# Log customer feedback as a note on the contact

Feedback lands as a note on the customer's Intercom record, so the next agent to open the conversation has the context.

When this happens

New submission on your "Customer feedback" form

Do this

Add Note to Contact in Intercom with the rating, the comments, and the improvement the customer asked for

One-directional. A submission triggers the action — nothing is written back into your form.

Feedback that lives in a survey export is feedback nobody reads at the moment it matters. This recipe attaches each response to the person who wrote it, as a note on their Intercom contact, where it sits beside their conversation history.

Customer success reps lean on it before renewal calls and escalations. The satisfaction score and the improvement request are visible on the record itself, so an agent picking up a chat can see the last thing this customer told you without leaving the inbox.

## Setting it up

1.  1
    
    Publish the feedback form with Email Address required — a note has to attach to a known contact, and the email address is what finds them.
    
2.  2
    
    In Zapier, use formformform's "New Submission" trigger and select the feedback form.
    
3.  3
    
    Add Intercom's "Create or Update Contact" action mapped to Email Address, so feedback from someone new still has a record to land on.
    
4.  4
    
    Add Intercom's "Add Note to Contact" action and point it at the contact produced by the previous step.
    
5.  5
    
    Write the note body as a short block: Overall Satisfaction first, then the recommendation score, then the two free-text answers underneath.
    
6.  6
    
    Label every line in the note body — a bare number in an Intercom note means nothing to the agent reading it three weeks later.
    
7.  7
    
    Send a test response with a low score, open the contact in Intercom, check the note reads clearly, then turn the Zap on.
    

## What maps where

Using the [Customer Feedback Form](https://www.formformform.com/templates/customer-feedback-form) as the starting point. These are its real fields — swap in your own and the mapping works the same way.

Form field

Intercom

Email Address

Finds the Intercom contact the note attaches to

Name

Contact name, used when the person is new to Intercom

Overall Satisfaction

First line of the note body

How likely are you to recommend us to a friend or colleague?

Recommendation score line in the note

What could we improve?

The request, quoted in the note body

What did you like most?

Note body, below the request

## Variations worth knowing

Escalate low scores to a conversation

Add a Zapier path on Overall Satisfaction. Scores at the bottom of the scale run "Create a Conversation" as well as the note, which puts an unhappy customer in front of an agent instead of leaving the feedback to be found later.

Keep a score you can segment on

Alongside the note, map the recommendation answer into a custom contact attribute. The note holds the full text for a human to read, and the attribute gives you a value Intercom segments and messages can filter on.

## If something isn't arriving

Notes attach to the wrong person

Intercom finds contacts by email, so a typo or a shared team address puts the note on somebody else's record. Make Email Address required, ask for it near the top of the form, and check the Zap history in Zapier when a note turns up somewhere unexpected.

The note is there but reads as a wall of text

Zapier passes long answers through unchanged. Put a labelled line break between each mapped field in the note body, and keep the free-text answers last so the score is still readable in the first line.

## Frequently asked questions

Can the customer see the note in Intercom?

No. Notes are internal to your workspace and visible only to your team. The customer sees nothing unless an agent replies in a conversation. If you want them to hear back, add a conversation step alongside the note.

Does anonymous feedback work with this?

Not as a note. A note has to attach to a contact, and a contact needs an email address. If your form allows anonymous responses, add a Zapier filter so those stop before the Intercom step and stay in your responses list.

How many notes pile up on someone who responds often?

One per submission, kept in date order on the contact. That history is usually the point. If it does get noisy, filter the Zap so only scores below a threshold, or responses that include free text, create a note at all.

The automation needs somewhere to fire from. Publish a form, connect it once, and every submission from then on runs this flow.
