Two-way sync
Changes in Drift or Front instantly reflect in both systems. No stale data, no manual imports.
Keep Drift and Front in sync without custom scripts. Cut weeks of integration work, eliminate silent data drift, and give your team a single, reliable source of truth.
The CRM is supposed to be the record of every customer relationship, but customer-relevant information also accumulates in the other tools a team runs. Whatever Front holds or produces that touches a customer, whether conversations, payments, replies, enriched data, or notes, the CRM only benefits if it arrives without someone copying it over.
Stacksync connects Messages, Comments, Contacts, Accounts in Front to Accounts, Users, Playbooks, Meetings in Drift with bi-directional, real-time sync. Activity and record changes in Front update the matching contact or account in Drift, and CRM data flows the other way wherever Front can store and use it.
Tickets and conversations attach to the right contact and account in Drift, so sales sees open issues before the next call.
Enriched fields land directly on records in Drift, and refreshes keep them from going stale.
Owner, lifecycle stage, or account details from Drift sync into Front, so people working there have the context without switching tools.
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.
| Drift objects | Front objects | |
|---|---|---|
| Messages Individual messages within a conversation, used for transcript and intent analysis. | Contacts People across channels; matched to CRM contacts, with custom fields carrying external context. | |
| Accounts Company records used for account-based routing and targeting. | Accounts Company groupings of contacts; kept aligned with CRM accounts. | |
| Users Agents and sales reps who own conversations and meetings. | Inboxes Shared queues that conversations live in; used to segment reporting by team or channel. | |
| Playbooks Bot flows that generate conversations and qualify visitors. | Tags Labels applied to conversations; drive routing and category-level analytics. | |
| Meetings Meetings booked through Drift, synced to CRM as sales activities. | Teammates Agents; used for ownership mapping and workload reporting. | |
| Contacts Visitor and lead records created or matched from chat identities; the main CRM-sync object. | Channels Connected addresses (email, SMS, chat); define where messages originate and send from. |
Real-time sync, workflow automation, event queues, EDI, and monitoring, for every Drift–Front connection.
Changes in Drift or Front instantly reflect in both systems. No stale data, no manual imports.

Transform legacy EDI complexity into simple database interactions between Drift and Front.
Configure and sync within minutes, no code. Whether you sync 50k or 100M+ records, Stacksync handles the queues, infra, and plumbing. Integrations are non-invasive and need zero setup on your systems.
Authenticate Drift and Front with each platform's native method — OAuth, API keys, or service accounts — plus secure options like SSH tunneling, IP whitelisting, and VPC peering.
Pick the Drift and Front objects to sync — Stacksync auto-detects both schemas, including custom fields where the platform exposes them. Sync to existing tables, or let Stacksync create new ones with ideal data types.
Fields map automatically even when names and types differ. Stacksync handles transformation and type casting for you, zero configuration required.
Yes. Stacksync provides a managed, real-time two-way integration between Drift and Front: authenticate both systems, choose the objects to sync (such as Drift's Messages and Accounts), map fields visually, and changes propagate both ways in milliseconds — no code required.
Change detection on Drift: Webhook events for new conversations, messages, and contact changes; polling for backfills. On Front: Application webhooks and rule-triggered webhooks, with the events endpoint available for polling. Each detected change propagates to the other side in milliseconds, with field-level conflict resolution and an inspectable event log.
On the Front side: Messages, Comments, Contacts, Accounts, plus custom fields where Front exposes them. On the Drift side: Accounts, Users, Playbooks, Meetings. Stacksync auto-detects both schemas and converts types between the two systems.
Yes. Each object mapping can be bidirectional or restricted to a single direction (both systems accept writes). Read-only mirrors, one-way pushes, and full two-way sync can be mixed in the same integration.
Common patterns for Drift and Front: Where Front handles support or shared inboxes; Where Front supplies contact or company data; Where Front can store CRM context: fields kept current. Tickets and conversations attach to the right contact and account in Drift, so sales sees open issues before the next call.
Drift: REST API. Authentication: OAuth 2.0 via apps registered on the Drift developer platform. Front: REST API (Core API). Authentication: OAuth authorization via the Stacksync UI ("Connections" > "create new connection" > "Front" > "Authorize") — no coding required. Stacksync manages authentication, retries, and rate limits on both sides.
