Front users

Hello.Is there a way to remove the unused, standard, fields when viewing contacts in Shared Contacts? For example, a clients X handle is not something we need to track and it pushes the Shared Contacts custom fields we do want to track lower or off scree entirely.Maybe being able to sort the order of all of the fields would work as well. Where we just move the fields we are not using to the end.Thank you!

I just finished setting up our front platform and hopefully it is set for launch date! Any advice on what’s the best CRM tool available as a plugin for us to use? 

It is not easy to see the difference between an incoming email and an outgoing one.Is there a way to make it more obvious ? Maybe using colours ?

I am not receiving any email notifications on my Mac, using the Front 3.57.5 app. I have enabled all notifications in the app. I have enabled banner notifications on my Mac. I do receive Front calendar notifications with no problem, but never any email notifications. The closest I get is a badge on the icon. Any thoughts here? 

Hello Community, I wondering if there is a way to get tag filters to show tabs like the shared inbox does? See attached images for reference.Shared inbox Tag selected from sidebar to filter email in shared inbox Thanks

Everyone seems to be talking about BIMI for better brand recognition and verification/ trust for those receiving your company emails. Does front offer BIMI within the app? or is there another way of implementing it?

My company utilizes teams for internal communications for items that may not need a full request or ticket started.  Are there plans on the Front Roadmap to allow communications with Teams channels? We’re exploring some custom projects to unify our communication channels and need to determine if it is worth the lift. 

My company is still working through the initial rollout of Front, and for the most part it is going well. We have some users complaining of a delay between emails hitting their old Outlook client through an 0365 channel and showing in Front. We’ve done some testing and have not been able to replicate.  I found some discussions on SMTP rate limiting, but I am curious-- are delays with retrieving emails from O365 a known issue?

We have a large number of email templates created by various employees over time, and we want to clean them up. It would be more efficient if we could export the templates into an Excel sheet for easier review. Does anyone know how this can be done or have alternative suggestions? This would be a huge time-saver for our team. Thank you!

The ability to see how many conversations are under the Open and Waiting tabs. Preferably directly in the interface. This is quite critical for us in customer service management.Would it be possible to add this?  

Hello, I may have missed this point during the Academy training, but when you Archive emails using Front, does that also sync those actions with the connected channel inbox?  Or is archiving specific to the Front platform and does not affect the channel email inbox? Hopefully this makes sense, thank you for any insight!

I am running into an issue setting up my 1st macro where the forwarded email I'm trying to automatically push via a macro step to our support team (currently in Zendesk ticketing system) is not getting received by Support. Upon further investigation it appears that the email in Zendesk is held in suspension due to “Automated response email” and Zendesk doesn’t appear to allow any solution around this. Can you advise on any workarounds? I thought about creating a message reply template where it cc’s our support team however I realized a message template does not provide any option to add in a cc address.  

I am trying to link the Slack message created by the Send to Slack option, but I cannot figure out how to do that. I would like to either see the Slack conversation in the Front conversation or, at minimum, see a link to the Slack message in the Front conversation. Is there a way to do that?  

I am looking to snooze conversation when a specific tag is applied.  I cannot seem to find a way to set this up.   Can this be done?

Will macros currently set up in the team inbox eventually be allowed to use in individual inboxes? Our customer base tends to first reach out to the CSMs first and we are trying to transition them over to our Support team so responses are quite repetitive during this transition period and having macros that are currently applied in our shared inbox be allowed to be used in personal inbox would be very helpful 

Hello all, I am working on setting up an integration between Talkdesk and Front.  It seems this will allow me to pull in call data from Talkdesk, but I was wondering if anyone else is using this integration and what are some of the best use cases you’ve found with this integration. Thanks!

Hi Front Community!I have just moved my teams into Front over two weeks ago, everything is going smoothly but I would like them to use more the Discussions tools in Front to communicate between them, instead of Teams.The challenge I have is that we are collaborating with many teams in our business not using Fromt and using Teams, so it is difficult for my teams to understand why they should use the Discussions channels. How do you compete with MS Teams for your teams to use Front? And what tools we could be using to attract them into Front Discussions?Thanks 

Hello! I’d like to know if there is a way to view the threads that we’ve assigned to another team member? I’m asking this because I also want to keep track of the threads that I’ve assigned to another team member and follow up with them in case they are not responsive, may have forgotten to respond, or if they’ve accidentally archived the thread. I’ve had experiences where I’ve assigned a thread to a team member but they don’t always get back or respond right away, and I would end up forgetting about it. It’d be great to know where we can view these threads in one list just so there is at least one person to keep an eye on the thread in case the one assigned is busy. Thanks for the help!
