Hi Intercom team,I’m working on a web app that’s embedded in a partner’s mobile app via WebView. Both our web app and the partner’s mobile app use Intercom, but each with a separate workspace.Are there any known issues or best practices when two Intercom instances (in different workspaces) are running in this setup? Specifically: Could this cause conflicts with sessions or the Messenger widget? Does Intercom handle isolation properly in WebViews? Is there anything we should do to avoid interference between the two instances?

I'm trying to install the iOS SDK and have been following the provided guide. However, when I click the "Check Installation" button at the end, it doesn't seem to register as installed. I'm currently using Xcode 16.4 with an iOS 18.5 simulator.I noticed that the SDK's README mentions Xcode 15 as a requirement. Is this version required only for installation, or is it also necessary for Intercom to function correctly? Additionally, will support for Xcode 16 be available soon?This could be a blocker for us, as Xcode 15 isn't compatible with macOS Sequoia 15.5. 

Having the ability to trigger a reusable workflow via API would be really helpful for making workflow/bot conversations more dynamic. A specific use case I’m working on right now is serving CSAT in conversations where customers interact only with a bot (no team member assigned).  Unresponsive triggers only happen with human to human conversations. If a customer goes unresponsive while talking to the bot, the conversation is considered abandoned, not closed. My thought was to use Zapier to trigger closed conversations and filter by convos NOT assigned to a team member, however I have no way of serving CSAT in that conversation via the API. I played around with starting workflows using this non-documented endpoint:curl --request POST \  --url https://app.intercom.io/ember/inbox/workflows/start \  --header 'Accept: application/json' \  --header 'Authorization: Bearer REDACTED \  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \  --header 'X-Csrf-Token: REDACTED' \  --cookie _intercom_session=RE

Can’t seem to get any contact location data to stick in my requests. What am I doing wrong here? Note that the request does not fail with any sort of validation error but the values do not get updated.For example, here’s the body on an update: {"signed_up_at":1753192392,"external_id":5668,"location":{"type":"location","country":"United States","country_code":"US","city":"San Diego"}}And the response body I get:{"type"=>"contact", "id"=>"redacted", "workspace_id"=>"redacted", "external_id"=>"5668", "role"=>"user", "email"=>"redacted", "phone"=>nil, "name"=>"redacted", "avatar"=>nil, "owner_id"=>nil, "social_profiles"=>{"type"=>"list", "data"=>[]}, "has_hard_bounced"=>false, "marked_email_as_spam"=>false, "unsubscribed_from_emails"=>false, "created_at"=>1753796921, "updated_at"=>1753797193, "signed_up_at"=>1753192392, "last_seen_at"=>nil, "last_replied_at"=>nil, "last_contacted_at"=>nil, "last_email_opened_at"=>nil, "la

Hey there!We’re about to run a script on our side this week to migrate our historical Zendesk Ticket data to Intercom.Has anyone in the community had experience doing this?Curious to know how you prevent email notifications from going out to customers, and if its possible to backdate the conversations when you are creating them.Cheers,Ian

Hi there, My team were wondering if it was possible to change customer ratings if this was deemed invalid from a supervisor POV?

I`m using the FIN Messenger in a test website. The frontend always call to call to  Intercom('shutdown') and Intercom('boot’) on page load. Before that, we get the JWT form our backend an send that to the messenger throught the API. That works well.The problem is when the user logs out of our backend, reloading the page still shows the conversation of the user who logged out.As if Intercom('shutdown'); and Intercom('boot', config); weren't working. function bootIntercom(config) {    if (window.Intercom) {        window.Intercom('shutdown');    }    window.Intercom('boot', config);}(async () => {    const status = document.getElementById('statusContainer');    try {        const res = await fetch('https://REDACTED/autenticar', {            method: 'POST',            headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },            credentials: 'include'        });        const data = await res.json();        if (res.ok && data.success && data.token) {            status.inne

Hi Intercom Team / Community,I am developing a multitenant app that integrates with Intercom using the OAuth 2.0 authorization code flow. When I exchange the authorization code for an access token, I receive a response like this: { "token": "dG9rOjJjMTdlOTQxX2JmNjZfNDdhNV85ZGFiXzFjMzdmYjZhOGI1ZDoxOjA=", "access_token": "dG9rOjJjMTdlOTQxX2JmNjZfNDdhNV85ZGFiXzFjMzdmYjZhOGI1ZDoxOjA=", "token_type": "Bearer" } There is no information about the token’s lifetime or a refresh token in the response.My questions are: Is it correct that Intercom does not provide refresh tokens at all? If yes, does it mean the access token is long-lived (officially valid up to 60 days)? After expiry, is the only way to obtain a new token by making the user go through the OAuth authorization flow again? Is there any recommended way to renew access tokens silently without repeatedly asking for user authorization? Does this behavior apply consistently for both public and private apps? For a multitenant sce

Hello! We frequently use conversations assigned as a daily/monthly metric for reporting purposes. When we remove a teammate and reassign conversations to another Teammate (usually myself), all those conversations appear in the daily reporting. To resolve this, I have to filter myself out of the reporting. This has a significant impact on a lot of our reports that are filtered by teammate and conversations assigned. Is there a way to remove a teammate from Intercom without having conversations reassigned appearing in the reporting?

Hi!We are not using Fin anywhere in our product and are not currently interested in implementing it. It’s never been integrated into a workflow and I have never manually turned it on. From our customer’s help chat perspective, they are seeing the following header on the chatbox: It happens when the agent they are speaking to goes idle or if the user clicks on a conversation that was previously closed. Why does this show up? I need to remove this. Our product’s customers have no idea what “Fin” is. I also don’t know what “The team can also help” means.Any help would be so appreciated! Thanks

We are developing an AI agent platform, my question is: is it possible to integrate intercom MCP to my platform, or does the current intercom MCP only support to use in the desktop client like Cursor, VSCode etc? I asked because I tried using the registration endpoint from https://mcp.intercom.com/.well-known/oauth-authorization-server and was unable to register my domain, but can register successfully with localhost domain, localhost domain mainly uses in the desktop client like Cursor, VSCode. Thank you. 

Hello Intercom Community,I'm encountering a persistent issue with retrieving and listening for unread conversation counts in my React Native application using the Intercom SDK. Neither Intercom.getUnreadConversationCount() nor the IntercomUnreadConversationCountDidChangeNotification event listener seems to be working as expected.Goal: My objective is to display the current unread message count from Intercom within my app's UI (outside of the Intercom messenger itself).Expected Behavior: When new messages arrive in Intercom conversations, the IntercomUnreadConversationCountDidChangeNotification listener should fire with the updated count. Intercom.getUnreadConversationCount() should return the correct number of unread conversations at the time of the call. Actual Behavior: Intercom.getUnreadConversationCount() consistently returns 0 (or null/undefined, please specify) even when there are clearly unread messages visible when I manually open the Intercom messenger. The Intercom.addEve

I wanted to check if it's possible to integrate Intercom into two different apps using the same workspace, while having separate FAQs for each. Is that supported, or would we need to create a separate workspace for each app?

We would like to understand how to suspend or delete an admin within our Intercom setup. Specifically: What are the steps for suspending or deleting an admin? What parameters or conditions can be used to identify these actions? Can we use has_inbox_seat for this purpose? If not, please explain why it cannot be used or if there's an alternative. Additionally, once an admin is suspended or deleted, we would like to: Fetch that updated status or Have that event trigger a webhook so we can sync the admin's status on our side in real time. Please confirm if this is possible and share the best approach to implement it.Looking forward to your guidance on this.

Hi,We are using the ruby bindings from the official repo here and there are a few examples on how to search for contacts, for instance:# Search for contacts by emailcontacts = intercom.contacts.search( "query": { "field": 'email', "operator": '=', "value": 'some_contact@example.com' })contacts.each {|c| p c.email}# For full detail on possible queries, please refer to the API documentation:# https://developers.intercom.com/intercom-api-reference/referenceWhen trying to access the resulting collection I always get a Resource Not Found (Intercom::ResourceNotFound) error. Doing this same search for the same contact with cURL or with the ruby net/http client works fine and returns the contact.Is the search in the ruby gem broken?

Hi! We need to export, or be able to report on, conversation messages (the actual message text). We’ve read the documentation regarding API or Amazon S3 but we’re wondering – is there any 3rd party app that you’d recommend using? Maybe someone that is already using a 3rd party app for it can give us some advice. Thanks in advance!

Hi there!  We are considering to operate our company’s customer service from Intercom in the future. Our current technology for customer service contain tickets which we use to report the time spent on tickets also. Sometimes we want to create a ticket manually just to report how much time some task have taken. To be more specific there are these kinds of tickets where we don't send any messages. We create a ticket manually, add some recipient but without any public message any message won't be sent. Time tracking app saves the data how much time a person has spent with this task.  Is this possible with Intercom? We know that there's many apps and integrations for tracking the time but does these work for our purpose? Can we create a new conversation where any messages won't be sent? Or do you have any other tips how Intercom could work for our purpose?

Is there an easy automated way to export Intercom reports and dashboard data to Notion? I would like to maintain company-wide ‘Scoreboards’ in Notion and Intercom is obviously a key part of that for CS.

I use the @intercom/messenger-js-sdk in react appshowNewMessage does not insert prePopulatedContent if the intercom chat has not been opened yetshowMessages also doesn't work.showNewMessage just opens a new chat on the first call, then it starts inserting prePopulatedContent. For testing, I'm using a constant as a prePopulatedContent. However, if you open the Intercom widget, the prePopulatedContent is inserted the first time. Versions:"@intercom/messenger-js-sdk": "^0.0.14","react": "18.3.1",
