You can send your surveys via Intercom using default HTML code, but you can also customize the message yourself by hiding answers behind Intercom buttons.
Why would you do it?
to make your emails look better and matching with all the rest of your Intercom communication
to increase the response rate of your surveys
How to do it?
1. Create a standard Intercom email survey
Click on the New survey ➕ button on your dashboard. Select Email or shareable link survey from the menu.
Decide how you'd like to continue creating this survey. There are two options to choose from. You can either 1️⃣ set up a survey of your own or 2️⃣ select a survey from our templates library
Then choose the first question- if you decide to use single-answer, smiley scale or an NPS question we will provide you with HTML code (you will be able to hide every answer behind a button); however, if you choose any other type of question, we will give you access only to the link leading to a survey.
2. Copy the link to 1️⃣ a survey or 2️⃣ an answer
1️⃣ You can copy the link of your survey and hide it under CTA button in Intercom:
2️⃣ If you have chosen a single choice, NPS, or smiley scale as the first question, you can hide each answer behind a separate button. Click Get your code and copy the link of the answer:
❗️The HTML code consists of a question and multiple answers, each with a unique URL (inside <a> tags)
<a href="Here is answer URL" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Here is the answer</a>Please note, that you need to copy the URL preceding the answer to connect the right answer with the button. As in the example:
✅ It's ready! Send your new, great looking survey to customers and get ready for dozens of responses!
