Hi! I'm able to start tours using its corresponding URL: Ex: https://mydomain.com/page?product_tour_id=*** and using a JavaScript call too: Intercom('startTour', ***); Nevertheless, if the tour is part of a series, it seems that it doesn't work. In the JS Console I see a network call to: POST https://api-iam.intercom.io/messenger/web/tours/***/fetch but the response is 404 - Not Found. Is it possible to start out a tour programmatically if the tour is defined inside a series? Thanks!

Hello! I'm using Squarespace w/ MemberSpace Plugin and using Zapier to pass user data to Intercom. It's mostly working except Company Name is coming in as Company id — any hints?

Hello, I am looking to integrate intercom -> salesforce but would like customer's query to appear as a unique Case in salesforce and not a lead. Is this possible? Many thanks.

We have a ticketing system we use at my company and I am looking for a way to Automatically send a conversation from intercom over to it and have a ticket created in that system. Is there anyone who has done something similar to this?

Hi, I'm looking to integrate Discord with Intercom. We added the intercom Facebook app/integration and noticed it restricted the inbox message input to text/emoticon options (see attached image).We'd like to restrict the message input for our discord app/integration as well, however, we cannot find any references to the message input in the API/canvas kit. Thanks, Justin Luce

I have to call an api in my app using canvas kit.

I need help resetting my client secret, I didn't see (or find) a way to do it from the app console, I'm guessing a support rep needs to help. Thanks!

How do you derive the active now status for a user? This is shown via a "green dot" next to their icon in the contacts list. I would like this info when using the API.

Hi,I am trying to use an event from my app to update user or company data on their profile.For example I want to fire the event "add apple" and this would update the "apple count" on the user or company profile.I know how to send an event using Intercom('trackEvent', 'event name'); and I know how that I can update user data using Intercom('update', userdata); but I would like to use the event itself to update the data.Is this somehow possible ?

Does anyone know of a document that details how the tables join together. What I thought would be straight forward seems a little strange as you end up with lots of many to many relationships.

Hey Connectors! It's time for Fix-It Friday once again! It's your chance to help out your fellow Connectors with their burning questions. Can you help these folks out? Is it possible to update the anonymous_id parameter of the contact object?Schema for table relationshipsShare Product Tours within a Series as additional help during Inbox conversations. Happy fixing!

Hi there everyone, At the moment, under the hood, the Intercom messenger is sending requests with an anonymous_id field when it is tracking Leads on our website. Is there a way of updating this anonymous_id property ? At the moment when an event is tracked it makes an API call to POST https://api-iam.intercom.io/messenger/web/eventsand I can see part of the request payload:I believe this anonymous_id also corresponds to one of the Intercom tracking cookies: intercom-id-<APP_ID> and also the visitorId ? I'm trying to update the value of this anonymous_id but not sure how to accomplish this. Do I need to overwrite the value of the Intercom cookie in order to achieve this ? Some help would be much appreciated. Cheers

Since there are only 2 endpoints = initialize and submit, how do I create multiple canvases for my app? My app has 2 forms, filling the first leads to second, and filling that displays a message. Since thats 3 canvases in all, I'm wondering how it's done.

Hey there, hate to turn to the forums for this kind of request but my messages through the intercom widget have gone unread for 2 days. Our team submitted an app 15 days ago and haven't yet received a review. It was a very thorough submission, so I'd be surprised if there was something we left out that made it hard to review. We're hoping to launch our product soon, and Intercom integration is a huge selling point to our pilot customers. Is there someone I can get in touch with about getting it looked at? Hopefully you can look up my app review submission from my account here, but if you need more information to find it please let me know.

When I invoke the contact search API, I get the following error response. { "type": "error.list", "request_id": "0009s379b118psj1f100", "errors": [ { "code": "invalid_document", "message": "either_email_or_user_id_present validation failed" } ]} Does anyone know what has gone wrong here?

I'm trying to detect user activity with no success. Help please!

Hey Connectors! Something to which I hold myself accountable, but haven't yet publicised within the community, is a response time SLA of two working days. This means that I try to ensure that every question in Interconnected has been answered within at least two working days. If you ask a question in Interconnected and you haven't received at least one response within that timeframe, feel free to tag me in a reply and I will do my best to make sure your question is answered.

The Intercom <> Zapier integration allows sending messages as a User, but (possibly) not as a Lead. We have a Webflow form that sends messages via Zapier to Intercom, but we're getting a "User not found with this email". The steps I took are:Gather Webflow form info as a triggerCreate a Lead in ItercomSend message from the form via that Leadend I tried replacing Lead with User and it still returns an error. I tried adding a 5 minute pause in case the user creation didn't propagate in time and it didn't work. Not fully expecting Intecom to be able to help with what's very likely a 3rd party issue, but Zapier wasn't able to help so perhaps there's another user who figured this out in the past.

I am trying to search in conversations but using your example: I get a 400 "Query body must contain a query hash". When using contact search everything works fine

Auto tagging capabilities? Is this possible in Intercom, and what are the entryways for those automatic tags to be applied?

Encountered a new crash on our latest release. So far there's only been one crash but because we set our outbound rules to a set of people I'm just slightly concerned if it might be a bigger issue if we don't actually have the filters. Some more details below: Currently version of the app in the store has:Intercom SDK - 8.1.0Compiled on XCode 12.4Support iOS 12.0 and higher. The error is occurring on iOS version 12.1.1 iPad 6th gen (our app only supports iPhone) Here's the full stack trace:Crashed: com.apple.main-thread0 MyApp          0x10325a590 +[ICMAppEnvironmentChecker stringForDeviceTokenEnvironment:] + 829241 MyApp          0x10329659c -[ICMDeviceData init] + 1851722 MyApp          0x10323c1fc +[ICMHTTPClient updateUserWithUserAttributes:newSession:sentFromBackground:carouselVisible:success:error:] + 2649723 MyApp          0x103227d10 +[ICMHTTPBridge updateUser:] + 1817924 MyApp          0x10324ab50 +[ICMBridge ping] + 188605 CoreFoundation         0x1ca8db94c __

Hey, Is there a way to opt out tracking if the user does not want to send data? I have a toggle in my app that allows the user to disable analytics & tracking. Once the iOS SDK initialised, is there a way to opt out tracking? I tried to use the .logout() method in the SDK but it does not work. Events and updates are still sent to Intercom (which seems to be a bug?).  For example, Mixpanel allows us to do that: https://developer.mixpanel.com/docs/swift#opting-users-out-of-tracking/p> It's great, and Intercom should offer the same.Thanks,Axel

Hello,We are running Intercom 9.3.3 on iOS.

I am trying to determine OKRs for my support team. While response time and other time-related metrics sound good, I want to focus on the quality of the conversations we have with the customers. Are there any suggestions on how to do this?
