Hi everyone,I’m Darshan Hiranandani, need help with setting up multiple inbound email addresses in Intercom for different support teams. We have two teams, one for French-speaking clients and another for German-speaking clients, and each team has its own email address:france-support@company.com (for France) germany-support@company.com (for Germany)Currently, we forward emails sent to germany-support@company.com to Intercom's default inbound address, and everything works fine. The email creates a new chat in the German support team's inbox.However, we want the same setup for the French support team. Ideally, we want the following behavior:If a client in France sends an email to france-support@company.com, it creates a new chat in the French support team's inbox in Intercom. If a client in Germany sends an email to germany-support@company.com, it creates a new chat in the German support team's inbox in Intercom.I’m wondering if it’s possible to create separate inbound email addresses for
Can I add a note to a company via the API?
Hi Team,I’m Darshan Hiranandani, hope you're all doing well! We're currently facing a challenge with transferring larger-than-100MB files via Intercom, as its built-in file upload feature is limited to 100MB. For now, we’ve been using Google Drive as a workaround, but the process of manually creating and sharing folders with customers is inconvenient, and many customers struggle with accessing the Google Drive links.We also looked into SendSafely, but it seems overpriced for our needs, requiring a minimum of 15 users.I wanted to reach out and ask if anyone has found a better solution or workaround for transferring larger files securely with customers inside Intercom. Ideally, we need something that’s easy to use, secure, and cost-effective for our small team of 3.Any suggestions or tools that you are using to handle this? I’d really appreciate your input!Thanks in advance!RegardsDarshan Hiranandani
I am currently handling one of my client's projects where I have to engage with the audience and customers of 3 different cities in the USA. It is more commonly about medical consultations, So I am looking for a platform where I can engage my client’s customers according to their location and plan their consultations according to customers’ location.Should I go for it or not? Will I be able to engage customers according to their locations? Is there any plan of Intercom that can sound beneficial for this specific business?
We’re using the Javascript API client to create a conversation programmatically when users sign up to our app.We’d like all messages of the conversation to each go through SMS. Is that possible, provided that the SMS channel is set up correctly in Intercom?I’m not seeing any way to specify a channel in the `intercom.conversations.create` method, or even in `intercom.messages.create`.Is this a dead end?Thanks!
Is it possible to force the agents in our system to tag conversations before they close them? For example if an agent were to attempt to close the conversation without tagging it, it would send a message saying 'Please tag this message first!' and it would prevent them from closing the conversation
Is this possible to change the text / design used in the outgoing email to customers when they open a ticket via email?I especially don’t like the wording used by the default system.
Any tips on having people click on a dropdown and make a selection in a product tour? Right now clicking is just flashing the dropdown quickly. I can't advance to the drop-down selected, and then pick.
Is there a way to scroll on the product tour? A couple items on my tour require scrolling to the right to make it work
It could include a check box list format in the attribute options, so that it is possible to select several options.

Hello, I'm creating my product tours and I have the following question: I have a logical path that my end-users should engage with my product tours: First they must do the product tour A, then the B and then the C. I've write them in a way that at the last step of the product tour A, a post type step, I give a link that directs the end user to start the product tour B ( the url with the product tour code at the end: "?product_tour_id=217376"). And at the product tour B, just like the A, I created the same last step, but giving the product tour C url. In that way, when finishing the product tour A, the end-user clicks on the link to the B, and when finishing it, clicks on the link to do the C, just the way I want. But I noticed that when clicking in the product tour B link, at the end of the A, the last step of the A stills appears on the screen of the URL of the product tour B, instead of starting the tour B. How can I get this done? I'd really like to make this w
I'm trying to provide product tours as a choice in the form of hyperlink within a task of checklists, but because the workspace portion of the site is a variable, it isn't translating. Am I missing something, or is this just not possible as of now?From within the product tour settings:https://cloud.precisely.com/workspace/{{custom_data.workspace|fallback:"0"}}/data-observability/observers/observer-detail/?product_tour_id=423036
I want to display the message count on my custom intercom launcher but I find the count is not being accurately reported by the onUnreadCountChange function until the Intercom widget is opened. When the page is loaded and the handler is initially registered it always returns 0 unread messages until the widget is opened and then it will return the correct number (in this case 2). Here’s an example of what is being logged to the handler before (on load) and after the intercom launcher is clicked. Once clicked the handler receives the wrong number of messages (1) before finally returning the correct number of unread messages (2).import Intercom, { shutdown, onUnreadCountChange, update, showNewMessage, hide } from "@intercom/messenger-js-sdk";// rest of react setup ....useEffect(() => { const initialize = () => { Intercom({ app_id: INTERCOM_APP_ID, name:<redacted> created_at: <redacted>, custom_launcher_selector: '#support',
Hello, The feature “Let Fin introduce itself” is only available in the Fin over Chat settings but it isn’t available in the FinAI configuration for workflow. It would be better to have this feature (even if it’s disabled by default) so that visitors/users know that they can ask a question.
We activated the “If customer has been unresponsive “ workflow in our chat conversations. How can we interrupt this workflow in cases where an agent needs to snooze the conversation because they need time to research or they need to consult another department? This is what we are trying to achieve:Agent will send a message asking for more time to solve the problem Agent will snooze the conversation Either of these can happen: a). Conversation will automatically unsnoozed and will stay on Open Inbox until a teammate picks it up b). Agent will manually unsnoozed the conversation and proceed to assist the customerWe are trying to avoid the scenario below where we tell the customer to wait, and yet we send them a follow-up because we haven’t heard from them😅
Hi Everyone, I'm Sachin Duggal , and the owner of a bags manufacturing business. I’m planning to launch a new product soon and want to create a waitlist for customers who are interested in being among the first to try it. I’m aiming to send a message to a specific customer segment and collect a "yes" or "no" response for joining the waitlist. Then, I’d like to prioritize the users who clicked "yes" first and release the product gradually to that group.Has anyone set up something like this before? I’m considering using Intercom’s method with Fin Copilot as an example. What would be the best approach to achieve this? Any tools, integrations, or tips for managing a beta waitlist effectively?Thanks in advance for your help!Sachin Duggal

Hi all, some of our clients feel uncomfortable with rating conversations for both Fin AI and human supports every time they open the conversations with us. Is there any way we could turn that off for specific users?
Hello,Is there any method or setting to have Fin provide a shorter answer initially, and give the user the option to ask for it to elaborate and provide a more detailed response? Currently, the bot is providing answers that are too long and overwhelming. Any solutions or adjustments we could make to get closer to this goal would be appreciated!Thanks,Jason
