- On the Sources page, select "Intercom" from the Help Desk or Live Chat sections or by searching for it, using the search bar.
- Click "Enable" (a new tab will open).
- In order to proceed you need to be signed in to your Intercom Account.

Access required
Make sure that the user creating the integration has the following permissions:
- access to people, companies and account lists
- access to lead and user profile pages lists
- export for lead, user and company data
- access to all conversation
By default, we pull in the following objects (amount of historical data depends on what is available for your plan):
- Companies
- Contacts
- Conversations
We bring in both chats and emails, and we separate by the following definitions provided by Intercom:
- customer initiated
- admin initiated
- automated
- operator initiated
How will the data be mapped into Dreamdata:
- Conversations will be mapped to a company in your primary crm by the email address of the user
For touchpoints we set the following parameters
