Hi all,

 

We’re setting up Intercom to replace Zendesk.


We’re not moving to adding Intercom to Slack and would like to be able to have any replies to threads appearing as a Slack message in the thread.

Is that possible?

Another thing that is useful is to show the users email address in the Slack message like

 

Does anyone know if either of these are possible?

Hi @Murat Mutlu 👋 Eden from the support engineer team here.

 

To confirm, is this when using the native Slack integration in Intercom? If so, with the Slack integration, the first notification for an individual ticket is posted as a message in the channel and subsequent notifications are then posted as threaded replies, so this should already be expected behavior.At the moment, attribute sending with the Slack integration isn’t possible for conversations either (though for tickets, the top 3 ticket attributes will send). This is a great feature request for the team though! 👍

Hi @Eden - is there a way the Slack Integration can be configured so that only the first notification will be posted to the channel and not the subsequent threaded replies? We want to avoid having our customers share confidential information that could be potentially be shared within the Slack channel.
