I put a filter on the tag field, let's say the tag name is "Feature X", and set the date to last 4 weeks.Will it show me all the conversations that are tagged as "Feature X" in the last 4 weeks? I tested it by tagging one conversation and see if it shows up but it didn't. Is there a waiting time until it shows up on the reports?Thanks in advance 🙂

I would like to use from REST API features such as queries for searching conversations however our API version is 1.0 and so we'd need to upgrade it.  I am wondering whether changing the API version will cause any breaking changes in the intercom app.  FYR this is what I'm talking about: https://developers.intercom.com/intercom-api-reference/v1.0/reference#get-a-single-conversation & https://developers.intercom.com/intercom-api-reference/reference#search-for-conversations As you can see, V2.3 allows queries in searching for conversation where we'll search by the user id  

Is there a way to reply to a conversation via API without notifying the associated user/contact (e.g. sending e-mails)? It looks like Intercom has some logic as replying via API sometimes does and sometimes does not trigger an email.

We start our conversations in a general support team folder. We then occasionally send tickets to other teams for more help. If we run a responsiveness report and filter by the second team that the ticket was forwarded to, will the report only show responsiveness while the ticket was assigned to that team, or will responsiveness while it was in another team folder be included in the report?

Is it possible to make creating a Zendesk ticket before closing the chat?🤔

I am curious if this feature was added, because ii saw some threads where was mentioned that is possible to add this feature in future releases

I am using the Ruby API and the following code gets an error:" (Custom attribute 'kamil_attribute_console' does not exist)" user_id = 1 intercom_query = intercom.contacts.search('query': {'field': 'external_id', 'operator': '=', 'value': "#{user_id}"}) contact = intercom_query.first contact.custom_attributes = {"kamil_attribute" => "here-iam-update-me"} intercom.contacts.save(contact)  

I made an app that post messages into conversations using the Intercom API, and I want those messages to come from a bot/operator, not from the contact nor the admin. Here is a screenshot of an app that posted such a message, but I cannot find how to achieve this in the API docs… Thanks for your help! 

I am not looking to measure how many conversations are resolved by one team member. I am trying to report how many users reach out multiple times with in a week in order to track whether or not their issues are being resolved the first time they reach out.

So far, I just have the Click Me example working, but ready to start bring back information from NetSuite. I see where the initialize is sending the request payload, but my understanding from the Canvas Kit documentation is that it would also send the Contact information as part of that payload, but the only payload I'm seeing is the {admin_id, app_id, conversation_id, inbox_app_id, and user_id}. I could work with the user_id and get the email address from there to search NetSuite, but it be easier to have the email address already. Basically, it'd be similar to the Shopify app as in displaying if the User already has cases present in NetSuite or even is present in NetSuite, and display that information on the conversation. Any thoughts, ideas, on how best to proceed?Let me know if you need more info?

I'm building my app with Intercom for Cordova (https://developers.intercom.com/installing-intercom/docs/cordova-phonegap-installation and I'm having the following error IntercomBridge.m:118:15: No known class method for selector 'hideMessenger' Does anyone have the same issue? Notes:<plugin name="cordova-plugin-intercom" version="~9.1.0" />"cordova-ios": "^6.1.1",

Hi all,  I've just set up the HubSpot app so it can send Intercom leads and conversations into our HubSpot account.  The leads are sent over perfectly. However, no conversations are being sent at all.  I've been following the documentation here: https://www.intercom.com/help/en/articles/2128216-hubspot-app-send-leads-and-conversations-to-hubspot/p> I've enabled this Intercom activity filter here as well:  But if I create a new conversation in Intercom, it is still not sent to HubSpot. Any help with this would be massively appreciated!  Mike

Why I and my team are not getting notification when a customer comes on live chat? We have all the notification settings ticked under My account > Notifications. We generally look at slack channel to see who came on chat and then view on intercom.

Like the exact time a teammate came online, and went offline

Hi guys, We are having an issue with Intercom's chat on a react-native app, on IOS. The chat works perfectly fine just until you open a modal view. After opening and closing it, if you try to open the chat the text field will be missing, so users won't be able to reach us. There is also a weird UI glitch showing the textfield coming from the top sometimes, and suddenly disappearing. We are using this react-native-intercom library fro the implementation, and the issue has been reproduced in both IOS 13 and 14 beta, on both an Iphone 6s and Iphone Xr. Please, find attached a video showing the weird behaviour. As you can see, the chat works as expected in the first 3 attempts. Then, after opening and closing the Navigation modal, the chat UI is missing its text field. Does anyone ever experienced anything similar? Any workaround? We have been trying to debug this with no luck. Thanks in advance for your time 🙂   

I'm developing android app using intercom (React native android). Currently I'm facing problem that's intercom doesn't update for new message comming. Only update when I open conversation from launcher or kill the app and open again. Please help

I received a security alert from Google Play Console when I uploaded a recent app build. The issue is caused by: io.intercom.android.sdk.utilities.IntentUtils.safelyOpenIntent Attached is a screenshot showing the issue.

In INTERCOM iuas7kkt we are unable to connect to INTERCOM from Android apps, we dont have this problem with Web or iOS. We see a difference here, in settings/security. What we are missing in Android, please? Kind regards. https://app.intercom.com/a/apps/iuas7kkt/settings/security/p>

We are implementing the Intercom widget on our website using react app. Everything is kinda working fine, but we are facing with this weird state on the application:We have a page for the user to change their name and email, and we want to show that new information on the widget.We have a message that greet the user with "Hi {username}" and when the user change its name on our app, the message is still using the old name.We are doing a `window.Intercom('update', { name: newName, email: newEmail })` and it reply with 200 OK and if I check the Intercom panel it has the "newName", but for some reason, it is still showing the old name on the widget. Is there anything we can do?

Hi, I receive this message from you .' [OAUTH FLOW} In the loom video, you shared the app functionality, but we need to see the full end-to-end flow, including installation of the app with oauth, the end-to-end experience and functionality (as shown already) and uninstallation of the app. ' How do I do . there is no docs about this. if i install from the developer hub no oauth flow trigger.

We have mentors who go over our clients (students) homework. I want them to be able to initiate chats with a student if they have a note about a specific homework task hey submitted. (i.e. "your answer to question 13 is incomplete"). Mentors have users in our Intercom (they are team members), but I want the mentors to be able to launch the chat from the UI they use to check students homework rather than go into intercom look up the user and initiate a chat.  So I want them to be able to click a button next to a task they are checking, which will pop up either the messenger or any other way to send a message, where the user is already set (based on the email of the student I will pass to Intercom) and the task name/number included in the default text. Is there a way to achieve this natively, via an integration or via API?  

I'd like to add 100+ users to a tagged group but as they already exist on our intercom account I'm worried they will be duplicated (and receive multiple emails). Is there a simpler way of doing this rather than me searching for each individual person and tagging them? I have a document with all of the emails I need.

We have the Salesforce Inbox App installed. Can I customize which fields from the Salesforce Account show up in the app in the Intercom Inbox?

We have Zendesk & Intercom working side by side and at this point, we are creating tickets from Intercom to Zendesk about specific conversations. Now I am thinking if it would be possible to use only Intercom but before I go any deeper I would like to know how I could have all the customer data from Zendesk to Intercom? In Zendesk we have a wide history of customer tickets and data and of course, I wouldn´t want that to disappear. We have tickets in Zendesk that are not in Intercom at all. So is this kind of integration possible and how? Tanks in advance! 🙏

How do I track and report on links that have been engaged with like: phone numbers, urls or email addresses within Intercom?
