We have completely redesigned the Article Search App to be an integrated Help Center experience that helps drive better self-serve support by allowing your customers to search and browse your Articles directly from the Messenger.
1. Move the Article card to be more prominent at the top of your Messenger, helping your customers get answers faster
2. Require customers to search or browse for an answer before being presented with the option to chat with your team
3. View articles in an expanded window for easier reading while in the Messenger
4. Searching and browsing Articles is supported from SDK version 10.3.0 in iOS and 10.2.0 in Android

We just updated our Salesforce App with several improvements to streamline team workflows, simplify configuration, and improve data accuracy.
Take advantage of pre-existing layouts, default values, and required fields to ensure the right data is available to work cases and use in your Salesforce workflows.
To use Salesforce case record types in Intercom, you need to enable access in your Salesforce app settings area. You can also first test the configuration using your Intercom test workspace and Salesforce sandbox. Additional information can be found in this help document.
We added a status that indicates the last time your Salesforce Account, Lead, and Contact data successfully synched with Intercom. This will help you to more easily monitor and troubleshoot potential issues with your Intercom and Salesforce configuration. Check the status in your Salesforce app settings area.
When possible, we use recently updated Intercom and Salesforce records to recommend the optimal field to map your Accounts in Salesforce with Companies in Intercom, making your configuration more accurate and easier to set up.
You can review or update your mapping settings here.
