Our Intercom integration helps customer-facing teams report feedback to the product team and get a view of how that feedback is being processed, all without leaving Intercom.
Follow these steps or click the interactive demo below 👇
Go to "settings" ("g" then "s" for keyboard shortcut lovers)
In the "integrations" tab, on the right, click on "Add new" and select Intercom
Login to your Intercom account, select the Intercom workspace you want to sync, and click "Connect app"
You're good to go 😎
Now that you connected your Intercom account, here's what will happen:
Cycle will import your Intercom contacts and their companies into your workspace. Intercom contacts & customers in Cycle will merge seamlessly to avoid creating any duplicates.
A tiny Intercom icon will be displayed next to your customers in Cycle who are also Intercom contacts. You can click that icon to go straight to the corresponding contact in Intercom.
The Intercom integration packs a ton of features:
Let's dive in!
If the customer exists in your Cycle workspace, the integration will automatically insert the customer's name in the feedback's title and map the customer to the feedback. Otherwise, it will insert the contact's email address in the feedback's title so you can easily create the customer in Cycle.
Assigning someone to feedback will ensure they get it in your Cycle Inbox. The integration automatically loads all your workspace members so you can map them to feedback.
If you’re using Intercom, you’re used to their tagging system. So what’s more natural than creating Cycle feedback from just a Cycle tag?
Doing this will fetch the message in your Cycle inbox, ready for processing. You’ll also have a link to reopen this ticket if you want to get more context.

Advantages

Disadvantages
Longer feedback creation
When the whole conversation contains valuable feedback, select "conversation". This will make sure the entire Intercom conversation reaches your Cycle inbox. If you want to send only a specific part of the conversation, select "custom"; this will let you write a custom text to send to Cycle.
Advantages
Automatic feedback creation
Disadvantages
Can flood Cycle if filters are set up wrong in the automation
Cannot tag properties
This is a great way to categorize feedback by importance, product area, type, or any other property that fits your needs.
Every feedback linked to a customer will appear in the right sidebar of the related Intercom conversation. No matter which integration was used to create the feedback.
This enables customer-facing teams to give customers an update on the status of their requests. Clicking one of these docs will open it in Cycle.
You'll also receive updates on the Intercom conversation as soon as the customer requests status changes in Cycle, helping you close the feedback loop every time you ship something.
Please follow the steps similar to to get set up.
