Hi all,After years of using Intercom to reliably email ~650 members in our organisation on a ~monthly basis, today we’ve run into a hiccup. Only ~270 members now show in the “Users” preview with no filters applied. There appears to be a new automatic filter of “Last seen less than 90 days ago” which does show in the Rules list when previewing the email, however when editing the email it doesn’t show, and therefore I can’t deselect it.FinAI support advises:“I apologize for the confusion, but the "last seen less than 90 days ago" filter is an automatic feature that can't be disabled for email messages. It's applied to ensure better engagement rates.However, if you need to include users who were last seen more than 90 days ago, you can create a specific filter for "Last seen more than 90 days ago" in your audience rules. This will allow you to target less active users if that's your goal.”I tried Fin’s suggestion of adding a filter for “more than 90 days ago” however this produces a list

I can manually extract this data from an exported conversation volume report, but is there a way to do this directly within Reports in intercom? If not, consider this a feature request.

I’m looking for a way to make sure the data in Intercom and Pipedrive stays up to date automatically. Right now, our sales team uses Pipedrive, while customer support handles conversations in Intercom. The problem is that lead details don’t always get updated, and sales reps miss important context from past conversations.I’d love to hear how others are handling this. Do you rely on manual updates, or have you found a way to sync data between the two without extra effort?

Hello, I have a custom action that is supposed to send a request to my server along with multiple url params attached.The problem is however, not ALL of the params are sent for every request. Yet, since they are declared in the Request section of Custom Actions the call fails presumably because not every param has a value. The questions are, 1.) are we able to set these params to be “optional” and I’m just missing the option? 2.) Why can’t Intercom just recognize that this param is empty, and input a null, or avoid the param all together and leave validation up to the server receiving side? AKA, my server.I just feel like this product is feature limited to the point its useless, at least for my use case. And yes, I have tried for hours to Google, watch Youtube videos, browse articles (even found this one), reach out to support (no response), and just plain ol’ trying things on my own before coming here. So don’t give me the ol’ “Search Google” non-sense. PRODUCTIVE AND SUPPORTIVE ANSWE

Hi everyone,We’re searching for a reliable method to transfer conversations from Intercom to HubSpot without losing important context. Our support team manages interactions through Intercom, but our sales team primarily uses HubSpot. Unfortunately, this separation often results in missing critical details during lead handoffs.Has anyone found a good solution to keep conversation context intact, either through automated integration or streamlined manual processes? I'd appreciate any tips or recommendations you might have!

Hello Intercom team,I’m reaching out regarding an issue where videos uploaded to chat lose their audio during processing. The preview of the video shows sound, but once uploaded, the audio is missing. The issue occurs consistently, regardless of the video source (recorded directly or uploaded from the gallery).Could you please help us investigate if this is a known issue or if there’s something we’re missing? Any guidance or steps to resolve this would be greatly appreciated.Thank you in advance for your support!

I have integrated intercom to our expo app. For iOS devices it’s working great but for android its not working and when we hit “Intercom.present()” it does open the sheet but in that we are getting “Something’s gone wrong Content could not be loaded”.I have added all the required permissions. For loginUserWithUserAttributes getting error : Error: ERROR - [HTTP 403] - Android SDK Messenger API is disabled for this workspaceIntercom.loginUserWithUserAttributes({email: email,userId: data?.data?.userId,name: data?.data?.username,}) 

Hi, I need to send a request to all of the users to ask their permission to allow push notifications from my company via intercom. Please tell me in detail exactly how to send this request.Thanks!

Is it possible to add bcc to an outgoing email from Intercom?

We’d like to utilize CoPilot/Fin AI to analyze our articles housed in intercom when we receive external questions. For example, if a staff member is emailed a question, opposed to it entered as a support ticket, we’d like to ask the question and be provided a suggested response. Is there any workflow available for something like this? Thanks!

Hi team,We're implementing the require-trusted-types-for 'script'; header in our app and have set up a default Trusted Types policy. However, the Intercom widget script fails on the following line:e.documentElement.innerHTML = t,withUncaught TypeError: Failed to set the 'innerHTML' property on 'Element': This document requires 'TrustedHTML' assignment. Has anyone encountered this issue before? Any suggestions on how to work around it while keeping Trusted Types enforcement?Thanks! 

Last week our number was ported and our customer support team is using Phone Calls through Intercom. We have to support teams and the caller is prompted to select option 1 or 2. Depending on their selection they are routed to the proper team which is then assigned to a teammate of that team. If the call is unanswered, it goes to voicemail. This has been working well for us however when a caller does not select an option and they are “abandoned in routing” they go to our default workspace assignee and remain open. How can I either route these to a team or automatically close these conversations?Any help is much appreciated!!

Hi, I want to grab the #ticket number in my macro so I can use it, but I can’t find it in the existing tokens available.   

We’re looking forward to implementing WhatsApp for Intercom, considering the documentation on integrating the WhatsApp App with Intercom we have some concerns, we hope people who have already done this integration may be able to answer.We’re currently using the WhatsApp API for custom marketing messaging and authentication, it simple, it only redirect the user to our App, however we would like a way to see if the user reply, and if so, for our customer service team to continue the conversation, note that there’s no third party manager of the account, we call the API ourselves, the WABA is hosted on Meta directly, we hope that can be achieved through this integration, so in concrete these are our concerns:If we integrate WhatsApp, we’ll lose access to manually call the WhatsApp API for authentication OTP and marketing messages? Can the API still create new conversations with new users? Can the integration at Intercom see those message, so the Customer Support team see the entire convers

Hi there! Is there a way to ensure that a tracker/group ticket link is visible in all future conversations with the same user on Intercom? I can see that detail only in the first conversation which got linked, but it’s not visible in subsequent ones. This leads to duplicate users being added to the ticket, impacting reports. It would be very helpful if, once a user’s conversation is linked to a tracker ticket, that linkage attribute appears in every future chat with the same user. This should be automatic. I’ve reviewed the attributes information but still don’t understand if and how this can be set up automatically.  Any help will be grateful.  Thank you so much! 

Hello there,It's great that any user can contact us via chat after reacting negatively to an article in the Help Center. However, are there any updates on further setting this up? I noticed this was posted a year ago.The user eventually reached live chat after 12 minutes. Is there a way to make changes, add a workflow, or implement any improvements? Thank you!

Hello, I need Intercom’s tax residency certificate for tax year 2024, could You help me? 

We’re having an issue where customers send us emails that are wider than the intercom email UI so they are cut off and the team is unable to read them. Our workaround is to either copy and paste the message into a different tab (like a Google doc) or reply CCing in our personal work address so we can view the email in gmail. Neither are great solutions.  It would be great if either emails were consistently resized appropriately or (for things we wouldn’t want to make artificially narrow like tables, which we get from customers frequently) we could “pop out” a message and make it whatever width we need in a pop-out window.

Is it possible have insert a “clickable” phone number into a messenger message, so a user on a mobile device can tap the message and call?E.g.When a query cannot be solved by a customer service agent via the chat, the customer service agent may say “Please call us” and insert the phone number into the message. The user, on their phone, would then tap the phone number.In HTML it would look like this: <a href="tel:6031112298"></a> The phone number above should be “clickable”Many thanks.

I need "content-available": 1 added to the payload, so we can handle the badge counter at our application

I have a Help Center full of articles in one language and want to programatically translate them into other languages. Can I use Intercom's API to do this?

Hi,We are developing a React Native app with Intercom integration using the https://www.npmjs.com/package/@intercom/intercom-react-native package. We want to get the unread message count for a user to show a notification when the app is open and the user receives a new Intercom message.We have tried using the addEventListener with IntercomEvents.IntercomUnreadCountDidChange but the passed in callback does not get invoked when new messages are received. We also tried calling the getUnreadConversationCount method and that returns the initial count of messages when our app starts and the user is logged in into Intercom, but subsequent calls always returns the initial value event when new messages are received in Intercom. Calling logout and login again in Intercom and then calling getUnreadConversationCount returns an updated count, so it looks like a bug in your code, or are we doing something wrong on our end?Thank you,Mikael Amborn

If a user has closed the Messenger pane, I don't want to show it when they receive a reply. I'd like it to show a notification bubble on the launcher and show the pane only when they click on it. I'm unable to find this option in any of the settings.

I set up a tour and when it’s live, the entire site is greyed out and the user can’t click anything, including the tour. The Next button will react when clicked, but doesn't actually go to the next page of the tour.Something that may be relevant:We recently updated to install the messenger securely. (Maybe that wasn’t done properly?)Also, can you do a product tour and other messages if the Messenger button is not visible?  Thank you

Is it possible to have a date range picker on the Outbound pages so that all statistics shown in the table below are for the specific periods ? Regularly, I want to check if my product tours recently had issues. The problem is that the data shown in the column “Issues” are from the creation of each product tour. So I have to click on each of them and then go to the issues tab to see if the issues is recent or not. It’s quite a waste of time as most of these issues have been fixed. It would be really cool just to have a simple ways to see for all my product tours which one had recent issues.Bonus: being able to “clear” these data in case the issues have been fixed
