Threads

Threads are the core of FrontDesk — they represent individual support conversations with your customers. Each thread contains messages and can be organized with status, priority, and assignments.

Creating threads

Threads originate from your support channels integrations. When a user reaches out in a channel you've configured for support, it will automatically be synced to FrontDesk.

Check out the integrations page to see all the channels you can connect to.

Managing threads

Viewing threads

Threads appear in your main inbox view, where you can filter by status, priority, assignee and more.

• Open: New thread awaiting response
• In Progress: Being actively worked on
• Resolved: Issue has been resolved

Priority levels

• No priority: No priority (default)
• Low: Non-urgent requests
• Medium: Standard priority
• High: Important issues requiring attention
• Urgent: Critical issues needing immediate response

Assigning threads

Assign the support agent that will be responsible for the thread.
