/en/articles/yyy. i can do that if i add query return_to = support.xxx.com/en/articles/yyy. But each page will have a different url, is there a way i can get the current url address and set it to the button url?
