How (can) I sync Front and Google Contacts on an ongoing basis?

Question

My main channel is a Google Workspace account. Ultimately, I want to be able to WhatsApp my Front contacts. In order to get a contact into WhatsApp, I think I need to get it onto my iPhone. My iPhone automatically syncs with Google Contacts in my Google Workspace account.

However, when I add a contact to Front with a phone number, it does not transfer to Google Contacts, and thus it does not get into WhatsApp. Is there a way to get Google Contacts synced with Front on an ongoing basis?

Hi there! Cat here from the Front support team 🌻

I’m afraid Front does not currently support syncing Google contacts. To import contacts, you would need to add them manually, with a CSV import or use the Front API: Understanding Front contacts.

Alternately, you can use one of our supported CRM connections.

Cheers,
Cat
