Here's What You Need To Get Started

  • A valid Intercom account
  • A live Outgrow calculator, quiz or poll

Steps to set up the integration-

  1. Log in to your Outgrow account and open a live content piece for which you want to set up an integration with Intercom. Once you are in the builder, navigate to the Integrations section in the Configure tab. Under Native Integrations, you will see Intercom.

More Actions

Once the integration is configured and is active, you can navigate to the Intercom block to see more actions that can be performed in Intercom integration after it has been set up.

Re-configure- In case your Intercom credentials have changed or you want to connect Outgrow with a different Intercom account, then you will have to Reconfigure your Intercom integration to continue getting Outgrow leads in your Intercom account. If you have collected some leads on Outgrow but don't see them on Intercom then you should definitely try to Reconfigure once to fix it yourself. If that doesn't help then drop us an email with your query at [email protected].

View Mapping- If you need to go over which fields you have mapped to configure your Outgrow-Intercom integration, you can click on view mapping. you can then toggle between tabs to view the mapping across all fields.

Task History- This contains the list of all the leads sent to Intercom. The leads which are in queue to be synced will have status Waiting and those which have failed to sync due to some reason will be shown as Failed. If due to some error in connection your leads from a content piece have not been sent to Intercom then you can Sync the leads to your Intercom account after re-configuring. All the leads which were not sent to your account will be sent to Intercom when you sync. If for some reason, even after syncing you do not see your lead on your Intercom account then reconfigure once and then Sync.

Deactivate- In case you don't want to send leads from a content piece to Intercom, you can simply deactivate it.
