Will Fin ever have the ability to reply to a customer’s question with a screenshot or potentially a video? It is good at reviewing what we have and describing it but it would be very helpful to share the actual image (especially in a navigation question scenario).

Currently when syncing with Confluence, the only visible sources are those contained within ‘Pages’. Anything that’s in a folder or subfolder is hidden and so cannot be located and used for FIN or CoPilot. Is there a workaround for this that doesn’t mean we have to remove everything from the folders and have 1000 individual pages for our knowledge base? Has anyone found a workaround that isn’t too time consuming?

After I complete the information to start a free trial, and verifying my email account, it return a “403 Forbidden: Workspace Suspended” tips, and after that, every time I click the “Start free trial” button, it return this.How could I start a new free trial?The Screenshot of the tips 

To give you a better context, we have 4 brands across some of our markets within Europe and the Americas.Now, one of the Brands is present is all these countries, which for each individual market we have had to create a separate Brand on Intercom, associated to a Help Centre, linked to an email address, etc.Would be great to have a way to keep them organized, having one brand and branches if the brand has presence in one or more countries, this to help us keep it organized, since we are currently moving and growing, giving presence of our brands in other markets. Any suggestions are always welcome!

Hi, I have already read your support articles regarding not receiving push notifications on Android and have executed everything suggested, but I am still not receiving push notifications when we receive tickets or answers in our Intercom inbox. The message settings and app permissions have been set correctly, I have disabled battery stamina mode completely, I have manually indicated that there should be no battery restrictions on the app and I have installed ‘AutoStart Manager’ and I have added the app.But I still do not receive push notifications.I have a Android version 14 installed and my handset is a Sony Xperia 10 IV XQ-CC54.Can you help please?

How have you gone about it? We are currently using Salesforce Service Cloud as our primary Support ticketing solution and have tried Intercom's out of the box integration. However, its hard to get chat transcripts to sync properly to the CASE opposed to being a task with a CONTACT. Eventually, we would like to use Intercom as an interface for customers to easily create cases on their own, as an alternative to Custom/Resolution bots and Chat based triage - which right now is very manual (as Cases are created from the Inbox by an Employee). Also, we are looking into building out some webhooks to sync Account based details more easily, as the User centric model doesn't work well for our B2B product. Anyone in the same boat, that may have similar use cases, that have built out a solution? Curious to hear from others.

We’re currently building out a new onboarding program for our customer support team, and we would really like to integrate test ticketing/conversations as a module to the program. I’m curious if anyone else has tackled this kind of project before and has advice on the best way to implement this with Intercom?I’ve previously worked on Zendesk, where we had a script to import our base test tickets and assign to each of our new hires, who would then work the tickets as normal w/ training & mentors acting as customers.With Intercom, I’m hoping there’s a similar functionality we can achieve with conversations, though I haven’t been able to find a solid solution. Seems like we could potentially setup a specific inbox and use emails in our prod instance, but curious if anyone has come up with a different/better solution to achieve this. 

I have a “notify Slack” workflow that’s triggered when a customer sends any message, but I can only see the customer and teammate messages in the conversation. Is there a way to see the Fin responses as well? This would help us a lot with triaging, and improving the chatbot responses as well. 

Hello, We created a custom attribute with the list type called `Channel Networks`. When we try to update it via the API we get back the following error:```{  type: 'error.list',  request_id: 'REDACTED',  errors: [    {      code: 'nested_custom_attributes',      message: 'Cannot submit an array as a custom attribute value'    }  ]}```Other custom attributes work fine, just list/array type ones fail.```const respIntercom = await fetch(`https://api.intercom.io/contacts/${contact_id}`,{method: 'PUT',headers: {'Content-Type': 'application/json','Intercom-Version': '2.12',Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.INTERCOM_ACCESS_TOKEN}`},body: JSON.stringify({"name": userData.user.name + " TEST","phone": userData.user.phone,"last_seen_at": userData.user.last_online,"signed_up_at": userData.user.created_at,"custom_attributes": {"ACME": userData.user.acme,"Channel Networks": ["Channel 1", "Channel 2"],}})});```

Hi,I wanted to know if there is any possible way to trigger a callback request through setting a conversation attribute ‘last_inbound_call_estate’ to ‘Awaiting callback’. As all I can seem to find is that this data attribute is only accessible through the phone workflow and can only be added and modify by Fin though the workflow.It would be nice if there was an option to set the ‘last_inbound_call_estate’ to ‘Awaiting callback’ for any conversation so the active team members would automatically get the call in their inbox, just like when they request a callback through the phone workflow, but without them having to actively call… Wether it is though API or through a messenger workflow it would be nice to integrate.

 Issue DescriptionWe're experiencing signal handler conflicts between Firebase Crashlytics and Intercom SDK in our app. During app initialization, we see multiple warnings in the console:[Crashlytics] The signal SIGABRT has a non-Crashlytics handler (IntercomSDK_sentrycrashcm_signal_getAPI).

The v2.13 REST API introduces support for creating, updating, and reading custom object instances. But, the documentation does not say anything about updating references – either on those instances themselves, or references to custom objects as custom attributes on people.Without the ability to associate custom objects with contacts or conversations, the API doesn’t seem very useful.I’ve tried to pass contact IDs and external IDs, and objects with an “id” key with no success, both as arrays and as simple attributes. Based on how the contacts/{id}/companies endpoint works, I’d probably expect the following to work:POST /custom_object_instancesContent-Type: application/json{"external_id": "123", "custom_attributes": {"Owner":{"id":"6602eae0ca854b5e2a01f503"}}And if the attribute support multiple people, it should support an array. Supporting objects, instead of just the ID, would allow you to support identifying references with both Intercom’s ID and external ID, so that’d be nice.I’ll n

Our chatbot widget is linked to our company's website and knowledge base. We set up a workflow for the chats to route to a chat inbox, but they are routing to our General team inbox. How do I fix this routing issue?

We use intercom messenger in our vue app. In out general components(App.vue) in initializing intercom as Intercom({ app_id: process.env.INTERCOM_APP_ID })then after getting user info from backend i call:boot({ app_id: process.env.INTERCOM_APP_ID, user_id: user.id, name: user.name, }).And finally if user log out i call:shutdown()boot({ app_id: process.env.INTERCOM_APP_ID })Script works but when user opens messages in tab after logout and then log in, it see his username and everything except for his messages. It doesn’t showing. But if open widget only after log in in shows because i see spinner so there going fetch for messages. If user reload page also works. Problem appears after log out and log in

When we (german-based company) use a ticket attribute with da date value, the ticket events record a different time. In the summer time, the time difference is +2 hours and in winter time +1 hour as Intercom treats everything as GMT. So when we record appointments in a ticket attribute, it will always be wrong for our time zone. Also, we wanted to snooze ticket according to the timestamp in a ticket attribut. That results in the same incorrect time and is really confusing. It would be really helpful if this would be fixed.

I am working on new Fin Tasks where I want to create a branches with conditions that are dependent on the results of a custom action. Can anyone help me understand how to build this? For example if a Custom Action returns [X] then follow this path, and if Custom Action returns [Y] follow a different branch

My security team is worried about allowing customers to send us image files in messenger. Is this a valid concern? Is there a way to get malware through messenger? Is anyone here restricting your file uploads?This is my third company that I've been at that uses intercom, and I've never heard this concern expressed before. So while I don't want to dismiss it, the documentation feels pretty clear about how safe this is. Plus, I need customers to be able to send us screenshots.  Thanks in advance. 

Hi, Is there an Intercom integration with Looker Studio? I’ve seen an older post in which people seemed to run into issues with the API documentation. I wonder if there have been any updates or if there is an easier way now to integrate both. Thanks.

Hi team, I’m trying to fetch user information with external API. The example response was like : { "list": [ { "customer": { "id":"123", "first_name": "Darth", "last_name": "Vader", "email":"darthvader@deathstar.com" } } ]}I can see the example response in Data Access but since the first layer is a list, I can’t mapping that in Object Mapping. Could you suggest how should I mapping these data? Thank you. 🙏    

My team is attempting to calculate conversation metrics in Power BI, using the data piped into our data lake.  We’re attempting to count the number of replies across all conversations over a particular time period. I know the part_author is “Admin,” but what conversation_part values constitute a reply?  We want to match the metrics provided via the in-app reporting tool.

Hi all!We’re currently running into some issues related to Workflows that are triggered from calls coming in.What I’m not able to work out is how to successfully automate conversations created from phone calls. Specifically, How can I automatically close conversations associated with calls that were abandoned in the queue How can I associate SLAs with conversations associated with calls that have a follow-up action – e.g. listening to a voicemail / calling a customer back.With 1 it doesn’t seem possible to have a catch-all action for the unmatched paths. For example, in one of my phone workflows I have:   A: Is an IVR PromptC: Is a hold and assignB: Is voicemailIdeally I’d want to be able to target the drop-offs with a ‘close conversation’ actionWith 2, I’ve tried to add to an SLA workflow based on tags being added to the conversation, however it doesn’t seem to be triggering – I’m assuming because the tags are being added via a Workflow rather than a teammate.  Happy to be pointed in

Are there any plans to have macOS SDK in the near future? Specifically I want to use it for embedding the help center inside the app.

When we search a customers unique order number in Intercom, we would expect to see a list of all conversations, tickets, side conversations where this number appeared.However, when you search in Intercom it will often not show information that lives only in the right side details panel/conversation attributes, or in certain fields the agent has filled out inside a ticket, or that the customer has entered with the bot/conversation events.Can you help us understand why it works this way?Our former CRM had no issues searching ticket/ conversation history and it would be easy for agents to double check all points of contact that had mentioned a key word, order number, etc.  There is an additional search filter to toggle for Order Number, but this also doesn’t find all the locations of this order number, and is multiple clicks, slowing agents down who are already multi tasking.At present we’ve found searching has become such an unpredictable function that agents no longer feel confident in
