Front users

Many users are reporting that when they search their inbox/shared inbox for a specific tag, emails show up that don’t have this tag. Why would this be?

We currently utilize the platform “Acadia” to house all policies, procedures, onboarding and training. I’m curious if anyone in the community has experience with Acadia and has effectively integrated Front and Acadia. What specific workflows or automations were most effective? What integration tools or methods did you use to connect Front and Acadia? Did you come across any limitations or data sync issues when connecting the two systems? What key take-aways would you offer to a company looking towards this integration?

HI! What is the best way for a team with multiple supervisors to manage SLA Breaches? Should we subscribe all supervisors to those emails once the SLA tag/rule is trigger? Should we create views instead based on certain inboxes? Or should we create customer inbox fields for Inbox owner/supervisor and set up a rule to send SLA breaches to only inbox owner ?

Hi,I have had front in my company for 10 years, however, I never really understood all the capabilities. I now need to figure out of I can actually work like I want with multiple inboxes, and actual shared inboxing across my small organization. Is it possible to find a freelance engineer, who can assist me with the things I wan’t to do?Simon

HI! Is it possible to upload an Excel file that shows our transit time for delivery lanes into Front Knowledge base and then have that information auto-populate/suggest response into an email response based on the email containing “transit time”? 

I am wondering if anyone has found an easier way to navigate through the Auto-Created Customer Contacts? At this point, the only option I am seeing is to scroll from top to bottom. Is there currently a more efficient way to search through this list, aside from exporting and filtering?

We can make individual message templates available to specific inboxes — is there a way to do the same for entire template folders? Thanks for your help!   

So far I see only one discussion on desktop vs browser, so I am here to ask if there is a resource to give a full comparison on the differences between the two. I notice the training course deals with the web browser and I am curious how the behavior differs when creating tags. in the browser there are toggles to show in conversation and allow all inboxes. alternatively the desktop only gives an option to specify teammates that can use the tags. allowing all does not seem to be achievable efficiently. so where can i read on the distinction between applications? 

Hi All,How can I create an auto-response in Front that sends an email to the client, informing them that their ticket has been created and assigned to a consultant?PS: Keep in mind that we have a number of consultants, so the system (front) should automatically select the assigned consultant and insert their name into the auto-response.

I am able to receive emails in Front and reply in Gmail. But when I try to reply in Front I get an ‘unable to send’ error. What is the issue? 

How’s everyone feeling about the new update? Personally, I’m struggling to find the value of the changes compared to the old model. Search bar moved, requiring extra clicks New layout sorting by “Open” and “Done”, then broken out by assigned/subscribed/inbox seems unhelpful. Additional time required to find archive. I like tasks--nice that the new layout allows filtering by tasks and discussions, however-- Discussions as a standalone category was nice.  Dropdown list for Inbox/Calendar/Settings/Analytics seems too hidden, easier when the icons were listed out at the top.  Objects condensed: I built a dynamic variable automatically linking a URL to the top of emails, but that is now condensed into an object icon instead of displaying the link at the very top.  I always give updates a chance a commit instead of reverting to old settings. I’m hoping its an evolving update, I realize this is the first iteration. 

Hello!I wanted to create a rule with a ‘Rule set data’ using keywords to assign to a specific teammate who are on Front, but there are some keyword rules that should forward the email to a teammate who are not on Front. Is there a way to create one rule, Where keywords are triggered and assigns to a teammate                                orKeywords are triggered but forwards the email to a teammate who are not on Front.or is creating two different rules is my only option?  

Hi, Is it possible to generate a list of all the emails I’m subscribed (not assigned) to? For example, if I go on holidays and have a ton of emails subscribed but not assigned then I come back to a sea of emails - UGH! I would like to get a view or list to see what I’m subscribed to so I can manage it. Is this possible? I have tried the subscribed in the side panel but nothing appears here. What is the purpose of the subscribed on the sidebar?
