I'm being prevented from putting the email in the body of the intercom web message, every time I try to put it in, I get: POST 403 (Forbidden). Why is this happening? Can't I send the email? If the documentation says to put it in? import * as fromIntercom from '@intercom/messenger-js-sdk'; fromIntercom.Intercom({    app_id: this.appId,    name: profile.nickname,    userId: profile.sub    email: profile.email});

Hello Intercom Support Team,I hope this message finds you well.We have successfully integrated the Intercom SDK into both our Android and iOS apps, and everything has been working properly for the most part. However, we've encountered some client issues specifically with the Android app regarding Mobile Carousels.Issue Details:We have set up Mobile Carousels as a series in the Intercom dashboard. These carousels are triggered from the server-side as expected. When a carousel pops up on the mobile app, it blocks the app's UI rendering and prevents API calls from executing, which impacts the overall user experience negatively.Environment Details:Platform: Android Intercom SDK Version: 15.9.1 Trigger Method: Server-sideImpact:This behavior creates delays and interruptions in the app’s functionality, leading to poor user experience for our clients.Expected Behavior:When the carousel is displayed, it should not block the app's UI rendering or API calls.Request for Assistance:Could you pleas

We are using helpdesk a little differently.Example: Team leader A has 4 team members - B, C, D, E.B raises a ticket for the whole team but then leaves before it is resolved, we would like to assign this ticket to another member, A. Is this possible?

Hi, I’m setting up an onboarding checklist for new users. Users will have to go through multiple pages within our app to complete the list. I did a test run but the checklist is not opening up on the sequential pages after the initial launch. How can I make sure that the checklist is opened each time the user goes to the next page? Or does the user have to manually open the list each time he moves to another page?

I’m currently setting up workflows in Intercom to automate some of my customer interactions, but I want to make sure everything is functioning properly before launching it to all users. Is there a way to test or preview the workflows to ensure the messages, triggers, and actions are working as expected? also( Check out ), are there any best practices for testing workflows before they go live to avoid issues with incorrect message delivery or user segmentation? Any advice or tips on how to effectively test workflows would be greatly appreciated!

Hello,Can you help me with this questions?Is it possible to integrate with a third-party API that requires OAuth2 authentication? Can I receive notifications (webhooks) from a third-party system?Use Case:Suppose I receive a webhook notification from a third-party system containing a resource ID. After receiving this notification, I need to use their API—which requires OAuth2 authentication—to fetch additional data. The data from this API response will be used to create a ticket in Intercom.

Don't pass by—give an Upvote if you want to ensure your clients' emails don't get lost in the spam folder!The built-in spam filter often flags legitimate emails as spam, making them easy to miss. This is unacceptable, especially since there's no option to disable it! Please add this feature as a matter of urgency.

Hi there! Would anyone happen to know what this refers to? 

Hey Team,Thanks in advance, I'm attempting to link a tag to the ticket generated through the create ticket API, utilizing the Attach Tag to Ticket API. However, whenever I make an attempt to attach the tag, I receive an error indicating that the tag isn't supported for this ticket type. I've tried attaching the tag across all three categories (Ticket Types: "Customer," "Back-office," "Tracker").Is there something I'm overlooking in my approach, or could there possibly be an issue with the Tag API itself? { "type": "error.list", "request_id": xxxxxxxxxxxxx, "errors": [ { "code": "unsupported", "message": "Tag not supported for this ticket type" } ]}

Hi Everyone, I’m Emmanuel Katto from Dubai, Has anyone experimented with using Fin for website conversion use cases, particularly for driving acquisitions on a public website? While Fin’s content understanding is great for support, we’re curious if it could be leveraged to help with lead generation or conversion goals—like booking demos or signing up users—rather than just resolving customer questions. The idea would be to train it on various website pages and PDF content to simplify the process and potentially eliminate the need for managing numerous custom questions. Any thoughts or suggestions on how this could be implemented effectively? RegardsEmmanuel Katto

Usually, reaching out to Support isn’t very fast, so I’ll try asking the members of this community instead.I’d like to create an audience, but the audience tool isn’t exactly what I need—it doesn’t let me select all the viable fields within Intercom.For example:Users who received WhatsApp campaigns through our company’s WhatsApp Business number. Users who replied to any WhatsApp message using specific keywords. Users who were transferred to a specific team inbox. Users with a conversation attribute marked with a specific value.I’d like to use these criteria to create an audience that I could leverage in a future WhatsApp Business Outbound campaign.
