How do I get my Intercom Access Token?

Go to the **Intercom Developer Hub** at **app.intercom.com/a/developer-hub/**. Click **New app**, give it a name, and select the workspace to install it in. Once created, click on your app, then navigate to **Authentication** in the left sidebar. Your **Access Token** will be displayed on this page. Configure the required permissions (scopes) — such as Read/Write People, Conversations, or Companies — and click **Save**. Copy the token and paste it below.

Can I look up a customer's full conversation history instantly?

Yes. Just ask your AI agent 'Show me all conversations with john@acme.com' and it retrieves every conversation — open, closed, and snoozed — including message content, agent assignments, tags, and resolution times. Perfect for getting full context before a customer call.

Can I track support team performance metrics?

Yes. Your AI agent can pull conversation counts, average response times, resolution rates, and open ticket volumes — giving managers instant visibility into team workload and SLA compliance without building custom reports or opening the Intercom analytics dashboard.

Is my customer data secure?

Your Access Token is a private app token that only accesses data in your own Intercom workspace. It respects your workspace's permission model — the token only has access to the scopes you explicitly grant. All API calls are made over HTTPS, and the token is never shared with third parties.
