How to connect Google Dialogflow ES and Intercom
Create a New Scenario to Connect Google Dialogflow ES and Intercom
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.

Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a Google Dialogflow ES, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Google Dialogflow ES or Intercom will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Google Dialogflow ES or Intercom, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the Google Dialogflow ES Node
Select the Google Dialogflow ES node from the app selection panel on the right.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Google Dialogflow ES, Intercom, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the Google Dialogflow ES and Intercom integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Google Dialogflow ES and Intercom (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Google Dialogflow ES and Intercom
Google Dialogflow ES + Intercom + Google Sheets: When Dialogflow ES detects a specific intent from a user query, the details of the query and the identified intent are added as a new row in Google Sheets for tracking. Simultaneously, the Intercom contact profile is updated with the identified intent and query details for targeted support and personalized communication.
Intercom + Google Dialogflow ES + Slack: When a new conversation starts in Intercom, the conversation text is sent to Dialogflow ES to detect the intent. If the intent matches a predefined complex issue, a message is sent to a dedicated Slack channel, alerting the support team to the potentially complex conversation. The message includes the conversation text and the identified intent.
