Fork of intercom/intercom-ruby with specific command line scripts to perform tasks that are not accessible via Intercom's UI (ie: updating company name.)
Ruby bindings for the Intercom API (https://api.intercom.io).
For generating Intercom javascript script tags for Rails, please see https://github.com/intercom/intercom-rails
Version 2 of intercom-ruby is not backwards compatible with previous versions. Be sure to test this new version before deploying to production. One other change you will need to make as part of the upgrade is to set Intercom.app_api_key
and not set Intercom.api_key
(you can continue to use your existing API key).
This version of the gem is compatible with Ruby 2.1
, Ruby 2.0
& Ruby 1.9.3
gem install intercom
Using bundler:
gem 'intercom', "~> 2.4.4"
Intercom.app_id = "my_app_id"
Intercom.app_api_key = "my-super-crazy-api-key"
You can get your app_id
from the URL when you're logged into Intercom (it's the alphanumeric just after /apps/
) and your API key from the API keys settings page (under your app settings in Intercom).
Resources this API supports:
https://api.intercom.io/users
https://api.intercom.io/companies
https://api.intercom.io/tags
https://api.intercom.io/notes
https://api.intercom.io/segments
https://api.intercom.io/events
https://api.intercom.io/conversations
https://api.intercom.io/messages
https://api.intercom.io/counts
https://api.intercom.io/subscriptions
Additionally, the library can handle incoming webhooks from Intercom and convert to Intercom::
models.

"found_date" => 12909364407
}
)
Metadata Objects support a few simple types that Intercom can present on your behalf
Intercom::Event.create(:event_name => "placed-order", :email => current_user.email,
:created_at => 1403001013,
:metadata => {
:order_date => Time.now.to_i,
:stripe_invoice => 'inv_3434343434',
:order_number => {
:value => '3434-3434',
:url => 'https://example.org/orders/3434-3434'
},
price: {
:currency => 'usd',
:amount => 2999
}
}
)
The metadata key values in the example are treated as follows-
- order_date: a Date (key ends with '_date').
- stripe_invoice: The identifier of the Stripe invoice (has a 'stripe_invoice' key)
- order_number: a Rich Link (value contains 'url' and 'value' keys)
- price: An Amount in US Dollars (value contains 'amount' and 'currency' keys)
Subscribe to events in Intercom to receive webhooks.
# create a subscription
Intercom::Subscription.create(:url => "http://example.com", :topics => ["user.created"])
# fetch a subscription
Intercom::Subscription.find(:id => "nsub_123456789")
# list subscriptions
Intercom::Subscription.all
# create a payload from the notification hash (from json).
payload = Intercom::Notification.new(notification_hash)
payload.type
# => 'user.created'
payload.model_type
# => Intercom::User
user = payload.model
# => Instance of Intercom::User
Note that models generated from webhook notifications might differ slightly from models directly acquired via the API. If this presents a problem, calling payload.load
will load the model from the API using the id
field.
You do not need to deal with the HTTP response from an API call directly. If there is an unsuccessful response then an error that is a subclass of Intercom:Error will be raised. If desired, you can get at the http_code of an Intercom::Error via its http_code
method.
The list of different error subclasses are listed below. As they all inherit off Intercom::IntercomError you can choose to rescue Intercom::IntercomError or else rescue the more specific error subclass.
Intercom::AuthenticationError
Intercom::ServerError
Intercom::ServiceUnavailableError
Intercom::ServiceConnectionError
Intercom::ResourceNotFound
Intercom::BadRequestError
Intercom::RateLimitExceeded
Intercom::AttributeNotSetError # Raised when you try to call a getter that does not exist on an object
Intercom::MultipleMatchingUsersError
Intercom::HttpError # Raised when response object is unexpectedly nil
Calling Intercom.rate_limit_details
returns a Hash that contains details about your app's current rate limit.
Intercom.rate_limit_details
#=> {:limit=>180, :remaining=>179, :reset_at=>2014-10-07 14:58:00 +0100}
