I'm looking for a way to export conversations from Intercom. More specifically, I'd like to export emails, posts and chats and replies from customers as we are replacing Intercom. Does anyone know if that's possible somehow?

HiI know that I need to use the API to export articles, and I’ve looked at a couple of existing questions around this. The answer seems to be, you need to use the API and to look at the article Formatting and exporting your articles with the API for answers. That article doesn’t have any information about exporting articles using the API. It has one line of text right at the bottom, pointing you to the developer docs, but not guidelines as to how to start.  I looked at the data export section of the developer docs and gave that a try, and first of all found out that it will only pull data from a 90 day period, so pretty useless if you want to export docs that have been created over time. I tried the Export API endpoint with a shorter time period and still had issues. For anyone else trying, you first have to Create a Data export, the response from that request will give you a job number. You then need to download the data export, using the job number.I tried this in the Intercom test e

I am looking to make our FAQ in Notion link to the Intercom Help Center. Would it be possible for Intercom to a. create a article and publish it when a new database entry is made and b. for Intercom to update that article when the database entry is updated in Notion?

What best practices/workarounds are out there for enforcing ticket tagging in Intercom before close? I saw the topic on 'Topics' but we are highly ingrained in Conversation Tags and need to require them before a conversation can be closed. It appears in Inbox rules that conversation tags aren't an option, only person or company tags which is not helpful for this problem.

Looking to graph monthly numbers on:• Monthly count of articles used in emails and chats by humans• Same for AI 

Hi - We want our users to be able to interact with Fin but not give certain domains the option to “Talk to a person”. Is it possible to configure this? We are open to turning this off for all customers for now, if we can’t turn it off for specific customers 

Would be helpful for reporting :)

In a Series, I can tag all users who go through the Series based on messages they’ve received.What about in a post or product tour that is not in a Series? Focusing just on Posts, I know how to tag users who have received the Post, but how do I ensure that users who receive the Post in the future will also be tagged?

Why does intercom not allow level hierarchy in tagging conversations?

Hi all!We are trying to find a way to raise an event from an external application into a FIN workflow, in order for it to continue processing.Explanation:We have an action as part of an app, which can used in workflows to trigger our functionality. This action will call an API on our backend, which will in turn trigger a flow to start a client-component via our own websocket. This works as expected.At some point, this client-component (or our backend) are in a position to say that the job is done. We want to send this information into the ongoing conversation/workflow between the user and FIN, so that the workflow automatically continues.It looks like there is no way of doing this, except for the closed beta FIN Tasks (this is what FIN suggested to me when asking it).Is this true? Is there no way to send external messages in to a process to trigger events? Thanks for any help with this :-) -kristof

My company has three products. Each of them have their own knowledge center. Each customer conversation is tagged based on which app the user originated from. Fin doesn’t seem to be able to connect the dots that when a conversation is tagged with Product A, it should use the associated knowledge center. I have provided this instruction via the guidance section of the training system.Do you have suggestions about how I can get FIN to focus it’s answers based on a tag?

In case we have a custom launcher on a web app or site, will this https://developer.chrome.com/en/docs/privacy-sandbox/third-party-cookie-phase-out/ (From January Chrome will stop supporting third-party cookies) affect the proper functioning of the launcher and the utilization of the chat box?Thank you!

Hi all, I saw this post somewhat related to what i’m about to post it’s not the same. Essentially, Chrome is not allowing 3rd party cookies so I was wondering if there’s anything we need to take into account for Intercom as we’re a current Intercom customer.  Intercome’s error:> Chrome is moving towards a new experience that allows users to choose to browse without third-party cookies.

Hi Intercom friends - we have been using Macros with screenshots of our signatures when replying to emails from Intercom (so that we each have our own instead of sharing one for the domain), but what we are seeing is that if a thread begins to form, the images grow bigger and bigger in the thread and start to overtake the whole screen. Also - the article links get all garbled up. Any suggestions for these formatting issues? Yours truly.e the whole page and look super goofy. Any suggestions for this? 

In my workspace, we sometimes have some chats that go the Unassigned bin and we'd like the ability to have Round Robin apply to these chats we send over to another team for action.  Ideally, once it is assigned to the desired team (this team uses Round Robin), that inbox rule will apply to the previously Unassigned chat and assign it to someone who's online at that time. Has anyone ever had any luck in doing this?

Hi Intercom Community,New member from Melbourne, Australia, running a small hospitality business. We’re exploring Intercom Phone for customer calls and inbox logging. Any Australian users, especially in Melbourne, using Intercom Phone? How’s the call connectivity, lag, or voice quality on AU networks? We’ve had major lag / buffering with other VoIP providers, so reliability matters. Thanks for sharing! Keen to connect with local users. Cheers

I have been using the Intercom API to try to recreate the regular metrics in Metabase. I have tried using this resource but haven’t found it to be particularly helpful. For example, if I try this query, the response maps to the New Conversations Metric in the Intercom dashboard instead of the Assigned Conversations metric which is my intention. SELECT  "Inbox Details - Team Assignee"."inbox_name" AS "Inbox Details - Team Assignee__inbox_name",  COUNT(*) AS "count"FROM  "public"."conversations_data" LEFT JOIN "public"."inbox_details" AS "Inbox Details - Team Assignee" ON "public"."conversations_data"."team_assignee_id" = "Inbox Details - Team Assignee"."inbox_id"WHERE  (    (      "Inbox Details - Team Assignee"."inbox_name" = 'VIP Support Inbox'    )       OR (      "Inbox Details - Team Assignee"."inbox_name" = 'Support'    )    OR (      "Inbox Details - Team Assignee"."inbox_name" = 'VIP Escalation Inbox'    )    OR (      "Inbox Details - Team Assignee"."inbox_name" = 'Escalation I

Hi everyone,Is it possible, in Intercom, to have on the Home page for Messenger (both Web and Mobile) to have a link or a button/widget that allows customers to call a specific number?I’ve managed to place a “tel:+1” on a message in a workflow, but I haven’t been able to place a number that’s easily accessible both on web and on mobile SDK. e.g.: Customer opens Messenger and clicks on an element and that straight calls the number reflected there, just for easier access.Also, on Home (Web) by customizing it with Apps the external links one interestingly accepts “mailto:” , but not “tel:”Any help? Or am I asking for features that don’t exist? 

Over the past few months I have been using a custom report to review conversations containing certain keywords using the chart drill-in feature. Usually the full conversation is shown within the reporting tab as that is easier to click through the conversations quickly. However, the past week or so I have had issues with the conversations not being shown and need to use the ‘View in inbox’ button in order to review the conversation. It is usually less than 1,000/month that get pulled into the report. When I try to refresh the report it populates the first few conversations but then goes back to just showing a blank page (shown below). Is there any way to resolve this so that all conversations are able to be viewed using the drill in feature? 

When I make an outbound call, it adds me as a contact in the client profile. Here are the steps:select a contact in intercom start a new conversation click the plus button in the top left corner to select phone call as the type of commsWhen I return to the page showing contacts, I then am added as a contact for the business. Client data is synced from Salesforce. So  typically if I dial out with a number that we don’t have in SF this is where we’re seeing me being added as a contact.

Getting 403 error again and again whenever i am suppose to login in a old account of mine in intercom and if i create a new account then also this 403 error is occured.

Please contact customer support.” this is appear and if i contact to your customer support there is no reply back its my urgent work please look up on this.

Hey there, Anyone have advice on how to track:• Monthly deflection count by AI using an article (ie. user opens chat, gets AI suggestion for article, doesn't open a support ticket).• CSAT for deflected cases (where a human wasn't needed) vs cases that result in a ticket where a human needed to get involved.Any help is appreciated.

Our team will use the Notes function to add details to some conversations. For example, they'll add a link to a Shortcut ticket if they escalated the issue to another team. We would like to quickly identify/surface these notes for quick action when following up.

I’m trying to use a custom HTML template to send an outbound message (it’s an A/B test, not sure that matters) and when I click “Schedule and set live” I get the error message “Attribute json blocks for html blocks contains an invalid message template variable.” I sent 10 Preview messages successfully to various email addresses for testing, and only encounter the error when I try to set the email live. I built the email in Figma with the Emailify plugin. I have exported code before using the same programs and didn’t get this error but obviously this is a different email with different styling. I am clearly not a programmer (I know just enough to be dangerous) and I am comfortable making minor changes in HTML. I have read the help desk article https://www.intercom.com/help/en/articles/245-creating-html-emails and I see the list of supported HTML blocks but am not sure how to search in my code for something *not* allowed. Happy to share the full code with someone who can help.
