Intercom chat "Couldn't send" error when any user tries to upload or paste an image


Hi there, for some time we’ve had an issue when a user tries to upload (via the attachment button) or paste an image into the chat, it instantly shows a “Couldn’t send” error, as shown below. I’d appreciate any help in resolving this issue.

Hey @Nicholas Millard 👋

Larissa here from Intercom Support.

We would need more details in order to investigate the issue.

- Is this happening only with one user?

- What is the website URL the Messenger is installed on?

Also, could you please ask the user to disable any browser extension as this can cause some funky behaviour and see if works?

Hope to hear from you soon!

Hi Larissa, 

  • It is happening with multiple users over the last few months.
  • It occurs on https://www.fusion-reactor.com/ but also occurs inside our product where the chat is integrated.
  • I can ask users going forward who mention it, as I mentioned it’s happening to multiple if not all users across multiple browsers.

Let me know if I can provide anything else.

Hi @Nicholas Millard 

Jennifer here from Customer Support 

This needs more of a private investigation so I’ve escalated this conversation to our Support team.

They’ll come back to you as soon as they are available.

We also have the exact same issue.

Did you manage to solve it? If so, please share what was the issue, maybe we encounter the same issue.

I am able to reproduce this issue after having a few of our customers let me know they cannot attach images.

@Jennifer K @Nicholas Millard  Did you ever get this resolved?  I see a few other users are having issues and I wondered if maybe it might be a conflict with some other code in the site or app that might be creating the issue?

For those having the issue, do you have the same issue if you try to launch the chat messenger directly from the Help Center and not your own website or app?   This might help rule out 3rd party code that’s on the website that could be interfering with that process.  Just a random idea, but hopefully the Intercom team has been able to pinpoint the issue internally and get some answers for you!

 


Any resolution here? We are also having the same issue
