When CompanyCam and Intercom operate independently, field teams often take photos of job sites, but the details about these jobs are not automatically transferred to Intercom. As a result, support agents lack context when responding to customer inquiries, leading to extended resolution times. For example, an agent may have to manually enter job details from CompanyCam into Intercom, wasting valuable time and increasing the chances of human error in data entry.

Top Ways to Automate CompanyCam & Intercom

  • Automated Photo Sharing: Instantly send photos captured in CompanyCam to relevant Intercom conversations, ensuring your support team has immediate access to visual documentation for faster issue resolution.
  • Real-Time Notifications: Automatically notify your team in Intercom whenever new photos are uploaded to CompanyCam, keeping everyone informed and aligned on project progress without manual checks.
  • Seamless Customer Updates: Create automated workflows that update customers in Intercom with the latest project photos from CompanyCam, enhancing transparency and improving customer satisfaction through timely communication.

How to Build the CompanyCam → Intercom Sync

  1. Set up a webhook in CompanyCam to trigger on the event of a new photo upload. This will send a POST request to your designated endpoint.
  2. Configure your endpoint to listen for the webhook payload, which includes the photo URL and associated job metadata (e.g., job ID, location, timestamp).
  3. Extract the relevant data from the webhook payload, specifically the job ID and photo URL.
  4. Use the Intercom REST API to create a new conversation or update an existing one. Make a POST request to the endpoint https://api.intercom.io/messages, including the extracted job ID and photo URL in the payload.
  5. Ensure that the Intercom message includes contextual information from the job metadata to provide agents with the necessary details.

Developer Warnings & API Gotchas

  • Ensure that the job ID from CompanyCam matches the user ID in Intercom. If there is a mismatch, the photo may not be linked to the correct customer conversation.
  • Be cautious about the payload size when sending photo URLs to Intercom; large images may cause issues with the API request. Consider using a thumbnail or compressed version of the image.
  • When mapping the metadata, verify that all required fields in the Intercom API are populated; missing fields can lead to failed API requests.
