Intercom

With Intercom modules in Make, you can manage the contacts, companies, admins, data events, data attributes, tags, notes, and conversations in your Intercom account.

To use the Intercom modules, you must have an Intercom account. You can create an account at https://www.intercom.com/.

Refer to the Intercom API documentation for a list of available endpoints.

Connect Intercom to Make

To establish the connection in Make:

  1. Log in to your Make account, add an Intercom module to your scenario, and click Create a connection.

    Note: If you add a module with an instant tag, click Create a webhook, then Create a connection.

  2. Optional: In the Connection name field, enter a name for the connection.

  3. Optional: Click Show advanced settings and enter your custom app client credentials. For more information, refer to Intercom Authentication documentation.

    If requested, use the following Redirect URI when creating your custom app: https://www.integromat.com/oauth/cb/intercom.

  4. Click Save.

  5. If prompted, authenticate your account and confirm access.

You have successfully established the connection. You can now edit your scenario and add more Intercom modules. If your connection requires reauthorization at any point, follow the connection renewal steps here.

Set up Intercom Webhooks

This app uses webhooks to trigger a scenario when an event occurs instantly. All webhook modules have an instant tag next to their name.

To set up a webhook, follow these steps:

  1. Add an Intercom instant module to your scenario and click Create a webhook.

  2. Optional: Enter a name for the webhook in the Webhook name field.

  3. Select the corresponding connection for the webhook in the Connection field.

  4. Click Save > Copy address to clipboard.

  5. Log in to your Intercom account and navigate to your App in your Developer Hub.

  6. In the left sidenav within your Intercom app, click Webhooks and enter your request endpoint URL (the link copied in Step 4 above) in the field provided.

  7. Choose the Topics you will need.

Intercom will now send data to Make through the webhook when the selected event occurs. For more information, refer to the Intercom Setting Up Webhooks documentation.
