ember-intercom-io v1.2.1
ember-intercom-io
Intercom.io integration for Ember.js apps.
Setup
Install this addon with ember-cli ember install ember-intercom-io
Add the {{intercom-io}}
component to one of your templates`
The chat widget will appear whenever this component has been rendered, and should disappear whenever it's destroyed.
Configuration
In your config/environment.js
file, you must provide your appId
module.exports = function(environment) {
...
intercom: {
appId: null, // <-- REPLACE WITH YOUR INTERCOM.IO app_id
enabled: true, // <-- Setting to false in your testing environment prevents unneccessary network requests (true by default)
userProperties: {
createdAtProp: 'createdAt',
emailProp: 'email',
nameProp: 'name',
userHashProp: 'hash',
userIdProp: 'id'
}
},
...
};
Users vs Leads
In the intercom.io world, a lead is a visitor to your site or app, without an email or name associated with them. A user has a name and email, and is a good construct for tracking the history of all interactions w/ a single person.
You can make ember-intercom-io
aware of a "user" context (shifting into "users" mode instead of "leads" mode) by adding an object to the intercom
service (i.e., your user authentication service).
When the application updates the intercom.user
object, changes will be sent to Intercom and reflected in your Intercom dashboard.
app/services/authentication.js
import Service, {inject as service} from '@ember/service';
export default Service.extend({
intercom: service(), // the intercom service
didLogin(user) {
...
this.get('intercom').set('user.name', 'Joe Username');
this.get('intercom').set('user.email', 'joe@example.com');
this.get('intercom').set('user.createdAt', 1447135065173);
}
});
Custom Properties
To send custom properties on to intercom, add them to the intercom.user
object. All property names will be underscored prior to being sent.
undefined values will be removed (however, null
is kept).
let customProperties = {
myCustomThing: 1,
numberOfCats: false,
notDefined: undefined
}
set(this, 'intercom.user', customProperties);
becomes
{
my_custom_thing: 1,
number_of_cats: false
}

service exposes several public API methods that match Intercom.com's
existing Javascript API. For full details on the client API, read the Intercom docs.
