Post CSAT Ratings to Slack from Intercom
Your Intercom inbox closes hundreds of conversations a week. Some get rated, most do not. When a bad rating comes in, you need to know immediately — not at the end of the quarter when you run a report.
Checking Reports manually
- 1Open Intercom Reports → Customer satisfaction when you want an update.
- 2Filter for negative ratings or scan the conversation ratings table.
- 3Screenshot or copy-paste notable ratings into Slack for the team to discuss.
- 4Follow up with agents individually — often days after the conversation closed.
The problem: Dashboard checking is a habit that erodes under workload. Negative ratings slip through for days before anyone acts on them.
With Supportman
Every CSAT rating from Intercom posts to a Slack channel you choose the moment the customer submits it — no Reports tab, no copy-paste.
- Connect Supportman to your Intercom workspace and Slack (OAuth, two clicks).
- Pick your main ratings channel and optional DSAT channel in the Supportman App Home.
- Watch ratings flow in — filter by emoji, require a remark, or exclude Fin per channel.
However you collect ratings in Intercom, Supportman posts each one to Slack in near real time — assignee, customer, emoji rating, remark, and a link back to the conversation.
Which Slack channels do ratings go to?
You choose a main ratings channel in the Supportman App Home. On Pro and above, dissatisfied and neutral ratings (🙁 😠 😐) can route to a separate DSAT channel so your main feed stays positive. Per-inbox routing is available on Enterprise — contact us for multi-team setups.
What information is included in the Slack message?
Each notification includes the emoji rating, assignee, customer name, any remark the customer left, and a View Conversation link back to Intercom. On Pro and above, AI Evaluation (beta) can add an IQS score in the thread.
Is there a delay between the rating and the Slack post?
Typically under 30 seconds. Supportman listens for Intercom rating webhooks and posts to Slack as soon as the event arrives.
