  • OutputTag VIP and alert account owner in SlackSlack

What it does

Not every ticket should be treated the same. This flow inspects each new Front conversation, checks whether the sender is a VIP or flagged at-risk account, and for those it drafts a more careful, high-touch reply, applies a VIP tag, and pings the named account owner in Slack so the right person handles it personally.

When to use it

Use it when a slow or generic reply to a key account could cost a renewal. Good for teams with named account owners who need to be looped in the moment a strategic customer writes in, rather than discovering it hours later in a shared queue.

How it works

  1. 1A new Front conversation triggers the flow.
  2. 2The sender is matched against a CRM list of VIP and at-risk accounts.
  3. 3A branch ends the flow quietly for non-VIP senders and continues for matches.
  4. 4OpenAI drafts a high-touch, account-aware reply and saves it as a Front draft.
  5. 5The conversation is tagged VIP and the account owner is notified in Slack with a link.
