Unify Conversations and CRM: Intercom + Salesforce Integration

Intercom is a leading platform for customer communication—known for its live chat, automated messaging, and in-app engagement. It’s trusted by SaaS companies, marketplaces, and support-driven teams across the world. Intercom helps businesses onboard users, handle support at scale, and drive retention with contextual communication. But when Intercom runs separately from Salesforce, conversations lose context and actions don’t follow data. Integration solves that.

Why It Matters

Why It Matters

Sales and support teams often talk to the same users—but with different tools. When Salesforce holds your pipeline and Intercom holds your conversations, the disconnect slows you down.

One View, Smarter Conversations

One View, Smarter Conversations

By syncing Intercom and Salesforce, reps and agents gain full visibility: who the user is, what they’ve purchased, where they sit in the funnel—and how to help them.

Faster Action, Tighter Loops

Faster Action, Tighter Loops

Create leads or cases from Intercom chats. Update CRM records based on live chat behavior. Trigger journeys or alerts automatically—no copy/paste, no manual work.

Existing Solutions and APIs

Intercom provides REST APIs for users, conversations, events, and tags. Salesforce offers AppExchange integrations and supports programmatic access through Flow, Apex, and Platform Events.

Native Intercom Salesforce apps exist, but often lack flexibility—custom field mappings, logic branching, or deep user tracking usually need custom dev.
