Removing teammates and how conversations reassigned impact reporting

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?

Help me turn off Fin

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

Can I integrate intercom MCP to my AI agent platform?

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.

Intercom React Native Unread Count Issues: getUnreadConversationCount and Listener Not Updating

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.

Intergrating Intercom across multiple apps

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?

How to Suspend or Delete an Admin — Clarification on Parameters

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.

Ruby bindings not working when searching contacts collection

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?

Exporting conversation messages?

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!

Can Intercom be used in a purpose where we only want to track time spent on a task? Without any messages to be sent?

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?

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.

Setup individual user webhooks for a desktop application

Hello, currently creating a Desktop Compose app to work as a always on top mini display. I’m running a Ktor http server with the application and generating the users OAuth with a Redirect URL of: localhost:8080/callback which lets me use the rest api.The issue I'm having is when trying to use Webhooks, I don’t see how I would be able to setup an endpoint URL for each user who runs the application. My understanding is I’d have to run a single server that accepts every single users notification and forward correct notifications to the individual users? Looking for solutions as the only option I can see is to poll conversations every few seconds.

iOS app is completely unusable -- cannot login

I downloaded your mobile app (iOS) and attempted to login using Google. It said my business email is not associated with any Intercom user, which is weird, because on my Mac I can login to Intercom with my Google account, no problem. So I read your help article and then follow your instructions to create a new password, but I am still unable to login to your iOS mobile app. I have no problems logging in to Intercom on my computer, so why doesn’t your mobile app recognize my credentials? It is utterly useless!

[Bug][Android & iOS] Incorrect background color for the launcher icon on the first launch of Intercom in the app

Hello! I’m the RN (react-native) developer and integrated your mobile SDK in my app for both platforms.  I used 8.6.0 version of this package RN-Intercom. I found a bug related to the launcher icon background color. This issue appears only in the current version. I tested the previous four versions, and the bug was not present in any of them. I double-checked the mobile SDK style configuration in the web settings, and everything looks correct to me.Important note:This issue occurs only on the first launch of Intercom in the app.I would be very grateful for a solution to this problem.

Messenger intermittently fails with "Somethings's gone wrong, content could not be loaded" (iOS and Android)

Hey everyone,I'm running into a frustrating issue with the Intercom SDK (iOS and Android) and wondering if anyone has seen this before. Ever since switching to the Intercom SDK, I've noticed way fewer support requests coming in. At first I thought maybe that was a good thing, but then users started emailing me directly saying they can't access support through the app.The error they're seeing is "something's gone wrong. Content could not be loaded" - both in the messenger and when trying to view help articles. I've attached a screenshot from one Android user. The weird thing is that if they sign out and back in, it starts working again temporarily.I initially suspected JWT validation issues, so I disabled that completely for both iOS and Android, but the problem persists. When I contacted support about this, they suggested it might be network issues, but that doesn't make sense to me since signing out/in fixes it for that specific user.The really annoying part is that the SDK doesn't se
