Hello, I’ve found this page about possible values of conversation’s “part_type” propertyhttps://developers.intercom.com/docs/references/1.4/rest-api/conversations/conversation-part-model#conversation-part-typesbut it’s missing for current API versions and this list is definitely not complete (e.g. I don’t see there ‘channel_and_reply_time_expectation’ part_type) Is somewhere available a full list of possible `part_type` values ?  I have an integration with Intercom and want to filter out “useless” messages for me when syncing, e.g. messages from operator to the user Thank you in advance.

Hey everyone! We’re exploring a few Intercom apps for video/screen recording to make it easier for customers to share specific issues their having in our product via the help desk. We’re look at the three listed below. Any on the list that you use and love? Any you’ve tried and decided not to use?https://www.videosupport.io/#pricing https://www.coview.com/pricing/ https://www.hellomedian.com/pricing

In Settings > Help Center, I can see the collections I have defined and the articles in them.Where do I find (or convert that URL) into the URL of the published help system clients will see? 

Somewhere along the line, I found the URL for view of the help system our clients will use. That formula is intercom.help/<myProduct>/en. That page appears as it always did. But when I click on any of the collections in it, I see the error "This site can't be reached.Check for an error in help.<myproduct>.com".I just noticed that the top-level descriptor for an article has a maximum number of characters. Is that the error that causes the entire help system to fail?If so:a) Lots of stuff written. I now need to step through them and check them all (had to do that in any case).b) A more “in your face” warning that the help system will fail would have been nice.Or is there some other cause for the error I’m seeing?

Hi everyone,We’re a small startup based on Toronto. We’re interested in adding the multilingual help desk feature to our Intercom help center, but we’ve noticed that the current plan is $499 per month, which is quite over our budget.Since we primarily need the multilingual support feature, I was wondering if anyone here has experience with this or knows if there’s a more affordable option or perhaps a custom plan available? Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

 I have customers typing Childlock and not finding an article about Child Lock. In my previous tool, I could add acceptable terms and misspelt words to apply to an article to avoid this issue. I'd appreciate any help on this.

Howdy!Does anyone know how to setup cloudflare to forward cookies? Any help with this issue will be much appreciated.

Hi all!I would like to have my forwarded emails appear as users and not leads. Is this possible? At the moment all contacts that are created from forward emails appear as leads. Any help in this issue would be greatly appreciated.

É fundamental contar com a opção de fechamento do fluxo de automação baseado no horário de atendimento. Atualmente, meu bot/automação continua atribuindo conversas a agentes humanos, mesmo quando o cliente solicita atendimento fora do horário estabelecido, apesar de o chat já ter o horário de operação configurado. Como solução paliativa, precisei criar um outro fluxo que, após 7 minutos sem resposta, envia uma mensagem informando que o atendimento está fora do horário ou que o cliente está na fila. No entanto, essa abordagem está longe de ser a ideal. Trata-se de uma funcionalidade básica presente em todas as outras ferramentas de atendimento com as quais já trabalhei.

Has anyone had an issue with post URLs opening up in Internet Explorer or a browser that is not the user’s default browser? Is there any way to ensure that the URLs we include in posts open up in a user’s default browser?

Does anyone know how to make it so that when a ticket is resolved, the conversion tied to it is also closed ?

Hey everyone - Excited to get rolling with Intercom. We’ve chosen this platform over others specifically because the API access it offers to allow us to show custom attributes - like Estimated Shipping Date. Gorgias and others can’t do this yet (apparently). The use case is simple. A customer hits the chat and asks “What Is My Estimated Shipping Date”, we respond asking for an Order Number. We use this order number to search the Shopify API, pull back the order details, which includes a custom metafield called estimated_ship_date. We then show that data to the customer.  I’m sure I can do all this with numerous actions. But it seems to me that using the out of the box Order Search as a starting point would be best. I can then access the order.id and do 1 very specific call to pull back metaafields.  My question at this point is … can we use the Order Status feature as a starting point for an automated workflow? If not … does my workflow above make the most sense? Thanks!kane

We need to show users that there are additional unread responses - how is this done?Seems the Android SDK behaviour differs and every new message is displayed as it comes in.

Hi, I have a user who is unable to see the “Start Conversation” (in our case “Send us a message”) button I have read this article and checked our settings and have confirmed they are all what they should be. We are not using assignment capacity. I have also been unable to reproduce the problem on the same device/browser as the user or any other combination. We have tried clearing their browser cache, and logging in/out of or application (to re-initialize the Intercom connection) The problem is on an iPhone SE using Safari, but using a simulator I was unable to reproduce the issue. One thing I find odd is that I also don’t see the button in question in the preview editor (for either users or visitors) but am not sure if this is a red herring. are there more troubleshooting steps I can do or do you see something obvious that I am missing?

we have an integration with our current phone system and that creates a new conversation that is assigned to the teammate that answers the call.however, the agents should always remember to assign a team as well.they do not, so i want to automate that based on a workflow.but when i create a reusable workflow with a rule stating that "if team member is X ->the assign team X2"that unassigns the team member from the conversation.how can i automatically assign a team to a conversation that has an agent assigned to it without removing said teammate?

Hey, we need help setting up workflows on our intercom system. We are using it in our app for customer support, we want to automate customer queries and using fin AI.

I’m getting an error when I try to send an email to a new user, even though I have already verified my domain address and obtained the send email permission. Can I get some help on this? Thank you!  

I am trying to send a rich link in the metadata of a custom event triggered with the intercom-go package. In intercom’s dashboard, it reaches as [Object Object]. Is there any different input format expected for rich links in go, or is it just not supported?  event := intercomlib.Event{ UserID: userId, EventName: eventName, CreatedAt: int64(time.Now().Unix()), Metadata: map[string]any{ some_rich_link: map[string]any{ "url": "https://www.some-custom-url.com", "value": "some-custom-name", }, }, } ic.Events.Save(&event) 

I experience the console message [Intercom] Launcher is disabled in settings or current page does not match display conditions, but I have hidden the default launcher as I have implemented my own launcher.  I would not expect to see the console message in this case, but it does appear.These are my settings below, am I missing something?window.intercomSettings = {    api_base: "https://api-iam.intercom.io",    app_id: "<my app id>",    hide_default_launcher: true, // Hides the default Intercom icon    vertical_padding: 60  };

We recently moved to 24/7 support and have several agents with 3 or 4 days between their shifts. One of our SOPs is that a thank-you convo from a user will be assigned to the agent who helped, so they can get the CSAT survey.We now have convos sitting for multiple days in an agents inbox waiting for them to return to work, dragging their subsequent response time down. We can snooze them, but customizing the snooze time to everyone’s schedule is more clicks than we want to deal with.Is there any way (via workflow or any other option) to “snooze until agent is active again”? This would solve so many problems for us!

Hi there! I’ve been debugging an issue with our React Native app’s implementation of the `loginUnidentifiedUser` + `loginUserWithUserAttributes` combo, and noticed that while the Android module has a few descriptive cases before being handled by `IntercomError.getErrorMessage()`, the iOS module simply throws a generic error for all failures.Is there a reason why actual request errors aren’t being bubbled up through these methods? For example, if the login failed due to the Identity Verification check, I feel like it would be reasonable to include that and the related code in the failure callback.Thanks!

HelloI’m having trouble with Intercom’s Product Tours feature. I’ve set up a tour that’s supposed to trigger for new users upon their first login. However; the tour isn’t starting automatically as expected.🙁I’ve confirmed that the tour is set to trigger for new users (those who’ve signed up within the past 1 day). I’ve set the trigger based on a custom event that records a user’s first login. I’ve double-checked that the tour is published and not in draft mode. Tested across different browsers to ensure it’s not a compatibility issue. Ensured that the users meet all the criteria for the tour to start. I have checked  https://community.intercom.com/getting-started-with-intercom-43/what-to-do-when-product-tour-is-not-firing-troubleshooting-guide-6899-splunk reference guide but still need help. Despite these efforts; the tour isn’t triggering. Could this be related to a delay in event tracking; or is there something else I might be missing? Has anyone experienced similar issues; and what

I’m trying to tag users who visit some of my pages, so I can send them targeted communication and let agents know about it. Is there a way to tag users who have previously visited a page?  I see how I can tag new visitors.  Can I tag past visitors?  The user segmentation filters don’t include page viewed.

Hello!We @ the team members who need to be notified when we create a ticket by using their Slack handle, and the ticket then populates in Slack. I’ve noticed, however, that the slack handle doesn’t populate most of the time, and there seems to be little rhyme or reason as to why. First I thought it was preferring single usernames, like @megan, because I was seeing those go through, but then when I tagged an on-call person recently, @eng-on-call, it populated as well without issue.Does anyone know how to fix this so it appropriately notifies the person?

Hi there, we’ve got a barebones React Native app running the Intercom SDK version 7.1.3 - we’ve been trying to follow the documentation to setup Universal linking (including the appropriate Info.plist attribution), so our CX team can link specific places inside the app from their conversations https://developers.intercom.com/installing-intercom/react-native/deep-linking - but we’ve found that it correctly routes behind the modal for Intercom, but Intercom still opens up Safari (this is on an iOS test device) even though the specified domain is included in the ` IntercomUniversalLinkDomains` property in `Info.plist` - we are using AppsFlyer if that helps / aids anything, and React Navigation under the hood. (So if we head back to the app and dismiss Intercom, we are in the correct place)Thanks!
