This integration allows you to send one-way events from GuideWhale content interactions (such as guide views, completions, and checklist usage) to Intercom for advanced tracking and reporting.
All user events pushed to 3rd party platforms are prefixed with gw_ to easily differentiate GuideWhale from other event sources.

Use Cases

  • Target personalized messaged, emails or chatbot flows based on GuideWhale events.
  • View user events inside Intercome user profile to improve contextual awareness of your support agents with the information which GuideWhale content has already been seen.
  • Segment users inside Intercom for precise targeting.

Requirements

  • Installed GuideWhale Javascript SDK
  • Installed Intercom Javascript SDK
  • Enabled integration in GuideWhale dashboard settings

How It Works

  • GuideWhale SDK will fetch the integration settings from our dashboard when a user is identified.
  • When a new GuideWhale event is tracked, we first check if event pushing is enabled and if the event belongs to an enabled group of events.
  • After that we try pushing the event to Intercom using your installed Javascript SDK if it is available.
  • Please note that this will likely not work for users who have installed an ad blocker as it will block all events from going out to Intercom.

Configuration

  1. Navigate to Settings > Integrations .
  2. Here you will be able to enable the integration and toggle which event types you want GuideWhale to send to Intercom.
  3. Once enabled, users will start pushing GuideWhale events to Intercom.
