Why teams connect Atlassian and Front

Stop re-entering the same information in Atlassian and Front: Stacksync keeps the records they share consistent in real time, in both directions.

Support and engineering teams connect Atlassian and Front so customer conversations and the work they generate stay linked. Front Conversations that surface bugs or requests become Jira Issues, and Jira status flows back so agents can update Contacts without pinging engineering. Comments stay threaded on both sides.

Stacksync syncs Users and Groups, Confluence Pages, Confluence Spaces, Jira Issues in Atlassian with Messages, Comments, Contacts, Accounts in Front in real time. You choose which records overlap, map the fields that should match, and pick a direction or let changes flow both ways. From then on, an update made in either tool is reflected in the other within seconds, without exports or copy-paste.

Because the sync is field-level, each tool keeps its own extras; only the shared data is held in agreement.

Common use cases

  • 01 Notify Front Contacts when the Jira Issue behind their Conversation ships.
  • 02 Prioritize Boards and Sprints using the volume of Front Conversations linked to each Issue.
  • 03 Route escalations by Front Inbox to the right Jira Project automatically.
  • 04 Create Jira issues from records in other systems, such as onboarding tasks generated from a closed-won CRM deal.

Common sync patterns

Conversation-to-issue escalation

a Front Conversation escalates into a Jira Issue with Messages and Attachments carried over.

Status back to the inbox

Jira Issue status and Issue Comments sync to Front Comments so agents see progress inside the Conversation.

Account-level bug view

Jira Issues roll up to Front Accounts so teams see all open engineering work per customer.

What you can sync between Atlassian and Front

Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.

Atlassian objects Front objects How this pairing syncs
Custom Fields Instance-specific fields (customfield IDs) that carry most business-specific data in syncs. Tags Labels applied to conversations; drive routing and category-level analytics. Custom Fields is specific to Atlassian and Tags to Front — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Atlassian and Front

Each direction of the sync is driven by what the source system can signal and what the destination accepts — detection, delivery, and expected latency below.

Atlassian Front Sub-second propagation

DetectionAtlassian notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks on issue and page events, plus JQL polling on the updated timestamp for backfill.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Front through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.
