WhatsApp integration, if already using the API

We’re looking forward to implementing WhatsApp for Intercom, considering the documentation on integrating the WhatsApp App with Intercom we have some concerns, we hope people who have already done this integration may be able to answer.We’re currently using the WhatsApp API for custom marketing messaging and authentication, it simple, it only redirect the user to our App, however we would like a way to see if the user reply, and if so, for our customer service team to continue the conversation, note that there’s no third party manager of the account, we call the API ourselves, the WABA is hosted on Meta directly, we hope that can be achieved through this integration, so in concrete these are our concerns:If we integrate WhatsApp, we’ll lose access to manually call the WhatsApp API for authentication OTP and marketing messages? Can the API still create new conversations with new users? Can the integration at Intercom see those message, so the Customer Support team see the entire convers

Intercom React Native unread message count not updated

Hi,We are developing a React Native app with Intercom integration using the https://www.npmjs.com/package/@intercom/intercom-react-native package. We want to get the unread message count for a user to show a notification when the app is open and the user receives a new Intercom message.We have tried using the addEventListener with IntercomEvents.IntercomUnreadCountDidChange but the passed in callback does not get invoked when new messages are received. We also tried calling the getUnreadConversationCount method and that returns the initial count of messages when our app starts and the user is logged in into Intercom, but subsequent calls always returns the initial value event when new messages are received in Intercom. Calling logout and login again in Intercom and then calling getUnreadConversationCount returns an updated count, so it looks like a bug in your code, or are we doing something wrong on our end?Thank you,Mikael Amborn

Deep links on Intercom push notifications for iOS do not send the user to the correct page.

Package: @intercom/intercom-react-native: ^3.0.3 When a push notification is sent via Intercom, with a deep link, the deep link opens correct on android (it opens to the correct in-app page when the app is in the background and the notification is clicked, as well as when the app is closed and the notification is clicked). However, on iOS, if the notification is clicked while the app is closed, the notification does not send the user to the correct page, it simply sends them to the home page (the page they would have landed on if they had simply opened the app by itself). If the notification is clicked while the app is backgrounded however, it does send them to the correct page. Anyone have any idea why this behaviour might be happening?

Issue with Language Override Not Updating in Intercom SDK

Hello,I am experiencing an issue with the Intercom SDK on Android. When I initialize Intercom at app startup, I set the current language using:UserAttributes.Builder().withLanguageOverride(currentLanguage) After changing the system language and reinitializing Intercom with the updated language, most of the content updates correctly. However, the "Send us a message" text remains in the original language.It seems that this specific text does not update after reinitialization. Is there a way to ensure that all content, including this text, is fully updated after a language change?Thank you for your help.

Conflict Between Crashlytics and Intercom Signal Handlers in iOS

 Issue DescriptionWe're experiencing signal handler conflicts between Firebase Crashlytics and Intercom SDK in our app. During app initialization, we see multiple warnings in the console:[Crashlytics] The signal SIGABRT has a non-Crashlytics handler (IntercomSDK_sentrycrashcm_signal_getAPI).

[Feature Request] Send whatsapp templates via REST API

Hi guys,As far as I know, currently there is no option for sending Whatsapp templates via REST API (correct me if I’m wrong). Whatsapp don’t allow sending messages via their API directly if the number is already connected to your system. That leave us without options in order to have only 1 single point of contact number for receiving user’s questions and being able to automate templates for our users. Other competitors (like Messagebird) already allow to send whatsapp templates via their API.So the question is, is there any plan to allow this in your API? Is there any ETA? This feature is quite important and if there is no plan to implement it would make customers contemplate switching providers. Thanks in advance.

Version 15.9.1 of the Android SDK broke our Sentry config

We upgraded the Android Intercom SDK from version 15.7.1 to 15.9.1. After pushing out a new release of our app, we noticed that we were not getting crash reports from Sentry. We use Sentry as well as Firebase Crashlytics to analyze crash reports.After investigation, we determined that the Intercom Android SDK also uses Sentry. Updating the Intercom SDK had overwritten our configuration. This resulted in Sentry being turned off for our app.Manifest merger failed : Attribute meta-data#io.sentry.auto-init@value value=(true) from AndroidManifest.xml:45:55-75 is also present at [io.intercom.android:intercom-sdk-base:15.10.3] AndroidManifest.xml:25:13-34 value=(false). Suggestion: add 'tools:replace="android:value"' to <meta-data> element at AndroidManifest.xml to override.Sentry discourages usage in third-party SDKs (e.g. the Intercom Android SDK).“It's considered bad practice to use Sentry SDKs in third-party plugins, packages, and libraries (such as payment SDKs or embeddable widget

Using Intercom's API to calculate common conversation metrics

I have been using the Intercom API to try to recreate the regular metrics in Metabase. I have tried using this resource but haven’t found it to be particularly helpful. For example, if I try this query, the response maps to the New Conversations Metric in the Intercom dashboard instead of the Assigned Conversations metric which is my intention. SELECT  "Inbox Details - Team Assignee"."inbox_name" AS "Inbox Details - Team Assignee__inbox_name",  COUNT(*) AS "count"FROM  "public"."conversations_data" LEFT JOIN "public"."inbox_details" AS "Inbox Details - Team Assignee" ON "public"."conversations_data"."team_assignee_id" = "Inbox Details - Team Assignee"."inbox_id"WHERE  (    (      "Inbox Details - Team Assignee"."inbox_name" = 'VIP Support Inbox'    )       OR (      "Inbox Details - Team Assignee"."inbox_name" = 'Support'    )    OR (      "Inbox Details - Team Assignee"."inbox_name" = 'VIP Escalation Inbox'    )    OR (      "Inbox Details - Team Assignee"."inbox_name" = 'Escalation I

How to calculate call initiated at for different call direction for the same conversation?

Hey friends, can you please help me determine which timestamp to consider for different call directions, namely inbound and outbound, within the same conversation? I couldn't find which timestamp to use as call_initiated_at for each call direction.I’ve attached a sample dataset where one tab contains ready-made metrics provided by Intercom, and the second tab includes conversation parts extracted from the conversation_part API object.Also, which two timestamps should be used to calculate call_duration, call_queue_time, and call_answer_time?

SwiftUI application using Intercom SDK cause slow launch time

We’re experiencing a slow launch time in our SwiftUI app, about 35% of the slow launch time is caused by Intercom initialization.  The stack trace indicates that multiple functions within the Intercom SDK, especially the initialization processes involving IMCCrashHandler, IMCConfig, HomeConfig, and HomeHeader, are contributing significantly to app launch latency. The UIKitCore and CoreImage components (like UIGraphicsImageRenderer and CIImage) invoked through ICAssets.backgroundImageViewWith also add processing overhead, which may impact the performance during launch.Here is the full stack trace given by XCodes tools:dyld start1.

"Check the Installation" – Domain Not Verified question

Hello,We have integrated Intercom Identity for both web and mobile (React Native). However, when performing the "Check the Installation" verification, our domain is not marked as verified, even though we are sending the user_hash generated from our backend based on the user's email.We suspect that the issue might be related to our handling of guest users. In our web application, we allow guest users, and in these cases, we do not send the user_hash. Could this be the reason why our domain is not being verified?We would appreciate any guidance on how to properly handle this scenario.Thank you!
