 Good morning, currently we are using the Intercom API with WhatsApp (inbound) and replying via the API. However, we are unable to find in the documentation how to respond to a conversation via API with an image. We would like to send an image directly, not just a URL.

Will a "seen" indicator be shown for group conversations?

We have signed the order form for a Support Pro plan. But we are now still in Starter plan.Right after we signed the order form, the Support Pro subscription showed up on the Subscription page. However, the Starter subscription was also listed on that page, which does not make sense. Aidan Simpson told us that it is better to cancel the Starter subscription. So, we went to the Subscription page and did the cancel. But this has caused the Support Pro subscription to be cancelled instead.So, now we are stuck in Starter plan. Our usage has been severely impacted by this.We have been trying to contact via Live Chat or email Aidan Simpson directly. It is the 4th days now, we still haven’t heard anything back from Intercom.What we needWe need to subscribe to the Support Pro plan and remove the Starter plan immediately!! This is our app URLhttps://app.intercom.com/a/inbox/bumuw2dq

Good day, community! How are you all doing?I would like to ask if anyone knows how to disable the in-app notifications from Intercom. Currently, they are causing us some issues. Just to clarify, I'm not referring to disabling push notifications, as those are working fine. I'm specifically talking about the notifications that appear within our app once it's opened, such as when a user receives a new message from our customer support center.

Hi,I am making requests against the “Search Conversations” endpoint https://developers.intercom.com/intercom-api-reference/reference/searchconversations and paginating (using incremented pages) until the “total_pages” number returned in the response.However, I noticed that each response always shows page “1” with the same next page number of “2” along with an identical starting_after token each time under the “pages” object. Why is this the case -- can a support member help me get this addressed?Thanks,Clouse

I'm unable to add team mates as it says "identity verification. We've prevented your workspace from sending email, including invites, as your workspace failed our workspace review process. Please contact customer support or visit our Help Center for more information."  

I am curious about how whether this is intentional or not with the iOS SDK. I am currently using 14.0.0. Everything is responding great to the larger dynamic text option, except for the actual messaging and text history. I recorded a screen capture of demonstrating what I mean with a much larger text size! Is it not updating the actual chat text a conscious choice?https://vimeo.com/844336751?share=copy  

Hello, Intercom team.I've encountered a serious problem when using Intercom ios sdk on the latest versions of ios 16.4 and higher, the application began to crash with an error when trying to open a conversation from the list of conversations in Intercom. (1)After that, I tried to update Intercom version to 14.1.0 but faced an even more serious problem, the application began to crash when opening the Intercom screen (after calling Intercom.presentMessenger()), including on older iOS versions. (2)Are you aware of these problems and can you suggest a solution?1)Xcode Version 14.3 (Swift)iPhone iOS versions 16.4 and 16.4.1 Intercom iOS SDK version 13.0.0 (installed with cocoapods)Error description:Thread 1: "Invalid batch updates detected: the number of sections and/or items returned by the data source before and/or after performing the batch updates are inconsistent with the updates.\nData source before updates = { 1 section with item counts: [1] }\nData source after updates = { 1 section

At the moment even after passing the token, we are unable to recieve push notifications sent via intercom into our iOS apps.a confusing thing which i could not clarify on the docs was does intercom needs the apns token or fcm token for the ios app. since we use firebase am not sure what intercom requires as its not clear on the documentation. the end result is we are not receiving any notifications, when a agent replies or chat is intitiated.react-native sdk version :"@intercom/intercom-react-native": "^5.1.1",have successfully added the right apns key and bundleId to the settings.

Hello,We have started exporting our conversation data using the Data Export to S3 but we are finding several conversation parts that missed the author id and type, both are just empty like this:"author": {  "type": "",  "id": ""},This only applies to some conversation parts created by our support agents so it makes impossible for us to track our agents performance. Also in the same conversation several agents may send messages so it is not enough to have the admin list in the “teammates” object.Is there any configuration that we may be missing?

Started getting the following error recently when trying to update packages in our Xcode iOS project with Intercom’s 15.0.2 release:x-xcode-log://3FB75066-095F-4338-BB55-70D7B84D9276 invalid URL 'https://github.com/intercom/intercom-ios/releases/download/<INTERCOM_VERSION>/Intercom.xcframework.zip' for binary target 'Intercom' Looks like it isn’t rendering the “INTERCOM_VERSION” properly there? This is preventing all packages from updating in our project, so I had to temporarily force it to stop at 15.0.1 (which has been working fine).Any idea how to fix?

We are trying to keep our Intercom Android SDK up-to-date and therefore update it every few months. Unfortunately, the last two updates increased the app size by nearly 7 MB, which is a no go in such a competitive market where app size matters a lot. Therefore I would like to know if there are (1) plans to decrease the Android SDK size and (2) active monitoring about file size over the last few months. We will need to downgrade to an older Intercom SDK for now, so a fix would be appreciated!

I noticed that adding intercom-ios takes an awfully long time to fetch repository. Upon further inspection it looks like the repo is ~1.5GB in size. Swift package manager for some reason chooses to fetch the entire directory and therefore it takes an inordinate amount of time to download (over 8minutes).

Hi all!I use the intercom web version.After the user logs out of my application, I clear the session using the native Intercom('shutdown') method. Then I initialize a new session with the native method Intercom('boot', { app_id: 'my-app-id' }). The intercom widget appears. After a few seconds, it disappears with an error in the console.What am I doing wrong?

I love the visual it gives, but need to understand what goes into each section.  For example, is someone who views help articles included in the Seeking Support section and then the Tried to resolve with self serve content.  Tool Tips, are these classed as Proactive Support?  I have read the article, but am still unsure. https://www.intercom.com/help/en/articles/5652381-the-support-report/p>

Hi!We started seeing this crash in the Android Intercom SDK (stack trace below). This was on version 15.1.0, we’re updating to 15.1.1., but the release notes for it only mention "Fixed an issue that causes image upload to fail when Identity Verification is turned on”, which seems like an unrelated issue, is it?Could you please let the team know about this and provide any timeline for a fix of the issue? ava.lang.IllegalStateException: FocusRequester is not initialized. Here are some possible fixes: 1. Remember the FocusRequester: val focusRequester = remember { FocusRequester() } 2. Did you forget to add a Modifier.focusRequester() ? 3. Are you attempting to request focus during composition? Focus requests should be made in response to some event. Eg Modifier.clickable { focusRequester.requestFocus() } at androidx.compose.ui.focus.FocusRequester.findFocusTarget$ui_release(FocusRequester.kt:90) at androidx.compose.ui.focus.FocusRequester.requestFocus(FocusRequester.kt:0

Hi Intercom Team, I want to understand the user’s Intercom Login flow. The purpose of this analysis is to capture User’s active hours in Intercom by analysing activity_type and timestamp.So far, the normal login flow is 1) admin_unauthorized_sign_in_method 2) admin_login_success , and when user changes to away mode then it shows 3) admin_away_mode_change  However, I found some cases that admin_login_success shows up again after admin_away_mode_change.  Question: What could be the possible scenario of this?  Thank you in advance Yoon

Hi I'm new here. I have set up Intercom native integration with WhatsApp and can't find a way to send outbound WhatsApp messages to my existing contacts. Is this a feature available? Or do we need to work with Octopods?

We have recently updated to 4.0.1Based on the docs, it appears we are using the correct flow of calls when we wither get a new sign-up or a log-inawait Intercom.setUserHash(userHash)await Intercom.loginUserWithUserAttributes({ email, userId })await Intercom.updateUser({...}) With the above, we get [HTTP 401] - Failed Identity Verification check, after the sign-up call. Interestingly it only occurs for a new user sign up. Login works fine. I have tried adding in await Intercom.loginUnidentifiedUser() before I call loginUserWithUserAttributes but oddly I then get the verification error on the updateUser call. Is this a bug or am I missing something from the docs?  

You would think the Articles API needs to accept TAGs as a param for it to work efficiently….other wise you cal call only by single IDs…...Any one else agree? 

Is there an easy way to get a custom report of conversations with linked tickets? The data export for conversations does not include any columns on tickets like ticket ID etc and the data export for tickets does not include a linked conversation ID column? Our conversations can be rated but our tickets are internal/not shared with the customer and I want to report on the ratings of conversations with linked tickets.

Hello,I would like to inquire if it is possible to send automatic emails using Intercom. Specifically, I am interested in integrating it with my API to trigger emails when a user clicks on the "Forgot password" link or to send a welcome message upon registration.Could you please provide information on whether Intercom supports these functionalities and if there are any specific requirements or considerations for setting up such automation? Additionally, if there are any relevant documentation or resources available, I would greatly appreciate if you could share them with me.Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your response.Best regards, Vitor
