What it does

Unifies Front conversations that are really one customer asking one thing through two inboxes — for example an email follow-up to a chat they started earlier. It keeps the email thread as the home of record and pulls the chat messages in, then tells the team.

When to use it

Use it when your team runs both an email inbox and a chat inbox in Front and the same customer regularly appears in both, causing double-handling or conflicting replies.

How it works

  1. 1A new or updated Front conversation triggers the run.
  2. 2The flow searches Front for other open conversations sharing the contact's email or handle from the last 48 hours.
  3. 3A logic step decides whether they are the same issue using sender identity and recent activity overlap; if not, it exits quietly.
  4. 4The matching chat conversation is merged into the email conversation in Front, carrying over comments and assignee.
  5. 5It posts a Slack message to the support channel summarizing which conversations were linked and the owning agent.
