Why teams connect Elasticsearch and Front
Mirror Front's data into Elasticsearch so your own code can read and write it like any other table, with changes flowing both ways in seconds.
Engineers integrate with tools like Front through APIs, which means auth, pagination, rate limits, webhooks, and retry logic, all maintained forever and all different for every tool. Meanwhile the data would be trivial to use if it simply lived in Elasticsearch.
Stacksync mirrors Comments, Contacts, Accounts, Inboxes from Front into Documents, Index mappings, Aliases, Data streams in Elasticsearch and keeps both sides in sync in real time. Your services query the database directly, and inserts or updates your code makes flow back into Front, so the tool and the database never disagree.
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 product catalog data from an ERP or commerce database into Elasticsearch for storefront search.
- Mirror support tickets into an index used for full-text search and agent-assist tooling.
Automate Front from your codebase
Write to the synced tables in Elasticsearch and Stacksync propagates the change into Front, replacing custom integration code.
React to changes as they happen
Updates in Front arrive as row changes in Elasticsearch, so triggers, jobs, and services can respond in near real time.
One integration pattern for the whole stack
Every synced tool looks the same from the database, so each new integration is configuration, not a new codebase.
What you can sync between Elasticsearch 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.
| Elasticsearch objects | Front objects | |
|---|---|---|
| Ingest pipelines Server-side transforms applied to documents as a sync writes them. | Teammates Agents; used for ownership mapping and workload reporting. | |
| Index templates Reusable settings and mappings applied automatically to new indices a sync creates. | Channels Connected addresses (email, SMS, chat); define where messages originate and send from. | |
| Indices Target containers for synced records; each holds a table-like collection of JSON documents. | Conversations The central threaded unit that messages, comments, and tags attach to; synced for support analytics. | |
| Documents The unit of sync; JSON records created, updated, and deleted by _id. | Messages Inbound and outbound emails, chats, and SMS within a conversation; read out for response-time reporting. | |
| Index mappings Field type definitions that determine how synced fields are indexed and queried. | Comments Internal team notes on conversations; usually read-only in syncs. | |
| Aliases Stable read/write names that let a sync cut over between index versions without downtime. | Contacts People across channels; matched to CRM contacts, with custom fields carrying external context. |

How the Elasticsearch and Front connectors work
Elasticsearch
- Integration surface
- REST API (JSON over HTTP)
- Authentication
- API keys or basic authentication; Elastic Cloud also issues service account tokens
- Change detection
- Polling on timestamp or sequence fields; Elasticsearch does not expose a native change feed or webhooks
- Capabilities
- read · write
- Rate limits
- No fixed request quota; throughput is bounded by cluster sizing, thread pools, and bulk queue capacity
Front
- Integration surface
- REST API (Core API)
- Authentication
- OAuth authorization via the Stacksync UI ("Connections" > "create new connection" > "Front" > "Authorize") — no coding required
- Change detection
- Application webhooks and rule-triggered webhooks, with the events endpoint available for polling
- Capabilities
- read · write · webhooks
- Rate limits
- Request limits vary by plan.
How it works

FAQ
Elasticsearch and Front integration FAQ
-
Yes. Stacksync provides a managed, real-time two-way integration between Elasticsearch and Front: authenticate both systems, choose the objects to sync (such as Elasticsearch's Ingest pipelines and Index templates), map fields visually, and changes propagate both ways in milliseconds — no code required.
-
Common patterns for Elasticsearch and Front: Automate Front from your codebase; React to changes as they happen; One integration pattern for the whole stack. Write to the synced tables in Elasticsearch and Stacksync propagates the change into Front, replacing custom integration code.
-
Elasticsearch: REST API (JSON over HTTP). Authentication: API keys or basic authentication; Elastic Cloud also issues service account tokens. Front: REST API (Core API). Authentication: OAuth authorization via the Stacksync UI ("Connections" > "create new connection" > "Front" > "Authorize") — no coding required. Stacksync manages authentication, retries, and rate limits on both sides.
-
Front: Docs do not state change-detection mechanism, sync directions, or write-back specifics for Front. Elasticsearch: Optimistic concurrency uses _seq_no and _primary_term instead of row locks, which matters when two writers touch the same document. Stacksync's field mapping accounts for these differences between Elasticsearch and Front without custom code.
-
Stacksync is SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certified with HIPAA BAA support. Data is encrypted in transit, and a zero-persistent-storage architecture means Elasticsearch and Front records are not retained after a sync operation.
-
Stacksync pricing is usage-based and starts at $1,000/month, including the managed Elasticsearch and Front connectors, real-time two-way sync, monitoring, and support. That replaces building and maintaining a custom Elasticsearch–Front integration in-house.
