Not officially supported

Please note that this is NOT an official Intercom SDK. The third party that maintained it reached out to us to note that they were unable to host it any longer. As it was being used by some Intercom customers we offered to host it to allow the current Python community to continue to use it. However, it will not be maintained or updated by Intercom. It is a community maintained SDK. Please see here for the official list of Intercom SDKs

Python bindings for the Intercom API (https://developers.intercom.com/intercom-api-reference).

Upgrading information

Version 3 of python-intercom is not backwards compatible with previous versions.

Version 3 moves away from a global setup approach to the use of an Intercom Client.

Installation

pip install python-intercom

Basic Usage

Configure your client

from intercom.client import Client
intercom = Client(personal_access_token='my_personal_access_token')

Note that certain resources will require an extended scope access token : Setting up Personal Access Tokens

Sending messages

# InApp message from admin to user
intercom.messages.create(**{
    "message_type": "inapp",
    "body": "What's up :)",
    "from": {
        "type": "admin",
        "id": "1234"
    },
    "to": {
        "type": "user",
        "id": "5678"
    }
})

# Email message from admin to user
intercom.messages.create(**{
    "message_type": "email",
    "subject": "Hey there",
    "body": "What's up :)",
    "template": "plain", # or "personal",
    "from": {
        "type": "admin",
        "id": "1234"
    },
    "to": {
        "type": "user",
        "id": "536e564f316c83104c000020"
    }
})

# Message from a user
intercom.messages.create(**{
    "from": {
        "type": "user",
        "id": "536e564f316c83104c000020"
    },
    "body": "halp"
})

# Message from admin to contact
intercom.messages.create(**{
    'body': 'How can I help :)',
    'from': {
        'type': 'admin',
        'id': '1234'
    },
    'to': {
        'type': 'contact',
        'id': '536e5643as316c83104c400671'
    }
})

# Message from a contact
intercom.messages.create(**{
    'from' => {
        'type': 'contact',
        'id': '536e5643as316c83104c400671'
    },
    'body': 'halp'
})

Events

import time

intercom.events.create(
    event_name='invited-friend',
    created_at=int(time.mktime(time.localtime())),
    email=user.email,
    metadata={
        'invitee_email': '[email protected]',
        'invite_code': 'ADDAFRIEND',
        'found_date': 12909364407
    }
)

# Retrieve event list for user with id:'123abc'
intercom.events.find_all(type='user', "intercom_user_id"="123abc)

Metadata Objects support a few simple types that Intercom can present on your behalf

current_user = intercom.users.find(id="1")

intercom.events.create(
    event_name="placed-order",
    email=current_user.email,
    created_at=1403001013,
    metadata={
        'order_date': time.mktime(time.localtime()),
        '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)

Contacts

Contacts represent logged out users of your application.

# Create a contact
contact = intercom.leads.create(email="[email protected]")

# Update a contact
contact.custom_attributes['foo'] = 'bar'
intercom.leads.save(contact)

# Find contacts by email
contacts = intercom.leads.find_all(email="[email protected]")

# Merge a contact into a user
user = intercom.users.find(id="1")
intercom.leads.convert(contact, user)

# Delete a contact
intercom.leads.delete(contact)

Counts

# App-wide counts
intercom.counts.for_app()

# Users in segment counts
intercom.counts.for_type(type='user', count='segment')

Subscriptions

Subscribe to events in Intercom to receive webhooks.

# create a subscription
intercom.subscriptions.create(url='http://example.com', topics=['user.created'])

# fetch a subscription
intercom.subscriptions.find(id='nsub_123456789')

# list subscriptions
intercom.subscriptions.all():
    ...

Errors

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 Error via it's http_code method.

The list of different error subclasses are listed below. As they all inherit off IntercomError you can choose to except IntercomError or the more specific error subclass:

AuthenticationError
ServerError
ServiceUnavailableError
ServiceConnectionError
ResourceNotFound
BadGatewayError
BadRequestError
RateLimitExceeded
MultipleMatchingUsersError
HttpError
UnexpectedError

Rate Limiting

Calling your clients rate_limit_details returns a dict that contains details about your app's current rate limit.

intercom.rate_limit_details
# {'limit': 180, 'remaining': 179, 'reset_at': datetime.datetime(2014, 10, 07, 14, 58)}
