Install the JavaScript code

Or you can quickly grab it from here instead (note: if you copy the code below you will need to manually change your APP_ID):
<script>
var APP_ID = "APP_ID";
window.intercomSettings = {
app_id: APP_ID
};
</script>
<script>(function(){var w=window;var ic=w.Intercom;if(typeof ic==="function"){ic('reattach_activator');ic('update',intercomSettings);}else{var d=document;var i=function(){i.c(arguments)};i.q=[];i.c=function(args){i.q.push(args)};w.Intercom=i;function l(){var s=d.createElement('script');s.type='text/javascript';s.async=true;s.src='https://widget.intercom.io/widget/APP_ID';var x=d.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];x.parentNode.insertBefore(s,x);}if(w.attachEvent){w.attachEvent('onload',l);}else{w.addEventListener('load',l,false);}}})()</script>

What you need to know about installing Intercom on your website
How the cookie works with your browser
Installing Intercom on your website depends on the Messenger being able to create a first-party cookie for *.customer-domain.com. This will fail (with modern browsers) on *.customer-app.firebaseapp.com and *.customer-app.herokuapp.com, or any domain registered as a public suffix, https://publicsuffix.org.
How to keep your conversations private
Any user who shares a computer and browser will be able to see the most recently logged-in user’s conversation history until the cookie expires. You should call the Intercom shutdown method to clear your users’ conversations anytime they logout of your application.
Switching the Messenger on and off
The Messenger may be switched off by default for some users. To turn it on or off, go to Settings > App Settings > Messenger Settings.
Good thing to know - Your page loading speed will be increased because of Intercom chat by about 30%
