Import message
Use this endpoint to import conversations into Front without sending data through a channel. Typical use cases include importing historical conversations or creating new conversations from non-standard sources, such as web form submissions that can't use the default Form channel (for example, forms that don't have static URLs or form providers that send email notifications after submission). Avoid using this endpoint for conversations that can be handled by a dedicated Front channel—instead, use the [Create message](https://dev.frontapp.com/reference/create-message) endpoint to send (rather than import) a new message.
Link conversations
Adds conversations to the link group of the conversation in the path, which becomes the original conversation of the group. If it belongs to no group yet, a new one is formed. A conversation belongs to at most one group, and a conversation that was linked to another one cannot become an original conversation.

Built for the way you actually work
No code, no engineers
Connect in a few clicks and start using your AI right away. If you can use the apps you already love, you can do this.
Sounds like you, not like a bot
Train your AI on your offer, your voice, and the way you actually talk to clients — it picks up where you leave off.
Plugs into the stack you already use
No need to rip out your CRM, your scheduler, or your email tool. Your AI works inside the apps running your business today.
Your data stays yours
Client conversations, lists, and credentials are scoped to your workspace. Nothing gets shared, sold, or used to train anyone else’s AI.
What you can do once Front is connected
Onboard new clients without lifting a finger
When someone signs up, your AI greets them, sets up their next step in Front, and keeps the momentum going — even at 2am.
Reply to leads in seconds, not days
Your AI watches Front for new inquiries, answers questions in your voice, and books the call before they cool off.
Get your weekends back
Hand off the repetitive Front work — follow-ups, reminders, updates, simple admin — and stop being the bottleneck in your own business.

Questions other Front users had before signing up
Do I need to know how to code?
Not even a little. If you can use Front today, you can set this up. You'll connect Front, tell your AI what it should help with, and you're live. The whole thing is built for coaches, course creators, agencies, and operators — not engineers.
Will my clients know they're talking to an AI?
Only if you want them to. Your FormWise AI is trained on your voice, your offer, and the way you actually communicate — so it sounds like a thoughtful team member, not a clunky chatbot. Most people can't tell.
Can I make it sound like me?
Yes. You can give your AI examples of how you write, the questions you usually ask new clients, the way you handle objections, and the language you use about your offer. The more you give it, the more it sounds like you wrote it.
What if I want to take over a conversation?
You're always in control. You can step in at any point, take over from your AI, or stop it from sending messages until you've reviewed them. Think of it as a teammate, not a replacement.
Is my client data safe?
Yes. Your Front login and client information stay scoped to your workspace. We don't sell it, we don't share it, and we don't use your data to train anyone else's AI. You can disconnect Front or delete everything any time.
What happens when Front updates their app?
We handle it. When Front adds new features or changes how something works, we update the integration in the background. You don't have to do anything — your AI just keeps working.
How fast can I actually get this running?
Most people are up and running the same day they sign up. Connecting Front takes a few minutes. Teaching your AI to handle the work the way you'd want it done is the part worth slowing down for.
What is FormWise?
FormWise is the AI agent builder for coaches, course creators, and agencies. You connect the apps you already use — like Front — train your AI on your offer and voice, and let it handle the work you've been doing manually: onboarding, follow-ups, support, admin. No code, no developers, no engineering team required.
Can I sell AI agents to my clients?
Yes. A lot of FormWise users build AI assistants and sell them as part of their offer — done-for-you AI setups, white-label assistants for client businesses, custom GPTs trained on a client's brand. You can charge a setup fee, a monthly retainer, or both.
Can I embed my AI on my website or in my course?
Yes. Every AI you build in FormWise can be embedded on your site, dropped into your course platform, or shared as a standalone link. Your clients and students just open it like any other web page — no app to download, no login hoops.
Do I need to know anything about AI to use this?
No. If you can describe what you want your AI to do in plain English — "greet new clients, ask these 3 questions, book them a call" — FormWise can build it. We handle the models, the prompts, the connections. You handle the part you already know: what your business actually needs.
About Front on FormWise
Front is a shared inbox and collaboration platform that centralizes customer communications from multiple channels, enabling teams to manage emails, chats, and more
Connect Front once and your FormWise AI gets 180 things it can do inside it. That means your AI can handle the Front work in your business — the messages, the updates, the follow-ups, the admin — the way you would, just faster and around the clock.
You don't need to know how any of it works under the hood. We take care of keeping the connection alive, retrying if something fails, and making sure your data only ever moves where you tell it to.
