Intercom

In this article we'll show you how to integrate Intercom on your Softr app.

Intercom is a messaging platform that allows you to communicate with prospective and existing customers. Here, we’ll go through the process of adding the Intercom chat widget to your Softr app.

Locating Intercom Workspace ID

First, you need to locate your Intercom workspace ID (app ID). It can be found in the URL of any page you have open in Intercom. It’s the code that comes after apps/.

Query these docs via MCP

Add this server to Claude, Claude Code, Cursor, Mistral, or any tool that supports MCP. Your agent can then search Softr Documentation documentation and read it in full, instead of answering from memory.

  • searchFind the passages that answer a question.
  • fetchRead one page in full, as Markdown.
  • list_pagesSee every page in this documentation.

Query these docs over HTTP

The same tools also work as plain web requests. Use this for scripts, or for any tool that does not support MCP. There is one endpoint per tool. Arguments go in the query string, and the answer comes back as JSON.

https://docs.softr.io/api/docs/search?query=custom+domain

Read the OpenAPI description. It is built from the same definitions as the tools, so it always matches what the endpoints do.

Read these docs as Markdown

Add .md to any page URL to get its Markdown source. You can also send the headerAccept: text/markdown to the page URL itself.

To read the whole documentation in one file, open llms-full.txt. For a short index of every page, open llms.txt.
