We'd like to use this to get the email or conversation ID in a link that we can send to our system.  Something like {{ conversation_id }} I couldn't find these in any documentation - are there any secret ones?

Hello guys :),How can I turn off the email notifications of replies in-app conversations?Is it possible?

Documentation in many places is not updated and it is not aligned with the code snippets. For example, the section for Custom attributes:https://developers.intercom.com/intercom-api-reference/reference#section-request-body-parameters/p>In request body parameters, 'model' property is understood as a mandatory one. On the other hand, in CURL code snippet, it is missing, instead there is another one, not mentioned in a description, 'company'. "data_type" property in the code snippet has "options" value, which is not listed in the documentation on the left side. Also, phrase "Provide a set of hashes..." sounds odd, hash is mostly understood as non-readable representation of the input value, got from the transformation of the input value. From the context we can get a feeling that we just need to provide a set of text key/value pairs. Overall, the right working code can be get only from the test and trials, which is not very efficient, and can

I did not find it in the documentation, but it seems that we can not add values to our custom attributes in UI Admin?I tested it with Intercom 2.3:create a custom attribute using https://api.intercom.io/data_attributes/li>I had ui_writable property set to true in my request. I also tried to modify the attribute by sending "update request" with ui_writable = truestill in the UI I can not assign any value to the new attribute. Could you please help with that? Is it a limitation of custom attributes? Can they be edited in UI?

Hi there! I'd like to ask what kind of automated rules we could set to send Salesforce tasks automatically? The problem is that if we do it manually during the chat conversation, SF only sends a snippet of the conversation in the task. The full conversation transfer to SF only as its done automatically. So the question is what kind of solutions there is to trigger the app automatically during conversation as it's handled by the team, so that the whole conversation would transfer to SF? Any tips for this?

Hi,I'm trying to add intercom to my ionic app, I'm using the official plugin for intercom, it is working on IOS, but with android I'm getting `Could not get unknown property 'cdvCompileSdkVersion'` error message after building the app with ionic.

I'm making an API call to list conversations using the example on the right here: https://developers.intercom.com/intercom-api-reference/reference#list-conversations/p> But unlike the example response, the response I am getting doesn't contain statistics for the conversation. Am I doing something wrong?  Note that I already removed the '\' from the beginning of the example request which I think is there by mistake? The request runs correcltly, it's just missing parts of the conversation model. Thanks!

Hi 👋  Based on Intercom documentation: "If a teammate has been inactive in Intercom for over 5 minutes, they'll appear as 'away'" However, in our case, even after 30-40 minutes of inactivity, the teammate status not setting on Away.  During Auto Assignment, team member status is quite important. That's why I requested a feature that would control the working hours and automatically set the Away status. But before this feature becomes available, why does automatic Away status not working?

Are there any SaaS industry metrics/best practices in terms of completion percentages that we should aim for? We use our Product Tours to create a one-to-all channel to help train user during Onboarding and for Product Releases. I know that you can see on a per tour basis the number of views and completion percentage, but trying to determine the following stats on a quarterly basis:# of viewsPercent of Tour CompletedAny other useful stats Also, are there any SaaS benchmarks/best practices that Intercom can share in regards to Product Tours as well?

I'd like to be able to be notified or notify a team member when certain actions occur. In the same way that you can email a customer at specific points, I want to be able to notify an account manager when one of their customers hasnt used the platform?

We have a feature called a "To-do list" and my top Search Terms with No Result include "todo" "to-do" and "todos". When I search for "to-dos" I see in the search results that only "do" is highlighted. Are hyphens treated as whitespace, and "to" excluded due to being a common word? I see other posts requesting a hidden keyword feature or hashtags, I think that might help this situation but it also seems that since this is such a short word with a hyphen that it is difficult to find.

Hello, party ppl. I would like to start to gather customers' wishes for new features, conditions etc. There are a lot of ways to navigate this, but I would like to implement some sort of app or widget using the Intercom. Maybe, some of you had such cases and will be able to share the best practices/apps and so on. Thank you

Are there plans to allow the mobile app to insert articles in the same message as my reply to the customer? Currently I have to send my first message to them explaining the issue and then send a separate message using the article inserter. It would be nice for the app to add it to my message as it does in the Inbox on the browser.

Previously we used Slack but are migrating to MS.Teams.  While on Slack we had a web-hook style integration that allowed a Slack channel to receive and send. Now on MS.Teams we are trying to find a way of replicating the functionality. Can anyone share or help with this challenge?

We have a lot of customer who put other people in their company on CC whenever they have a query for us. When the email is forwarded from our support email to intercom inbox all the people on CC shows up on the conversation detail bar. This means that if we answer through Intercom, they will all get the email. We wish to keep them on CC and rather have the original sender only as the main recipient.

Hey everyone 👋​What is your ultimate setup for Intercom starting from a website visitor to loyal customer and advocate? Including apps you're using too perhaps.​We're redesigning ours at the mo to get more out of the tool. ​​MattDriftrock​

I'm new to the intercom so i don't know what to do. If anybody can help it's really helpful for me.

I have a chat to collect emails for a newsletter. However, it collects the email but doesn't organize it anywhere. No tag is added to show that they are on a list.  How are others using this functionality to acquire and grow their newsletter list? It is worth mentioning, we send our newsletter via MailerLite.

While we can run Articles on subdomain, its contents do not really contribute to the content of the main domain in content marketing / SEO perspective. So our idea is: Add no-index to Intercom's Help Center running at help.ourdomain.comCreate dynamic pages under ourdomain.com/help which would pull Article's contents via API into our website so they can be properly indexed. I wonder if anybody has had the same idea and successfully manged to implement it? Or perhaps there are some more reasonable workarounds.

We tested the post which recorded us as 'Opened' but even though we clicked on a video inserted in the post, it did not record as clicked. Is that not tracked as 'Clicked on post'?

As for the image, I want to know if it is possible to let people who match ‘Who will enter’ get the message without matching ‘When to enter’  (After I tagged the customers, they should get the message from this series) From what I have tried, without setting ‘When to enter’, the message won’t be sent. Is there any way I can fix that?  Thank you so much. 

Hi, our product is based in Portugal but we work with different languages. I'm working on a Series for english language customers and would like to include the date their trial expires. I'm using an attribute which sends the date in numerical values, but for some reason it shows up on our emails as text, and in Portuguese for some reason.How can I change this? Ideally I would like for the date to show up at DD/MM/YYYY, but if that's not possible at least in english, so the customers don't get confused. Thanks!

Here in Brazil we have some very considerable amount of holidays.We'd love to send messages to notify our users over the days we're not working, it would be awesome to set something like: send a chat message for users who are online on a specific date. Anyone can help me out?

Hello, we want to display a link to the Help Center on our web page so a user can click on it when he/she wants. In the same time we want to restrict the access to articles only for Users (logged in ones), without asking them again to login on Help Center page. How can we pass the login information to Help Center in this case, when Help Center is not accessed through the Messenger? Thank you.
