Is there a way to get more error details for canvas? Trying to test out canvas and I get an error "Something went wrong while trying to set up that card, please try again" All i did was configrue the url, which returns the json from https://developers.intercom.com/canvas-kit-reference/reference/canvas and I'm stuck on the first step.....  I used chrome console and I see that the error_code is third_party_malformed_response_error Here is the URL I'm using for the initialize step - https://spacedrift.azurewebsites.net/api/intercom/initialize

You mention in the Signed Notifications section in the webhooks docs (https://developers.intercom.com/building-apps/docs/webhook-model#section-signed-notifications that the X-Hub-Signature is a sha1 signature of the payload.body and the client secret. Could you please confirm the order both strings are concatenated (payload.body + client_secret) or (client_secret + payload.body) before you pass through sha1()?  Although I've tried both options I'm yet to get a match, but before I look into the possibility of my payload body causing the issue I'd like to get confirmation on the order the two strings should be concatenated. I'm attempting to pass the concatenated string through a sha1() method to do a string comparison with the header value from the request?  Is the usual method to confirm signature or is there something I've missed?

I cannot find a way to export or find data on regular "tagging".

Hola👋  We have intercom integration which is used by our customers and use intercom for ourselves too. Currently we a developing a 'delete account' feature to become GDPR-compliant. So when user in our system requests delete of his theirs data we need to delete it from intercom as well. I assumed that using Access Token for requests gives you all the permissions but seems like I was wrong. When I try to delete a company I get "token_unauthorized". There is a list of permissions in Authentications but AFAIK if I enable delete permissions there they will be requested form our customers who installed our integration too. Is there a way to generate different Permission scopes for API key (internal use) and oAuth (external use)? Thanks in advance for any tips 

I already integrated Intercom with WAB via Octopods. But now, I want those conversations to be handled by a Bot or at least to have some options and 'filter' them out before transfering them to a real agent. Do you have any documentation on IBM Watson?

I'd like to know what backup security there is from Intercom side. If say for example our users were to be deleted by accident. Would this information be stored or backed up on your end and how does this work exactly? Thanks

Hey, this is a question about the conversation_part list field, If I recall , I used to be able to receive the entire thread of messages within a conversation but now I only see the a single message in conversation_parts no matter the length of the thread

I'm trying to get Intercom to forward conversations to Zendesk as tickets. Both using the ready-made app integration and Zapier, attachments work but they load the attachment content from Intercom's CDN and the link includes an expiry timestamp (e.g. expires=1633516164, which is an unix epoch timestamp). This expiry timestamp only allows viewing the image 30 minutes after. Is there any way to bypass this limitation? We're not able to bring the Zendesk users to Intercom so that they'd be able to view the conversations there. Thank you.  

In Contact, you will see this recent page views,But it seems that recent page views is all what we can see, Is there any way to have a report/ dashboard that shows all the recent page views of a user for the last 7/30/90 days and so on. I meant in more detail and can be interacted. Thanks

Does calling `registerUser(withUserId)` or overwrite any user attributes previously set such as the languageOverride?

Even the example from the help guide (yes, I did enter the API token) doesn't work:curl https://api.intercom.io/articles -X GET -H 'Authorization:Bearer <Your access token>' -H 'Accept:application/json' -H 'Content-Type: application/json' Returns the following error:{"type":"error.list","request_id":"001iuuadd47ehouu9ndg","errors":[{"code":"unauthorized","message":"Access Token Invalid"}]}

We are handling a review process via Intercom, ie. users request a review, we automatically create a conversation and then all discussions about the review should be done inside this specific conversation. now we want to add a button that opens the conversation but I only see a way to create a new conversion or list all open conversations, but I don't see an API call to open a specific conversation (even when its closed). ie. something like Intercom('showConversation', 123)

I am trying to report on the number of touchpoints (average) that a segment of customers receives in a specific time period - the type of data displayed on a Contact Record under "recent content" + conversations. Any ideas on how to report on touchpoints?

Hey I'm trying to integrate Intercom with the current React Native app we're working on and while it's working perfectly fine on Android, the iOS keeps crashing. Here are the error details:*** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: '+[Intercom setReactNativeVersion:]: unrecognized selector sent to class 0x112eaf318' terminating with uncaught exception of type NSExceptionP.S. I tried adding "react native" as one of the forum question topics but it wasn't available. 

We are building a platform that helps segment customer feedback. We are wanting to sync the custom attributes from Intercom into our application. We would like to know when custom attributes change on a contact. Is there a webhook for this? or should be periodically poll the API ?

We've got quite a few leads from our CPC campaign but doesn't look like Intercom's default UTM is tracking them all. Is this something that's automatic or do we have to implement something for this?

How do I set my Default sender address to be change to 'Use teammate's Intercom account email address'?

Hi, since a few months there's the ability to do more with company tags, so now I'm wondering if a webhook topic for if a tag is added, would be possible to add :)

Hi, We are having the exact same issue as described by a user here: https://forum.intercom.com/s/question/0D52G00004hzX8fSAE/ios-sdk-setdevicetoken-method-crash/p> Since this was 7 months ago, is there any update on this (other than the workaround to manually handle notifications)? Is this still a known issue that is being worked on?  We have just integrated the iOS SDK into our app and are having the exact same issue/crash come through for quite a few of our users. Again, we cannot reproduce ourselves manually. Thanks

Our webhooks is receiving requests from any conversation that originates from anywhere, even outside our messaging app. Our application keeps getting requests that we don't want. Is there a way to configure this to only get hits based on a particular service? To clarify, we have a messaging application that talks to agents on Intercom. Turns out, even if agents on Intercom are talking to users that do not originate from our app, we get pinged. We just want to isolate the webhook to only receive messages to our application.
