Intercom

API Key

Intercom

Connect to Intercom API for managing customer conversations, contacts, and support resources.

Set up in Intercom

  1. Sign in to the Intercom Developer Hub (developers.intercom.com) with your Intercom account.

  2. Open your Developer Hub Dashboard and create a new app (or select an existing one) tied to the workspace you want to access.

  3. Open the app's Authentication section and copy its Access Token. (Access Tokens are for accessing your own workspace; use OAuth if you are building a public integration.)

Set up in StackAI

  1. Open Settings → Connections, add a connection, and select Intercom.

  2. Enter the credentials and connection details in the fields below.

  3. Save the connection and check its connection status. Select this saved connection when configuring an action or feature that uses it.

Connection fields

StackAI field
Required
What to enter

API Key

Yes

Your Intercom Access Token. You can create one in the Developer Hub. Provider instructions.

Provider documentation: Setup reference.

Verify the connection

Check that the connection is healthy. Then run a read operation against a resource the connected account can access. A successful connection check confirms authentication; it does not guarantee permission for every action.

If access is denied, check the credential or OAuth permissions, the selected account or environment, and access to the specific resource. Update expired credentials or reconnect after permissions change.

Use an action

  1. Add the required Intercom action to the workflow.

  2. Select a connection when the action requests one.

  3. Complete the required fields. Use the reference picker when a value comes from another workflow step.

  4. Run the workflow and inspect the action’s output. Check the result before using it in a later step.

Important behavior

Actions that create, update, send, or delete data can change the connected service. Review their inputs before running them. A retry can repeat an operation; consider this when configuring retries for actions that change data.

The catalog lists the fields and capabilities available in the supplied provider definition. Availability can also depend on your deployment and organization’s Feature Access settings.
