Teammates can now record and send voice notes directly from the Intercom inbox when replying to WhatsApp conversations.

Record a message, preview it before sending, and your customer receives it as a native WhatsApp voice message — just like they'd get from any other WhatsApp contact.

Average Adjusted Handling Time

Faiz avatar
Shared by Faiz • May 07, 2026

Average Adjusted Handling Time (AAHT) measures the time a teammate is actively handling a conversation, the clock runs from when they first open it, pauses whenever they switch to other work, and resumes when they come back. Each conversation's handling time now reflects time actually spent on that conversation.

  • Pause on conversation switch: the clock stops when a teammate switches to a different conversation and resumes when they return.
  • Optional pause on teammate away: Admins can also pause AAHT when a teammate is automatically set to away due to inactivity. This uses an inactivity toggle in Settings.
  • Public API for handling events: A new endpoint that returns the underlying pause/resume events for a conversation along with pause reasons.

Data Connectors

Data Connector Improvements

David avatar
Shared by David • May 05, 2026

Our redesigned Data Connector experience brings together everything you need (setup, security, monitoring, versioning, APIs), so you can successfully configure data connectors.

  • New configuration flow — The redesigned configuration experience simplifies API setup, data transformation, Fin configuration, and security controls, so you can reliably deliver the right data to Helpdesk and Fin.
  • Security enhancements — Ensure every data connector is built secure by default. Your platform-wide authentication rules are applied by default, and potential security risks are surfaced clearly alongside practical recommendations on how to manage them.
  • Reporting — Evaluate the impact and health of each data connector. A dedicated dashboard outlines usage, success rate, latency (Intercom vs. external), error types, and more. Monitor trends over time and dive into detailed execution logs to pinpoint opportunities for improvement.
  • Versioning — Iterate on your data connectors without breaking workflows. Every change is captured, giving you visibility into when the change happened, who made the change, and why. If an update has unintended consequences, you can roll back in moments.
  • Public APIs — Use the new Configuration API to manage data connectors programmatically, so you can rapidly implement changes. Or use the new Results API to pull detailed execution data, so you can build your own dashboards, integrate with your alerting systems, and more.

Shared by Sean • April 24, 2026

You can now track every change to your Fin Guidance rules with built-in version history. See who changed what and when, add notes to explain why, and restore a previous version if something goes wrong — all without leaving the Guidance editor.

Guidance version history now includes:

  • Full version timeline showing each published version with author, timestamp, and live/paused status
  • Version notes to document what changed and why, prompted when saving or enabling
  • Rollback with one click restore to load any previous version into the editor for review before saving

Channel and audience snapshots are preserved with each version so you can see the full context of past configurations.

Two new macro actions to power up your workflows

Andrea avatar
Shared by Andrea • April 23, 2026

Macros just got more powerful with two new actions.

  • Open conversation lets you reliably reopen closed or snoozed conversations from a macro — no more workarounds when reassigning to the same team.
  • Set ticket state lets you transition a linked ticket to any custom state as part of a macro, making it easy to standardize ticket workflows across your team. Both actions are available in the macro builder today.

Shared by Andrea • April 23, 2026

Teammates can now choose the initial ticket state when converting a conversation to a ticket — no more creating in "Submitted" and then switching states manually. Pick the right state up front so tickets land exactly where they belong in your workflow from the start.

  • Choose any available ticket state directly in the convert-to-ticket panel
  • State options update automatically when you switch ticket types
  • Also available via the public API for automated workflows
