Sharing Calanders with Teammates

Hi, I have a calander linked to my email address that I am able to share with my teammates. It appears as avi@zervtek.com, but I also have a couple of additional calanders that my teammates cannot add because it does not show up in the “Find People” search bar.  If that’s not possible, is there a way to have a shared calander that we can all access and add/subtract items from?Thanks in advance!

Old Email suddenly showing up

HelloEvery once in a while we have an old email show up in our personal inbox. When I review the conversation details, I can see the conversation shows “Reopened in office 365 Inbox.” This is odd, because for the person that this happened to most recently has not opened outlook at all. We connect Front through Office 365. So, we are trying to understand what “Reopened in office 365 inbox” means so we can prevent it from happening again.Thanks

Message Templates - Folders

Hello everyone! I’m very new to Front and i’m currently playing around with all the features but I can’t seem to find how put Message Templates and organise them into folders. Is it also possible to organise the folders into workplaces so only certain departments can access specific templates? Thanks in advance!

Front auto archives emails those assigned to anyone else

Hello everyone, I am facing a problem with Front, when ever I assign an email that is left unassigned or change the assignee name then front automatically archiving the email.Not really sure if I changed something lately in the settings or this is as part of new updates in front.This is very frustrating after assigning the email to someone, I also have to click Unarchive in my email in order to bring the email back to my shared section. I appreciate if you can share any work around or some sort of setting which could solve the issue

Getting Started with Front - Best Advice for New Hires

I am brand new to my organization (and to Front), and am really looking forward to using the platform. Being new, I don’t really know where to start. Setting up tags and rules seems super helpful, but I am not familiar enough with my company’s process to know what to expect. Does anyone have any advice for brand new team members? Thanks all!

Number of Assigned to Me conversations not displaying correctly

I have a couple of team members that when I look at their assigned conversations - one of them has 53 and the other has 12. However, from their view they only have 2 or 3. These old conversations show to not be archived from my view but if you are logged in to their account they are not there. Has anyone experienced this? I don’t know how to correct it.

Historical Conversations Best Practices Views and Tags

Historical Conversations Best Practices Views and Tags Is it best to audit and apply tags prior to or after migration? If keywords can be used to create a search and then apply tags for past conversations, then after the tags are applied, conversations with those tags will be visible in the Tags Report, correct? Is it best practice to create a View for Historical Conversations? If Nested Tags do not display in the analytics dashboard itself, should they be be used at all, or are their specific use cases for a Nested tag, if they are not displayed in the analytics dashboard?Nested tags in AnalyticsThe tag path will be displayed in any tag dropdown menu, however, the tag path will not display in the analytics dashboard itself.

Help article for setting up SendGrid DNS Records on AWS needs to be updated

Hey, the AWS Route 53 interface has changed and no longer has a Create Record Set button for creating a record, and instead only has a Create Record button. This can cause confusion to new users setting this up since help article in Front (https://help.front.com/en/articles/2292) shows a screenshot containing the “Create Record Set” button. I was following the help guide so it took me some time to figure out that the AWS interface has changed

What are some best tips for getting your team off of gmail and onto Front?

We are hosting a Front Lunch and Learn and a Front-hosted training but I am already hearing some pushback from users that like their set up and flow in gmail. Any tips on encouraging and setting expectations would be great! Also- any specific pushbacks you’ve heard and how you handled that I can prepare for! Thank you!

Email introduction

Hello, everyone. Another email post from me. We are starting to introduce Front to our company. We have a wide variety of users. Some have preferred Outlook, while others have preferred Gmail. Any tips on how to convert them into Front when it’s this diverse? As usual most people don’t like change, but I know Front could be more beneficial for them to use, but just curious to see what has worked, or challenges others have faced when releasing Front within a company.

Shortcuts

Hello, I am still pretty fresh to Front, and have reviewed some conversations on shortcuts, plus the training. Something that would be nice (unless I completely missed it), would be custom tag shortcuts (similar to Outlook). Our users are used to Outlook and most of them have shortcuts to send emails to specific folders. It would be nice if we could customize shortcuts for that. When on an email instead of using Ctrl + E to archive if I could customize a shortcut “Ctrl + 1” to tag and archive an email.
