Sample applications
Community space
Our Community houses a repository of Connector examples. For example:
Visit our Connectors space and subscribe to our examples forum to see real-world implementations of Connectors in action. We will continue to release more examples in this space.
Sample projects
Front provides the following Connector sample projects which handle more complex use cases:
- Basic application object handler—This sample project demonstrates how you can run a server in Front that verifies incoming requests are coming from Front, and then passes information from an API to the application object in Front.
- No-code application object—This sample project demonstrates setting up an application object in Front that retrieves information from a public API (in this case, Shopify) to power the target URL and the additional information the application object presents to the user. Unlike the Basic application object handler, this example does not require any code. You can use this no-code approach if you don't need to process the requests or API calls, as opposed to the application object handler which allows you to run advanced logic on the data to/from the application object.
- Commenting JIRA issues with conversation links —This example on our community demonstrates how to use the JIRA Pre-Built Connector available on our App Store to send comments to JIRA whenever a JIRA issue gets linked in a Front conversation.
- Creating new API records using Connectors and App Triggers—Learn how to build reliable automations when external API processing exceeds Front's timeout threshold by using Connectors, webhooks, and application triggers to receive data after the fact.
