In the "Developer Hub" section, we have set up the API version "1.4", this version is used in all our clients.In the old API versions (for example, in 1.4), there is a method "Create or Update User". In the new API versions (for example, 2.11), the endpoint "api.intercom.io/users" is not described, but there is a Contacts documentation section, which describes similar methods.Can we simultaneously use the old API version 1.4 for user management (through calls to "api.intercom.io/users") and the new API version 2.11 (through calls to "api.intercom.io/contacts"). For calls to the new Contacts API, we plan to use the HTTP header 'Intercom-Version': '2.11'.Will such use of two different API versions break the logic of Intercom, will user/contact data be lost?

Hi,I had opened a ticket which was flagged as solved, but it’s not solved.  I’m trying to use a snippet code i got from your developer website, to search conversations between two epochs. The codes runs without a problem on your platform, but when I use it in google scripts I get the response:{"code":"invalid_query","message":"Query body must contain a query hash"}I guess it is related to the JSON payload, though the string seems to be ok.I was able to work with the API without any problem, when I don’t send a body, but I always get the error whenever I include a body.I do have the ‘application/json’ in the code (the snipped below was copied directly) and I’ve tested removing the apostrophes from ‘content-type’ and I still get the same error.I’m adding a screenshot of the data structure in my memory. All looks as it should.Any clue?   const str = JSON.stringify({ query: { value: [ {field: 'created_at', operator: '>', value: '1690081199'}, {field: 'crea

Hi,In our product we want to start using the Android Mobile SDK, but for only a set of users. When the app opens we don’t know if the user needs Intercom, we only have that information later in the process.In the iOS Mobile SDK we used the SDK without any issue but in Android we found a warning: Intercom must be initialized inside the application onCreate() method. Initializing anywhere else will result in Intercom not behaving as expected and could even result in the host app crashing. Calling the initialize in the onCreate will add this user to the pricing plan? It’s safe to call this method and later when we are sure that this user has intercom enabled call loginIdentifiedUser?Intercom.initialize(this, "your api key", "your app id")Thanks

I currently use Intercom's Android SDK in my App for customer support. Previously I was using the 'io.intercom.android:intercom-sdk:15.1.4' then I updated the SDK version to 'io.intercom.android:intercom-sdk:15.8.3' (currently the latest) version. After this Android permission issues start to come i.e. Devices running Android Version 12 and below cannot grant permissions. This started happening only when I upgraded the intercom's SDK version, reverting the version to the previous one solves the issue. I am asking the user to permit access to READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE, which is getting denied.

Our mobile development team has identified a significant memory leak in the latest iOS Intercom SDK 17.1.2. This is causing app crashes for many users.Observations: Memory Usage: Before integrating Intercom, our app uses ~50MB of RAM. After integration, RAM usage exceeds 200MB, primarily allocated by the SDK.  Maybe this post can be relevant:    Performance Issues: The app experiences periodic CPU and IO spikes, leading to further slowdowns. iOS may terminate the app if CPU usage exceeds 50% for over 180 seconds. A way to cause a Crash: Interrupting an image upload, retrying, and repeating reliably crashes the SDK. Memory Profiling Suggestion: The SDK significantly increases RAM usage with chat usage, especially with image handling. Profiling suggests the decodedImageUsingGraphicsImageRendererRefWithCGImageRef function consumes substantial memory. Photo handling: The SDK renders images poorly, seemingly sending them at their full file size without any optimization. This is a ma

Hi,Our app uses a static analysis tool called Veracode to analyze the source code and all third-party libraries for both Android and iOS apps.Veracode has detected 9 high-level security issues in the Android version of the Intercom SDK.The following issue was identified by Veracode in 9 places: Issue Description:This call contains a path manipulation flaw. The argument to the function is a filename constructed using untrusted input. If an attacker is allowed to specify all or part of the filename, it may be possible to gain unauthorized access to files on the server, including those outside the webroot, that would be normally be inaccessible to end users. The level of exposure depends on the effectiveness of input validation routines, if any.Recommendations:Validate all untrusted input to ensure that it conforms to the expected format, using centralized data validation routines when possible. When using black lists, be sure that the sanitizing routine performs a sufficient number of it
