Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Intercom, X (Twitter), 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 Intercom and X (Twitter) integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Intercom and X (Twitter) (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Intercom and X (Twitter)
X (Twitter) + Slack + Intercom: When a new mention is found on Twitter, the message is sent to a Slack channel to identify trending support topics. If a topic is trending, a notification is sent to Intercom to improve support responses.
X (Twitter) + Google Sheets + Intercom: This automation tracks brand mentions on Twitter, analyzes the sentiment of each tweet, and logs the tweet and sentiment score in a Google Sheet. If the sentiment is negative, it updates the contact in Intercom.
