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?

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?

Yes. Use search_contacts to find contacts by email, name, or custom attributes. Then use send_message to send a message to a specific contact, or reply to an active conversation thread.
Can I view full conversation histories?
Yes. list_conversations shows all conversations with status. Use get_conversation with a conversation ID to retrieve the full message thread including sender, timestamps, and content.
What type of Intercom token do I need?
