What it does

When a customer who also chats in Intercom writes into your Front inbox, this flow pulls their recent Intercom conversation history, summarizes the open threads, and drafts a Front reply that acknowledges what they already discussed. The result is a continuous experience across both channels instead of a cold restart.

When to use it

Use it when you run live chat in Intercom and email or social support in Front, and customers bounce between the two. Ideal for reducing the maddening "as I already explained" friction and giving agents full cross-channel context in the draft.

How it works

  1. 1A new Front conversation triggers the flow.
  2. 2The sender's email is used to fetch recent Intercom conversations.
  3. 3A branch skips enrichment when no prior Intercom history exists.
  4. 4OpenAI summarizes the prior threads and drafts a context-aware Front reply.
  5. 5The draft plus a short context note is saved to the Front conversation for the agent.
