Why teams connect Affinity and Front

Sync what happens in Front with the customer records in Affinity, in real time and in both directions.

The CRM is supposed to be the record of every customer relationship, but customer-relevant information also accumulates in the other tools a team runs. Whatever Front holds or produces that touches a customer, whether conversations, payments, replies, enriched data, or notes, the CRM only benefits if it arrives without someone copying it over.

Stacksync connects Teammates, Channels, Conversations, Messages in Front to Interactions, Reminders, Lists, List Entries in Affinity with bi-directional, real-time sync. Activity and record changes in Front update the matching contact or account in Affinity, and CRM data flows the other way wherever Front can store and use it.

Common use cases

  • Sync conversations, messages, and tags into Postgres for response-time and volume analytics across inboxes.
  • Write CRM account tier, owner, and renewal data into Front contact and account custom fields so it shows next to the conversation.
  • Push enrichment data computed elsewhere into Affinity field values on list entries.
  • Keep introductions and relationship data from Affinity aligned with outreach tools used by the team.

Where Front can store CRM context: fields kept current

Owner, lifecycle stage, or account details from Affinity sync into Front, so people working there have the context without switching tools.

Where Front handles support or shared inboxes

Tickets and conversations attach to the right contact and account in Affinity, so sales sees open issues before the next call.

Where Front supplies contact or company data

Enriched fields land directly on records in Affinity, and refreshes keep them from going stale.

What you can sync between Affinity and Front

Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.

Affinity objects Front objects
Reminders Follow-up tasks associated with people and organizations. Channels Connected addresses (email, SMS, chat); define where messages originate and send from.
Lists Pipelines (deal flow, fundraising, portfolio) that structure most Affinity data; syncs usually target a specific list. Conversations The central threaded unit that messages, comments, and tags attach to; synced for support analytics.
List Entries The membership of a person, organization, or opportunity on a list, carrying its list-specific fields. Messages Inbound and outbound emails, chats, and SMS within a conversation; read out for response-time reporting.
Persons Contact records enriched with relationship intelligence, synced with CRMs and outreach tools. Comments Internal team notes on conversations; usually read-only in syncs.
Organizations Company records matched to accounts in other systems by domain. Contacts People across channels; matched to CRM contacts, with custom fields carrying external context.
Opportunities Deal records tracked on lists and synced with pipeline reporting. Accounts Company groupings of contacts; kept aligned with CRM accounts.
