Why teams connect Front and Supabase

Mirror Front's data into Supabase 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 Supabase.

Stacksync mirrors Messages, Comments, Contacts, Accounts from Front into Views, Schemas, auth.users, Row Level Security Policies in Supabase 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

  • Mirror conversations tagged for escalation into engineering trackers through the synced database.
  • Feed CSAT and SLA reporting from synced conversation events rather than manual exports.
  • Mirror billing and subscription records into Supabase tables the application can join directly
  • Reflect auth.users state into support and CRM systems so teams see account status without querying the database

Read Front with a query

Records from Front are ordinary rows in Supabase; join them, index them, and use them in application logic without touching the vendor API.

Automate Front from your codebase

Write to the synced tables in Supabase 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 Supabase, so triggers, jobs, and services can respond in near real time.

What you can sync between Front and Supabase

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 Supabase objects
Channels Connected addresses (email, SMS, chat); define where messages originate and send from. JSONB Columns Semi-structured payloads such as event properties or nested objects.
Conversations The central threaded unit that messages, comments, and tags attach to; synced for support analytics. Database Functions Postgres functions that can transform or validate synced rows.
Messages Inbound and outbound emails, chats, and SMS within a conversation; read out for response-time reporting. Storage Object Metadata File metadata rows that can be joined to synced application data.
Comments Internal team notes on conversations; usually read-only in syncs. Tables Standard Postgres tables; the primary two-way sync target.
Contacts People across channels; matched to CRM contacts, with custom fields carrying external context. Views Read-side projections exposed to outbound syncs.
Accounts Company groupings of contacts; kept aligned with CRM accounts. Schemas Namespaces (public and custom) that scope sync access.

How the Front and Supabase connectors work

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.
Front setup guide

Supabase

Integration surface
Direct PostgreSQL wire protocol connection, plus an auto-generated REST API (PostgREST)
Authentication
Database credentials (connection string) for SQL access; API keys (anon / service role) for the REST layer
Change detection
Log-based CDC via Postgres logical replication, the same WAL feed that powers Supabase Realtime; database webhooks can also fire on row changes
Capabilities
read · write · CDC · webhooks
Rate limits
SQL access is bounded by connection limits (pooled connections are provided); the REST layer is subject to the platform's limits
