In addition to significant speed improvements, our completely revamped Shopify app more accurately syncs customer data, enables new order creation from the Inbox, surfaces detailed order information, and more!
We surface tracking information, order confirmation links, product SKUs, and more inside the Inbox so your team doesn’t have to spend time manually searching for the relevant information.
Improved data syncing between Intercom and Shopify ensures your order and customer data are accurate and up to date. Now you can look up your customer’s profile using their order number or email address, even if it doesn’t match the one in Intercom.
Seamlessly create new orders, search for specific products, send product links, and share an order’s status right from the Inbox while you're chatting with your customers - no need to open Shopify.
Enable multiple languages in the Shopify app on your Messenger home screen so your customers can self-serve support in their own language.
If you’re already using the Shopify app, explore the new features in our help docs. Visit the Intercom App Store to install the Shopify app.
With new tagging permissions, you can restrict the ability to create, edit, and archive conversation tags to specific teammates.
By default, any teammate who “Can manage workspace data” will be granted the new tagging permission as well. You can change this, or assign permission to others by going to Teammates’ Settings and editing each user.
Tagging permissions also works with Custom Roles, making it even easier and more efficient to ensure that different teammates have consistent access to the right privileges.
To learn more about managing conversation tags, read our help doc.
You can now streamline your list of SLAs by archiving and deleting ones that you no longer need.

To help you drive even more leads and engagement with your Custom Bots, we’re launching several new features 🎉
1. A/B test your bots and set goals to understand effectiveness
It’s now easier than ever to understand what bot content performs well with A/B testing and goal setting. A/B test what message content is most effective, and set goals to see which versions perform best. Then make optimizations based on this data to drive more leads for your business 💰
2. Send your Custom Bots more than once
Generate more leads by reengaging returning website visitors with the same bot. You can now use the same Custom Bot to engage your website visitors, regardless of if they’ve seen the bot before. Customize when you want your bot to be seen until: once per user, until it’s opened/dismissed, or until it’s engaged with.
Note: to use this specific feature in your mobile app, you must have the latest version of Intercom's mobile SDKs .
