Hi everyone,I’m seeing a strange issue with how intercom handles some external links shared inside messages and help center articles. One example I ran into was when a user tried to open a page related to the daily telenor quiz.When the link is clicked from an intercom message, some users either get a blank page, a blocked redirect, or the page opens without loading its scripts properly. If they copy and paste the same link into the browser directly, it works fine, which makes me think Intercom’s link handling, tracking, or iframe behavior might be interfering with how certain sites load.I’m wondering if this is caused by security headers, https enforcement, or how Intercom wraps outbound links for tracking. Could things like csp, mixed-content blocking, or redirects affect third-party pages that weren’t designed to be opened inside embedded or tracked links?Ha

Hello everyone,I am facing an issue with Intercom Push Notification when it is a cold start (App is terminated, you receive a Push Notification and this notification will wake the App). While testing on Simulator that, if i am running my app from Xcode, terminate the App (on Simulator, not on Xcode), send a message to my test user, wait the push notification, receive it, tap on it but when i tap on it, Intercom Messenger does not opens the modal chat, it keeps me on my WorkListView (WorkList is a subview of RootView, that appears after SplashViews finish animation and transit to WorkListView).I have already made installation (API Key, API ID and Push Notifications are enabled on Settings > Channel > Messenger > Install > Install for Mobiles), Apple Developer is already configured, when i open the Messenger on my App, i can send and receive messages. When App is open but in background i am able to receive and wake the app in the correct moda

Hi Intercom team, we receive several errors after trying to login a user with attributes using react-native sdk.We check if the user is logged in before making a Intercom.loginUserWithUserAttributes call.A short stack-trace for the error we receive: code: 102,domain: io.intercom.ios.error.network,message: Error in loginUserWithUserAttributes,name: Error,NSLocalizedDescription: HTTP Error: 400 bad requestWe send email and userId to the method call, like this: Intercom.loginUserWithUserAttributes({ email, userId }) Could you help us understand why we still get an error, I’ve run a console.log for both email and userId and both seem legit.

Hello!Hoping someone can help with this issue we’ve been facing when trying to integrate Fin in Slack. We’re using Fin in Slack for internal team use only (not customer-facing). The goal is for Fin to respond to teammates in designated Slack channels without ever involving our human Support team.However, we’re experiencing an issue where Fin keeps automatically routing the conversation to our human support teams despite the workflow being set up so that only Fin should be responding in these conversations. When the conversation ID is checked in the workflow troubleshooter no workflow is triggered. More details below:We have 3 Slack channels configured to trigger Intercom conversations (these channels can only be accessed by our internal teams)Channel settings: Trigger on keyword and a specific emoji Only these 3 channels trigger conversations Workflow setup:

Hey, im currently creating an Chatbot Workflow. My maingoal is to split the current workflow in 2 parts. I want to do this to clean it up a bit.The Workflow asks the User if hes a Customer or a driver and this is where i want to split it. Id like to have one workflow for customers and one for Drivers.Any Ideas on how to implement this?You can see the current Workflow on the attached picture. 

Hi!I’m new to Intercom and Workflows. I’m a French speaker, so apologies if some of the wording isn’t perfect.We use Intercom to communicate with professionals using our AI tool for healthcare.To improve efficiency, we created a Workflow that automatically generates tickets depending on the issue type.I looked into the “Auto-close incomplete Workflow conversations” option, but it doesn’t work in our case, since most of our Workflows end with a ticket.I also considered using the “When the customer doesn’t respond” trigger, but that doesn’t help either—because it’s the bot (not a human) interacting with the user.And most importantly: I don’t want conversations to close automatically when the Workflow ends, because our goal is to continue helping the client if they still need support.Fin suggested I try using tags inside the Workflow to trigger auto-close only in specific cases.So I w

I just shipped a free app called Smart Routing - reads the conversation, suggests which team should handle it + tags. One click to assign.Now figuring out what to build next. Auto-routing? Priority detection? Custom rules?What actually wastes your time when deciding where a conversation should go?

Hi there,I've been looking through Intercom documentation, and it seems like there's something called a Custom Channel and an event called "custom channel base event." However, when I dig a little deeper, it seems that’s somehow connected to Fin?Not trying to integrate a conversation with the Fin chatbot; rather, I am looking to use my own pipeline for our users to interact with my customer service team in Inbox.What I'm looking to do is integrate my custom app as a custom channel in Inbox so that our team can interact through our own managed integration via API.Does anyone know:How to access this capability? If this feature is gated? Whether usage of this feature is billable or if it is included in the standard subscription tier?Thank you!

Please help, previously there was no problem. But now the image sent from the webhook does not include the complete url.

I want to connect the Twitter channel with Intercome, but we need to see how it will happenhow the massaging appearhow will it reflect on the reportcan I send or receive massaging from it or not 

Hi Team,I’m Prakash Hinduja, a consultant and advisor based in Geneva, Switzerland (Swiss) , specializing in crypto, renewable energy, and gold investment.

Hello,We integrate with Intercom using webhooks. When an admin replies to a conversation, we receive the reply via the conversation.admin.replied webhook event.When AI Inbox Translations is enabled, we continue to receive the original replies through the webhook, but we’re unable to receive the translated versions of those messages.Could you please advise on how translations can be accessed via the API or webhooks? 

Hi team,I'm looking to upgrade @intercom/messenger-js-sdk from 0.0.13 to 0.0.18 in our Angular application, but I can't find a changelog or release notes anywhere.The npm package doesn't link to a public GitHub repository, and there's no CHANGELOG.md in the package.Could you please:Publish a changelog for the SDK (even just in the README)? Or point me to where release notes are documented?This would help developers assess upgrade risk and understand new features. I've done a diff and can see additions like hideNotifications() and whoami(), but official documentation would be appreciated.Thanks!

I’m seeing an issue with a “blur” overlay being left on top of the conversation window when Intercom loads after calling [Intercom presentMessageComposer:NULL] or [Intercom presentMessageComposer:@”text”]This only happens when building on XCode and only when running on iOS 26. Any other combination (e.g. XCode 16 on iOS 26 or XCode 26 on an older iOS version) worksFeels like a race condition in the loading logic perhaps? But hard to investigate as it’s closed source.This happens on intercom-ios versions 16.6.2, 19.4.1 and several in betweenDoes anyone have any information or a workaround?  

We want to add a note to an Intercom conversation but without impersonating an existing admin user. The API docs suggest that to reply with a note, you need:message_type: note type: admin an admin_idWe’re triggering this from within our app and, under certain conditions, want to programmatically append additional context as an internal note. If there’s another way to attach context to a conversation, that could also work.Ideally, we’d post on behalf of a bot or app, but I can’t find anything in the docs that supports this. Impersonating a user feels like a security risk, and creating a dedicated seat for this purpose introduces its own concerns.Is there a recommended pattern for handling this?

Hi Community 👋We’re currently doing a large cleanup of our Intercom workspace — workflows, macros, tags, attributes, reports, roles, permissions, etc. — and we’ve run into a major limitation regarding report access for Admins.Even as Workspace Admins, we cannot see, edit, or delete all reports. Access is limited to only those reports explicitly shared with us. This creates challenges when trying to maintain workspace. For example, if we want to remove or archive a tag or attribute, Intercom blocks the action if it’s used in a report we don’t have access to. That forces us to track down the report owner, request full access, and wait for them to respond — which can take days.The situation becomes even more complicated when report owners are on maternity/paternity leave or long-term leave. Support has informed us that they cannot delete these reports on our behalf, leaving us effectively blocked from cleaning up parts of the workspace.We ac

Hello, according to FIN there is no way to merge conversation besides using the UI. Can you confirm if this is true? Merging conversations via api is a crucial part of our workflow. 

Hi,Could someone help me confirm whether I’m using the Intercom report correctly?For one of our clients, we need to generate a weekly report and track ticket follow-ups. Currently, the report only includes tickets that were created during that specific week. However, if I’m waiting for a customer’s response and the conversation is closed the following week, it doesn’t appear in the report.Is there a way to include these tickets in the follow-up, or am I missing a setting in the report?Any guidance would be greatly appreciated 😊Thank you!

Turns out a “Company” filter doesn’t work in any of the SLA reports. Leaving you with no way to see the team’s performance for any of your clients. Or any other company related info, such as attributes.I’m surprised a basic report is missing and was wondering if anyone has figured out a way to solve this.

The Jira Cloud–Intercom integration was originally set up by a user who has since been deactivated. As a result, the connection between Jira and Intercom is now broken.How can we restore the integration when the original installing user is no longer active?Reinstalling the integration using a service account may risk losing existing conversations, so we want to avoid that if possible.Can the Intercom Support team assist with safely restoring the connection without data loss?

Hi everyone,I’ve integrated Intercom into my website to handle customer messaging, onboarding, and support, but I’m running into issues with how user data is being synced from the site into Intercom.While the Intercom widget loads correctly on the frontend, user attributes such as email, user ID, signup date, and custom properties are not always updating or appearing as expected in the Intercom dashboard. In some cases, users show up as anonymous even after logging in, and conversations don’t always attach to the correct user profile. This behavior seems inconsistent and makes it difficult to track user history accurately.I’ve reviewed the JavaScript installation, checked that the identify/update calls are firing at the correct times, and confirmed that the attribute names match what’s defined in Interco

Hi everyone,I’m working on a project where members access a digital membership card ( for users to open support or access perks via a mobile interface). I’d love to understand how other Intercom users are handling similar workflows.Specifically: Has anyone integrated Intercom with a digital membership card or access card system? Are you using Intercom APIs, Automations, or Workflows to update or verify membership info inside Intercom? Any tips on securely syncing member data ( status, expiry checks) so Intercom can display the correct access level or message? I’m excited to learn how others are solving related use cases in Intercom  thanks!

I’d like to see questions my teammates asked Copilot that it wasn’t able to find answers for. Why is this not available in reporting? Visibility on unanswered questions seems like a simple way to identify gaps in our knowledge and content.

We are currently trying to implement a complete ticket tracking system from different channels like email inbox, intercom chats and aircall calls.  We would like to automatically create Hubspot tickets based on Intercom conversations, but have not found a clever way to do that yet. Does anyone have experience on how to do that and would like to share? :)

Anybody achieved to transfer Intercom conversations to a Hubspot Company's profile?
