Anyone using Custom Bots for Referral program? I am looking for an example, to create a simple refer a friend program in Intercom Custom Bot - collect e-mails and create automation to send this e-mail to our CSM team. Do you have any examples of it?
Any updates? , we really do need this
Hey @dario r​ 👋🏼
Â
In regards to 'collecting emails' as part of a referral program - you can't use 'Custom Bots' with the generic 'email' attribute because this will associate that email with that user/lead.
Â
You could create a custom attribute called 'referred email' as an example that you could use to collect emails but again, this custom attribute can only have 1 value added - so if customers wanted to refer 2 or 3 times that attribute would just be replaced by the newest entry.
Â
The best way would be to use a third party app for a 'form' and use this within a Custom Bot - this way the customer can come back and fill it out a few different times with different emails and they won't be lost or replaced.
Â
I've checked our App store here for 'Forms' apps 👇🏼

I hope this makes sense! Of course, reach out anytime for further clarification
