What it does

The moment a customer starts an Intercom conversation, this workflow retrieves the single most relevant Confluence help article and uses OpenAI to draft a concise reply grounded strictly in that article, with the source link included. The draft lands as an internal note so a teammate edits and sends it rather than auto-replying.

When to use it

Use this for live or near-live chat support where speed matters but you do not want a bot speaking unsupervised. It gives teammates a ready-to-send first response built only from approved documentation.

How it works

  1. 1A new Intercom conversation fires the trigger.
  2. 2OpenAI extracts the question and the key terms from the opening message.
  3. 3The flow searches Confluence and pulls the top article's content.
  4. 4A logic step checks the match is strong enough to be useful; weak matches are skipped.
  5. 5OpenAI drafts a short reply grounded only in that article, with the link cited.
  6. 6The draft is posted as an internal note on the Intercom conversation for review.
