When a new user is created in our webapp, we send an event with information to Intercom. Can we use Intercom to create a new Contact in Salesforce?

Google Bard suggests that the presence of “X BeenThere” header, even though it’s deprecated, signals to email systems that the message is looped. Is there an effective way to tell Intercom to ignore this header and allow email through?

“Is it in the pipeline to add Folders to workflows? Not sure deleting them always makes sense, but if we could subfolder them under each workflow type that would be great.”

We wanted to use Intercom chat messenger on our Salesforce Community (Lightning Aura). 

I need to give support to the user by opening intercom chat if they are staying on a page for a minimum  of 2 min. How can I do this using the intercom.We have a flutter app. 

Hi there, I'm hoping to find a way in my web app to insert a link that could open the Messenger directly to a specific Collection of help articles. We're hoping to draw attention to a category of resources without forcing the user to open a new tab. Does anyone know if this is possible? Thanks!

How would I manually update a contact’s avatar? We cannot send the profile picture from our website/user accounts to Intercom. Does anyone know of a more manual way to do this? Examples would be if there were a way to add a Linkedin link that would parser the profile image link from there and post it to their Intercom contact page. I use Popl and it can automatically scrape information from the web to autofill contact cards, and I am trying to find something like that. I am also trying to make this with Zapier but for some reason I can’t find the correct attribute key to use for the avatar itself.

What are the most effective methods or tools for training FIN to conduct context-aware or context-driven conversational AI? Is it Workflow or a combination of snippets and articles? Is there a resource one can read to perfect the interplay between these tools?Is it possible to have FIN adjust its responses based on the user queries and preferences, providing a more customized and contextually relevant experience for the user?Example scenario:User: What are the best attractions in Paris?AI: The Eiffel Tower, the Louvre Museum, and Notre Dame Cathedral are popular choices.User: Can you recommend a good place to eat near the Louvre?AI: Certainly, there are several restaurants near the Louvre. Would you prefer French cuisine or something else?User: I would like to try authentic French cuisine.AI: In that case, you might enjoy 'Le Café des Musées' or 'Les Fines Gueules', both of which offer authentic French dishes and are within walking distance of the Louvre Museum.

let’s say the user left from the page 1 during the onboarding. Can I re-engage with them after 10 min using Mobile push(or any other outbound option) and direct to the page from where they left? Can I get a trigger after 10 min or create an automation rule for this scenario? 

Hi! In my report, I have "Median response time" Chart (Response time, Reply sent at, Median aggregation)I want to calculate the same metric via Intercom API. In the conversations schema, I found statistics.median_time_to_reply attribute. However, the results I'm getting while using this attribute is different from the chart, like +20 minutes. Can you please suggest what can be wrong here? Are there any other ways to calculate this via Intercom API?

How do we turn off the chatbot content from auto syncing?  It appears to be doing it every week.The situation for us is that we temporarily set our confluence wiki to public for initial import, to get thousands of content into the system, then we set it back to private. This works great to get all our content into the chatbot. But when it attempts to resync a week later, it all fails and all the content is now rendered useless. I’m sure their must be a setting somewhere to turn off each managed source from auto syncing, or at least change the frequency to something like 1 year.  But we can’t seem to find the setting, and FIN doesn't seem to know.  Perhaps maybe it has to be done on the back end. It seems like the most basic use case to just not sync imported content, so I’m hoping there is a toggle somewhere that I’m missing.  If not, then we’re pretty blocked from going to production and upgrading to the pro plan, as it takes hours to reimport the content, and we can’t do that over an

I've created an inline banner, which should be placed above my site's content, but it's overlapping it. How do I fix this?

We’d like to goal our agents on email first response times - but measuring the time from when a case is first assigned to the agent and when they respond, rather than from when the customer first emailed and the agent responded.Example:  A customer emails us.  2 hours pass before an agent is assigned the case.  The agent then responds an hour later.  For measuring the agent’s performance, we’d want to capture the 1 hour difference between assignment and the agent’s first response to the customer, rather than the 3 hours between when the customer first reached out and the agent first responded back.Basically, we want to goal our agents based on what’s in their control.  We are also tracking the overall First Response Time because at the end of the day that’s the customer’s experience- but we’re treating this as a team level metric influenced by things like staffing levels, product issues and the like - many things outside of an individual agent’s control.Is this possible?  How would we

Hi,I need to give search options functionalty inside dropdown component using Canvas Kit in inbox appI have 300+ single select option in dropdown so it is very deficult to find option when change the option from the dropdown list, So I have to integrate kind of search functionality.     

Hi,We're encountering an issue with the  Intercom for Jira and Intercom intergration, where conversations are being incorrectly moved to the "Unassigned" inbox. This happens after an agent creates a Jira ticket, connects it to a conversation and then snoozes the conversation. Initially, these conversations are correctly assigned to a specific inbox. However, upon unsnoozing, they revert to "Unassigned" instead of their original inbox. This only happens when there is a Jira-ticket in the conversation.The typical flow is as follows: a customer interacts with our chatbot, the conversation is then routed to an appropriate inbox, an agent responds and subsequently creates a Jira ticket, and finally snoozes the conversation. The problem arises when the conversation is unsnoozed and does not return to its initially assigned inbox.Could anyone suggest a solution to this problem?

I’m new to Intercom and I’m setting up my first Custom Actions. The app that I use the most is called Simplero so it is my top priority for getting set up.It uses Basic authentication (ref https://github.com/Simplero/Simplero-API?tab=readme-ov-file#authentication) and I’ve set up an authentication text token (ref https://www.intercom.com/help/en/articles/6615543-setting-up-custom-actions-authentication#h_7c58d5179f) in Intercom: In the Token value box, I pasted my API key. The API key that I have works. I’ve tested it in other apps (i.e. Pipedream) and it works just fine. I’ve also tried generating new API keys and I’ve tried 3 different ones. All of them return the following error: 401 Unauthorized{"error":"Bad API key"}The setup appears so simple, I can’t imagine what I might be doing wrong. So I tried setting up another Authentication Token for a different app I also use, and that one works fine, although it’s a Bearer token not Basic. So I’m not completely a newbie, but I’m by no m

Hi, we have been sending push messages to our customers for months using Intercom. We made no changes to our iOS app or certificates but are now getting a 400 MissingTopic error on all of our push messages to iOS users. Is this something that has changed internally with Intercom or the SDK? Thanks,Maanit

Only my “Test workspace” crashes, the production one works fine.The code I’m calling is the following when opening the Help Center:Intercom.present(Space.helpCenter)--The uncaught exception that is being thrown is:Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSUnknownKeyException', reason: '[<IntercomSDKPrivate.ErrorViewController ...> setValue:forUndefinedKey:]: this class is not key value coding-compliant for the key closeImageView.'Which often means the `ErrorViewController.xib `(or storyboard?) had a property set in a XIB which longer exists in ErrorViewController.--The expected behaviour is that if an error needs to display (because I’m using a test workspace) that the error shows rather than the app crashing.

i’m thinking to have DeepL translation feature in intercom  just like livechat platfrom offer API for it  intercom has it ? 

Has anyone successfully integrated Split.io with Intercom? One use case would be to drive segmentation via split as it’s how we soft launch new features. If Intercom doesn’t find the UI component to point at, it tends to just point at anything.

When I use the sample on the iOS platform, this error will be reported. How can I solve this problem 

Hello! I’m exploring the options to do outbound campaigns in Intercom using SMS and WhatsApp. Anyone facing the same problem?Basically I’m taking a look at some of the Apps within the Intercom App Store, but not sure about which solution could be the best. 

Hello Intercom Community,I'm looking for insights or suggestions on how to effectively track conversations with clients who have just completed their onboarding. We use HubSpot for onboarding, and it's synced with Intercom. When onboarding is done, the status in HubSpot is updated to "done", and the end date is set.Our challenge is finding a way to filter and view these specific clients conversations in Intercom. This data is crucial for us as we're developing a new onboarding flow and need to establish baseline KPIs.Does anyone have experience or tips on how to achieve this within Intercom, or perhaps through a workaround? Any advice or examples of how you might be tracking similar data would be greatly appreciated.Thanks in advance!

Upon reviewing all customer tickets, I noticed that customers can detect when we've seen or read their messages. Is there a way to disable this notification?Thank you for any help you can provide.

While integrating and testing SDK, I’ve got this error:Error Domain=IntercomSDKErrorDomain Code=403 "ERROR - [HTTP 403] - Your workspace is hosted in Europe but you connected to United States" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=ERROR - [HTTP 403] - Your workspace is hosted in Europe but you connected to United States}The reason is clear for me but not so clear how to fix it.How exactly my team can help to resolve this issue?
