How to connect Gmail and Front
Create a New Scenario to Connect Gmail and Front
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.
Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a Gmail, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Gmail or Front will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Gmail or Front, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.
Add the Gmail Node
Select the Gmail node from the app selection panel on the right.

Set Up the Gmail and Front Integration
Use various Latenode nodes to transform data and enhance your integration:
- Branching: Create multiple branches within the scenario to handle complex logic.
- Merging: Combine different node branches into one, passing data through it.
- Plug n Play Nodes: Use nodes that don’t require account credentials.
- Ask AI: Use the GPT-powered option to add AI capabilities to any node.
- Wait: Set waiting times, either for intervals or until specific dates.
- Sub-scenarios (Nodules): Create sub-scenarios that are encapsulated in a single node.
- Iteration: Process arrays of data when needed.
- Code: Write custom code or ask our AI assistant to do it for you.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Gmail, Front, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the Gmail and Front integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Gmail and Front (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Gmail and Front
Gmail + Front + Google Sheets: When a new email arrives in Gmail, the details are extracted and a corresponding contact and message are created in Front. A new row is then added to a Google Sheet to log the inquiry for tracking purposes.
Front + Gmail + Slack: When a new event occurs in Front (e.g., a new message), the flow checks for urgent keywords in the email body using Gmail's Find Email action. If the email is deemed urgent, a notification is sent to a designated Slack channel.
