The story

The pain

When we start a side conversation in Slack, there's no direct link back to the Intercom conversation it came from. This forces us to manually copy and paste URLs, and teammates in Slack can't easily jump into Intercom for full context. We need the Slack message to automatically include a clickable link to the originating Intercom conversation, so we can collaborate faster without losing context.

When a side conversation is started in Slack, there’s no direct link back to the originating Intercom conversation. Teammates in Slack can’t easily jump into Intercom for full context or to take action.

Also can we get a link in the slack channel that takes us to the side conversation in intercom that doesnt seem to happen currently

Just dropping a link to a conversation in Slack leaves users often lost a bit. And if you notify a channel in Slack, are then all users of that channel supposed to open first the Intercom conversation only to know it is not for them?

Intercom has side conversation which are fantastic, but that Slack integration is just really really missing for us.
