What each app adds
Intercom
Triggers
- New conversationRuns for each new Intercom conversation, with the first message, who wrote it and where it came from. Conversations already there when the workflow is turned on don't start it. How often it checks follows your workspace plan.
- Conversation closedRuns each time an Intercom conversation is closed, with its first message, the customer and who closed it. A conversation reopened and closed again runs it again. How often it checks follows your workspace plan.
- Conversation ratedRuns each time a customer rates an Intercom conversation (the 1 to 5 score Intercom asks for when a conversation ends), with the score, their comment, their name and email, and a link to the conversation. To act only on bad ratings, set Only ratings of this or lower (2 for ratings of 1 or 2) instead of adding a condition step. No webhook is needed. It waits about three minutes after a rating so the comment comes with it. Ratings given before the workflow is turned on don't start it. How often it checks follows your workspace plan.
- New contactRuns for each new Intercom contact, a user or a lead, with their name, email and phone. Contacts already there when the workflow is turned on don't start it. How often it checks follows your workspace plan.
- Conversation taggedRuns when a tag is added to an Intercom conversation, with the customer's name and email and what they wrote. Runs once for each tag on each conversation; tags already there when the workflow is turned on don't start it. How often it checks follows your workspace plan.
