Split Inboxes – keep actions separate between inboxes
New
We just launched an in-app setting that lets you keep actions in an inbox separate from other inboxes.
This means you can have separate copies of a conversation in each team inbox to allow different teams with different processes to archive, comment, assign, and more in their own inbox without affecting other teams' copies. Phew!
The same feature can be used to help you manage threading and maintain stricter privacy.
Small tweaks to the conversation merge banner 🛠
Improvement
We've stopped displaying the blue conversation merge banner in a couple of cases:
- When there's a duplicate conversation in a private inbox and a team inbox, we won't show the banner if you don't have the team inbox pinned to your P1 workspace.
- When there's a duplicate conversation in two team inboxes, one or both of which is split, we won't show the banner.
This should help reduce confusion and clutter in your workspace 😎
Rule position is now preserved when searching in the rule list 3️⃣6️⃣2️⃣
Improvement
When you search in the rule list, the rule # displayed used to be the position in the filtered list based on your search. We now display the rule position in the full list so you can better navigate your rule list and understand each rule should should trigger.
Rename conversations to keep work efficient and organized 💥
New

Answer from chat or SMS when moving a conversation across Front Teams 💬
New
When moving a conversation from one Front Team to another Team, you can now answer the conversation from the receiving Team, even if the channel used is chat, SMS, or another. This means you can use whatever channel you prefer to reply to conversations from other teams.
