# Instant Integration: Intercom

> Set up the Sendspark Intercom Chrome extension to record and share personalized video messages with your customers directly from Intercom.

Sendspark makes it easy to support customers in Intercom faster with video messages. Install the Sendspark Chrome Extension and the purple Sendspark icon appears in your Intercom compose window. Click it to record a new video, finish by clicking the extension icon in your browser toolbar, then click Insert Video to drop it into your conversation.

## Key takeaways

* You must have the Sendspark Chrome Extension installed and be using a Chrome browser to see the Sendspark icon in Intercom.
* The purple Sendspark icon appears in the Intercom compose window, next to the native Intercom options.
* Besides recording, the icon lets you Request a Video, Meet Now, Send a Calendar link, Add your Last Recording, or open your Video Library.
* If you edit the video page, you leave Intercom for Sendspark and then insert the video by copying and pasting the share link instead of using Insert Video.
