Why teams connect Front and Salesforce
Sync what happens in Front with the customer records in Salesforce, 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 Inboxes, Tags, Teammates, Channels in Front to Tasks and Events, Products and Price Books, Custom Objects, Accounts in Salesforce with bi-directional, real-time sync. Activity and record changes in Front update the matching contact or account in Salesforce, and CRM data flows the other way wherever Front can store and use it.
Common use cases
- Feed CSAT and SLA reporting from synced conversation events rather than manual exports.
- Sync conversations, messages, and tags into Postgres for response-time and volume analytics across inboxes.
- Sync Accounts, Contacts, and Opportunities bi-directionally with Postgres so engineering teams read and write CRM data with plain SQL.
- Write product usage metrics computed in a warehouse onto Account and Contact fields so reps see adoption signals on the record.
Where Front handles support or shared inboxes
Tickets and conversations attach to the right contact and account in Salesforce, so sales sees open issues before the next call.
Where Front supplies contact or company data
Enriched fields land directly on records in Salesforce, and refreshes keep them from going stale.
Where Front can store CRM context: fields kept current
Owner, lifecycle stage, or account details from Salesforce sync into Front, so people working there have the context without switching tools.
What you can sync between Front and Salesforce
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.
| Front objects | Salesforce objects | |
|---|---|---|
| Tags Labels applied to conversations; drive routing and category-level analytics. | Products and Price Books Catalog and pricing data; commonly mastered in an ERP and written into Salesforce. | |
| Teammates Agents; used for ownership mapping and workload reporting. | Custom Objects Org-specific tables with the __c suffix; discoverable via describe metadata so field mappings can be generated. | |
| Channels Connected addresses (email, SMS, chat); define where messages originate and send from. | Accounts Company records that anchor most syncs; typically mapped to customer tables in a database or ERP. | |
| Conversations The central threaded unit that messages, comments, and tags attach to; synced for support analytics. | Contacts People linked to Accounts; synced two-way with marketing, support, and warehouse person records. | |
| Messages Inbound and outbound emails, chats, and SMS within a conversation; read out for response-time reporting. | Leads Unqualified prospects; often written into Salesforce from enrichment or product-signup pipelines. | |
| Comments Internal team notes on conversations; usually read-only in syncs. | Opportunities Deal records with stage and amount; synced to databases for pipeline reporting and to ERPs at close. |

FAQ
Front and Salesforce integration FAQ
-
Yes. Stacksync provides a managed, real-time two-way integration between Front and Salesforce: authenticate both systems, choose the objects to sync (such as Front's Tags and Teammates), map fields visually, and changes propagate both ways in milliseconds — no code required.
-
Yes. Each object mapping can be bidirectional or restricted to a single direction (both systems accept writes). Read-only mirrors, one-way pushes, and full two-way sync can be mixed in the same integration.
-
Common patterns for Front and Salesforce: Where Front handles support or shared inboxes; Where Front supplies contact or company data; Where Front can store CRM context: fields kept current. Tickets and conversations attach to the right contact and account in Salesforce, so sales sees open issues before the next call.
-
Front: REST API (Core API). Authentication: OAuth authorization via the Stacksync UI ("Connections" > "create new connection" > "Front" > "Authorize") — no coding required. Salesforce: REST, SOAP, and Bulk APIs. Authentication: OAuth login via a Salesforce user (browser-based authorization flow); requires "API Enabled" permission for polling mode, plus "Author Apex" and "Customize Application" OR "Modify All Data" for trigger mode. 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. Salesforce: Records are queried with SOQL, and every standard and custom object carries a SystemModstamp field that sync engines use to order incremental changes. Stacksync's field mapping accounts for these differences between Front and Salesforce 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 Front and Salesforce records are not retained after a sync operation.
