You can set up your Intercom integration from Settings, when you create a new Channel, or when you want toAdd source to an existing channel set up in your workspace.
To do this, set up your Channel and select Intercom in the Connect data source modal. This will require you to review and accept the required permissions.
It’s important to note that Intercom manages permissions based on roles, and the only action Dovetail takes is to read data. To ensure the integration works correctly, the user setting up the integration should also have the Can install, configure and delete apps permission in Intercom.
To connect an external data source, you’ll need access to it to authorize the
specific permissions that Dovetail requires. If you don’t have the correct
level of access and are unable to authorize, you’ll need to reach out to an
internal team that can provide you with the correct access.
