We are using the Intercom Android SDK in our android app to provide customer support. Specifically, we are presenting the Messages space using the following code in Kotlin:Intercom.client().present(space = IntercomSpace.Messages)We're interested in knowing if there's a callback or event triggered when the user dismisses the Messages space by clicking the back button. Our application has specific action that need to be executed when the user returns to our UI, and it would be extremely useful to have this kind of event available.I noticed that on the iOS SDK, there are IntercomWindowWillHideNotification and IntercomWindowDidHideNotification callbacks for similar functionality. Are these iOS callbacks triggered when the Intercom message space is closed? If so, is there an equivalent on the Android SDK?If such functionality is not currently available for Android, are there plans to introduce this

A NullPointerException is occurring in the Intercom Android SDK, specifically within the extractErrorString function. The crash happens when the SDK attempts to call getMessage() on a null Throwable object.Stack Trace:Fatal Exception: java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'java.lang.String java.lang.Throwable.getMessage()' on a null object referenceat io.intercom.android.sdk.api.ErrorStringExtractorKt.extractErrorString(ErrorStringExtractor.kt:16)...Root Cause Analysis:Upon decompiling the SDK's code, we've identified the root cause in the onResponse method of the setAuthTokens API call.In the onResponse method, when an API response is not successful (!response.isSuccessful()), an ErrorObject is created with a Throwable that i

I'm upgrading to React Native 0.77.2 and using Intercom SDK version @intercom/intercom-react-native 8.5.0. While most features work correctly, the app freezes and crashes on iOS after I open an in-app Intercom message and tap either the close button or interact with a Reaction within the message. Reproduction Steps Launch the app on iOS. Trigger an in-app Intercom message. Tap the "Close" button or interact with a React component rendered within the message. App becomes unresponsive and eventually crashes (ANR).  Relevant Logs (Xcode + Sentry)  Sentry Breadcrumbs show lifecycle events for multiple Intercom-related view controllers: ICMNoteViewController

I know that you do not currently offer Automated reporting that users can subscribe to other than setting up the dataset exports to send daily.  Do you plan to add subscriptions for REPORTS so that we can receive them to our email?

HelloAfter upgrading my app to Expo SDK 53 (React Native 0.79), the iOS build fails when using @intercom/intercom-react-native.Error message:❌  (ios/Tikin/AppDelegate.swift:1:2)> 1 | #import <IntercomModule.h>    |  ^ no macro named 'import'  2 | import Expo  3 | import React  4 | import ReactAppDependencyProvider› 1 error(s), and 3 warning(s)This line appears in the generated AppDelegate.swift:#import <IntercomModule.h>But #import is not valid in Swift files — this causes the build to fail.Environment: Expo SDK: 53 React Native: 0.79 @intercom/intercom-react-native version: [insert version if known] Build: EAS Build for iOS

One of the report metrics is to look at time spent on a ticket, and currently the available units are hours, days, years, but I really need the option of minutes. Can this be added or enabled?

We have recently implemented the SDK in our iOS app. Everything works fine but some users report that content can not be loaded? Not sure what is causing this?  

When trying to log event with `Intercom.client().logEvent` I’m displaying the survey with intercom, the ui contains close button in the right top corner. When try dismissing it with “back” navigation, I go back and then being brought again into the intercom window. Is there a way to dismiss the intercom window? Intercom.client().hideIntercom() does not seem to work

Hello guys,I read a little bit trough the community and the weird thing is how many cases their are about outbounding messages in whatsapp. And i think i speak for a lot of people here and thats just a shame for such a good developed platform not be able to send a whatsapp message to the customer. And even if i wanted to start a conversation from the dashboard i could not even send a message like: Hey “Customer name”, Because variables are not supported……. And don’t let me start about that whatsapp is a PAID add-On. And then i tought maybe it’s just the UI that does not support it. And i looked at the developpers page to send a message trough API.  And it’s not available even their, how much work would it be just to add a option to send it trough whatsapp programatically WITH variables.You already have the API?You could already send a outbound Whatsapp message trough the dashboard? And now i am just stuck, because i cannot

After communication with our provider, this was their answer: I see that the DNS-records help.emvo-medicines.eu aren't referring to the servers of Combell, but are referring to the servers of Amazon.You should download the certificate and install it on the servers of the web hosting of help.emvo-medicines.eu. So what steps must i do in order to have the help.emvo-medicines.eu HTTPS certified?

Our team uses Amplitude for product engagement reporting and historically we have been pretty light in including Intercom engagement data. As our team begins to launch more complex campaigns in Intercom, the use of Intercom tags for Amplitude analysis feels limited, especially when trying to measure events over time. My question is: Is it possible to create a custom event by posting to an Intercom endpoint with a series triggered webhook?As a super simple example: An Intercom series has a step where an email is sent to users. Rather than tag the user when an email is sent, can I create a custom Intercom event using a webhook? Adding and removing tags as steps in a series seems inefficient to me if we are trying to track reoccurring events over time.Thanks!

Has the webhook been updated to retrieve the subscription status of contacts?I need to sync my application with the subscription preferences expressed by users.Currently, I’m using the user.unsubscribed webhook to track when users unsubscribe via SMS. However, the product team has requested that I also sync contacts who had previously been automatically unsubscribed during the period when unsubscribe tracking wasn’t yet in place.

I’ve got a C# Blazor application that calls Intercom endpoints via api. When a new user signs up for my app, I want to send them a simple email with a link to a url. The email is a registration confirmation email. When they click the url in the email, they’re confirmed.I tried doing this by sending a POST to the intercom `/messages` endpoint with my own custom email body. It triggers the email just fine, but the url gets transformed incorrectly.I also tried sending the email via Intercom’s Outbound emails, but I can’t figure out how to trigger this email and include the confirmation url in with the payload.I’m also wondering if either of these paths is the right one. Please let me know :)

Hi,We added the Intercom Android SDK into our app.implementation 'io.intercom.android:intercom-sdk:15.6.3'When clients click these auto-reply conversations, the app crashed: Recently, we received many crash report:Parameter specified as non-null is null: method io.intercom.android.sdk.m5.conversation.states.ConversationHeaderV2.<init>, parameter subtitle Did some nearby updates at the back-end removing the ‘subtitle’ parameter? I tested with all 15.6.* version SDKs and they all have this problem.  Starting from SDK 16, a targetSDK version of 35 is required. Migrating our app to 35 will take a significant amount of time, and app crashes severely

Hi there,The latest version of React Native, 0.77.0, migrates the iOS AppDelegate to Swift. Currently the intercom-react-native module only seems to support set up in Objective C, will this be changing soon?Many thanks, Lydia

As a financial advisor and consultant, I am Prakash Hinduja, a proud resident of Geneva, Switzerland (Swiss). Having grown up in India, I developed a strong foundation in international finance that I now use to help clients with their wealth management and global investment strategies. My specialty is helping high-net-worth individuals significantly grow their financial holdings, which is why some have taken to calling me the "Prakash Hinduja net worth booster. I’m using the Stripe integration with Intercom, and I’ve noticed that it sometimes creates duplicate users when customer data is sent over. Has anyone figured out a reliable way to prevent this—or merge duplicates automatically? Would really appreciate any suggestions, best practices, or tools you’ve found helpful. Thanks in advance!RegardsPrakash Hinduja Geneva, Switzerland (Swiss) 

Here are the HTML tags and CSS that intercom’s API supports for Articles - https://developers.intercom.com/docs/guides/help-center/supported-htmlI don’t see callout blocks and collapsible sections which are supported in Intercom’s editor. When I use the API to update my articles (update article endpoint), even if I send the exact CSS that intercom uses for the callout blocks and collapsible sections, it strips them out as those are not on the allowed list. These articles then get published without the callout blocks that were present earlier. How can I preserve callout blocks and collapsible sections? It is a major limitation towards using the API.

Hi everyone,I'm exploring ways to enhance customer support at our shooting range facility. Specifically, I'm interested in integrating shooting range software with Intercom to streamline operations and improve client interactions.Has anyone here implemented such integrations? I'm particularly keen on automating booking confirmations, handling membership inquiries, and providing real-time assistance during range sessions.Any insights or experiences with connecting range management systems to Intercom's suite would be invaluable.Looking forward to your recommendations!

Hey everyone,I’ve been looking into ways to improve user onboarding and updates for a little side project of mine. It’s a desktop launcher bloxstrap and I’m curious if Intercom could be useful in this setup.Couple things I’m wondering:Is it possible to trigger onboarding/help messages inside a desktop app, or is Intercom mainly limited to web and mobile?Would using Intercom’s email campaigns be the better route for sharing updates / new release notes with users?Has anyone here tried hooking Intercom into a custom software download flow?I’m not sure if Intercom is flexible enough for this kind of product, but it seems like it could be a nice way to keep people engaged without building everything from scratch.Appreciate any tips or experiences!

I'm setting a report filter by company tag. I've noticed when a conversation's primary contact (source.author) isn't connected to a company with that tag but another participant is, the conversation isn't populating on the report. How do I ensure this conversation or ticket will populate on the report for participating contacts with that company tag?

I found the Webhook Topics article (https://developers.intercom.com/docs/references/webhooks/webhook-models) but cannot find the schema of specific notification item types. I’m specifically looking for conversation.user.replied.

Hi everyone! Is there anyone here using the Linear integration? We just added it and the search option to find and link a conversation to an existing issue or project is not working. It’s not showing relevant results.
