How do I close an Intercom conversation?

Short answer: You can close conversation in Intercom by hand from its own interface, but it won’t repeat itself. On TinyCommand, add the Intercom Close Conversation action to a workflow, map its 3 inputs from any upstream app, and it runs automatically every time the trigger fires. No code, and a free tier to start.

FAQ

Questions about Close Conversation.

What does the Close Conversation action do in Intercom?
Closes an Intercom conversation. Use to auto-close stale conversations on inactivity or after a bot fully resolves the issue.
What inputs does Close Conversation require?
Required: Conversation ID, Admin ID. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.
Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?
Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.
What happens if Intercom returns an error?
The run history shows the failed step with its input and the error message Intercom returned, so you can fix the input and run the workflow again. Automatic retries are built into HTTP steps only, where you can also set your own retry count and delay.
Does Close Conversation support batch operations?
Run Close Conversation inside a loop to process each item in an array. TinyCommand does not throttle calls for you, so for large arrays add a Delay step if you need to stay within Intercom's rate limits.
