Introduction
The BuddyBoss App does not include Intercom integration out of the box. If you want to use Intercom in your app, custom development and Developer Access are required. This involves importing the Intercom SDK and building the necessary functionality using React Native. Simply importing the SDK is not enough—you must also integrate it into your app by creating appropriate screens and configuring its features.
The Default Behavior
- By default, the BuddyBoss App doesn’t support Intercom integration.
