Front

Use Front's API to manage conversations, read/send messages, and collaborate with team comments.

Setup

Get your API token from Front → Settings → Developers → API Tokens. Store it in ~/.clawdbot/clawdbot.json:

json
{
  "skills": {
    "entries": {
      "front": {
        "apiKey": "YOUR_FRONT_API_TOKEN"
      }
    }
  }
}

Or set env: FRONT_API_TOKEN=your_token

Quick Reference

bash
{baseDir}/scripts/front.sh inboxes

List Conversations

bash
{baseDir}/scripts/front.sh conversations [inbox_id]      # Active conversations (unassigned + assigned)
{baseDir}/scripts/front.sh conversations --all           # Include archived
{baseDir}/scripts/front.sh conversations --archived      # Archived only
{baseDir}/scripts/front.sh conversations --unassigned    # Unassigned only
{baseDir}/scripts/front.sh conversations --assigned      # Assigned only
{baseDir}/scripts/front.sh conversations --limit 200     # Increase result limit (default: 100)

{baseDir}/scripts/front.sh add-comment <conversation_id> "Your team note here"

Reply to Conversation

# With --draft flag to save as draft instead of sending:
{baseDir}/scripts/front.sh reply <conversation_id> "Draft message" --draft

Common Workflows

Daily inbox review:

bash
# List unassigned open conversations
{baseDir}/scripts/front.sh conversations --unassigned --status open

Find customer conversations:

bash
{baseDir}/scripts/front.sh search "from:customer@company.com"

Add team context:

bash
{baseDir}/scripts/front.sh add-comment cnv_abc123 "Customer is VIP - handle with care"

Notes

  • API base: Auto-detected (company-specific, e.g., https://company.api.frontapp.com)
  • Auth: Bearer token in header
  • Rate limit: 120 requests/minute
  • Conversation IDs start with cnv_
  • Inbox IDs start with inb_
  • Always confirm before sending replies

API Limitations

  • No global search: The /conversations/search endpoint may return 404 depending on API plan
  • No global drafts: Drafts are stored per-conversation, not globally accessible
  • Conversations vs Inbox: By default shows non-archived/non-deleted conversations (open, unassigned, assigned)
