## Description
When working with webhooks, it's easy to lose track of which URL is
which. Adding a `name` (optional) column to the webhook model is a
straight-forward solution to make it significantly easier to identify
webhooks.
## Type of change
- [x] New feature (non-breaking change which adds functionality)
## How Has This Been Tested?
Model and controller specs, and also running in production over several
months without any issues.

## Description
The Articles API was ignoring the `status` parameter when creating new
articles. All articles were forced to be drafts due to a hardcoded
`@article.draft!` call in the controller, even when users explicitly
sent `status: 1` (published) in their API request.
This PR removes the hardcoded draft enforcement and allows the status
parameter to be respected while maintaining backward compatibility.
Fixes#12063
## Type of change
- [x] Bug fix (non-breaking change which fixes an issue)
## How Has This Been Tested?
**Before:**
- API POST with `status: 1` → Created as draft (ignored parameter)
- API POST without status → Created as draft
**After:**
- API POST with `status: 1` → Created as published ✅
- API POST without status → Created as draft (backward compatible) ✅
- UI creates articles → Still creates as draft (UI doesn't send status)
✅
**Tests run:**
```bash
bundle exec rspec spec/controllers/api/v1/accounts/articles_controller_spec.rb
# 17 examples, 0 failures
```
Updated tests:
1. Changed 2 existing tests that were verifying the broken behavior
(expecting draft when published was sent)
2. Added new test to verify articles default to draft when status is not
provided
3. All existing tests pass, confirming backward compatibility

Fixes
https://linear.app/chatwoot/issue/CW-5692/whatsapp-es-numbers-stuck-in-pending-due-to-premature-registration
### Problem
Multiple customers reported that their WhatsApp numbers remain stuck in
**Pending** in WhatsApp Manager even after successful onboarding.
- Our system triggers a **registration call**
(`/<PHONE_NUMBER_ID>/register`) as soon as the number is OTP verified.
- In many cases, Meta hasn’t finished **display name
review/provisioning**, so the call fails with:
```
code: 100, error_subcode: 2388001
error_user_title: "Cannot Create Certificate"
error_user_msg: "Your display name could not be processed. Please edit
your display name and try again."
```
- This leaves the number stuck in Pending, no messaging can start until
we manually retry registration.
- Some customers have reported being stuck in this state for **7+
days**.
### Root cause
- We only check `code_verification_status = VERIFIED` before attempting
registration.
- We **don’t wait** for display name provisioning (`name_status` /
`platform_type`) to be complete.
- As a result, registration fails prematurely and the number never
transitions out of Pending.
### Solution
#### 1. Health Status Monitoring
- Build a backend service to fetch **real-time health data** from Graph
API:
- `code_verification_status`
- `name_status` / `display_name_status`
- `platform_type`
- `throughput.level`
- `messaging_limit_tier`
- `quality_rating`
- Expose health data via API
(`/api/v1/accounts/:account_id/inboxes/:id/health`).
- Display this in the UI as an **Account Health tab** with clear badges
and direct links to WhatsApp Manager.
#### 2. Smarter Registration Logic
- Update `WebhookSetupService` to include a **dual-condition check**:
- Register if:
1. Phone is **not verified**, OR
2. Phone is **verified but provisioning incomplete** (`platform_type =
NOT_APPLICABLE`, `throughput.level = NOT_APPLICABLE`).
- Skip registration if number is already provisioned.
- Retry registration automatically when stuck.
- Provide a UI banner with complete registration button so customers can
retry without manual support.

We recently introduced the WhatsApp Embedded Signup flow in Chatwoot to
simplify onboarding. However, we discovered two important limitations:
Some customers’ numbers are already linked to an Embedded Signup, which
blocks re-use. Tech providers cannot onboard their own numbers via
Embedded Signup.
As a result, we need to support both Manual and Embedded Signup flows to
cover all scenarios.
### Problem
- Current UI only offers the Embedded Signup option.
- Customers who need to reuse existing numbers (already connected to
WABA) or tech providers testing their own numbers get stuck.
- Manual flow exists but is no longer exposed in the UX
**Current Embedded Signup screen**

/>
### Solution
- Design a dual-path UX in the Create WhatsApp Inbox step that:
- Offers Embedded Signup (default/recommended) for new numbers and
businesses.
- Offers Manual Setup for advanced users, existing linked numbers, and
tech providers.

2. List policies: GET /api/v1/accounts/{id}/assignment_policies
3. Assign policy to inbox: POST
/api/v1/accounts/{id}/assignment_policies/{id}/inboxes

## What we have changed:
We have added support for WhatsApp campaigns as requested in the
discussion.
Ref: https://github.com/orgs/chatwoot/discussions/8465
**Note:** This implementation doesn't exactly match the maintainer's
specification and variable support is missing. This is an initial
implementation that provides the core WhatsApp campaign functionality.
### Changes included:
**Backend:**
- Added `template_params` column to campaigns table (migration + schema)
- Created `Whatsapp::OneoffCampaignService` for WhatsApp campaign
execution
- Updated campaign model to support WhatsApp inbox types
- Added template_params support to campaign controller and API
**Frontend:**
- Added WhatsApp campaign page, dialog, and form components
- Updated campaign store to filter WhatsApp campaigns separately
- Added WhatsApp-specific routes and empty state
- Updated i18n translations for WhatsApp campaigns
- Modified sidebar to include WhatsApp campaigns navigation
This provides a foundation for WhatsApp campaigns that can be extended
with variable support and other enhancements in future iterations.

## Description
This PR introduces WhatsApp Embedded Signup functionality, enabling
users to connect their WhatsApp Business accounts through Meta's
streamlined OAuth flow without manual webhook configuration. This
significantly improves the user experience by automating the entire
setup process.
**Key Features:**
- Embedded signup flow using Facebook SDK and Meta's OAuth 2.0
- Automatic webhook registration and phone number configuration
- Enhanced provider selection UI with card-based design
- Real-time progress tracking during signup process
- Comprehensive error handling and user feedback
## Required Configuration
The following environment variables must be configured by administrators
before this feature can be used:
Super Admin Configuration (via
super_admin/app_config?config=whatsapp_embedded)
- `WHATSAPP_APP_ID`: The Facebook App ID for WhatsApp Business API
integration
- `WHATSAPP_CONFIGURATION_ID`: The Configuration ID for WhatsApp
Embedded Signup flow (obtained from Meta Developer Portal)
- `WHATSAPP_APP_SECRET`: The App Secret for WhatsApp Embedded Signup
flow (required for token exchange)

## How Has This Been Tested?
#### Backend Tests (RSpec):
- Authentication validation for embedded signup endpoints
- Authorization code validation and error handling
- Missing business parameter validation
- Proper response format for configuration endpoint
- Unauthorized access prevention
#### Manual Test Cases:
- Complete embedded signup flow (happy path)
- Provider selection UI navigation
- Facebook authentication popup handling
- Error scenarios (cancelled auth, invalid business data, API failures)
- Configuration presence/absence behavior

- Add `actor=app` parameter to Linear OAuth authorization URL for
consistent app-level authorization
https://linear.app/developers/oauth-actor-authorization
- Implement user attribution for Linear issue creation and linking using
`createAsUser` and `displayIconUrl` parameters
- Enhance Linear integration to properly attribute actions to specific
Chatwoot agents
**Note**
- The displayIconUrl parameter is being sent correctly to Linear's
GraphQL API (verified through testing), but there is an issues with icon
is not attaching properly.
- We might need to disconnect the integration connect again.
When users delete the Linear integration from their Chatwoot dashboard,
the access token remains valid in Linear's system. This causes the
integration to still appear as connected in Linear's UI, even though
it's been removed from Chatwoot. Users need to manually disconnect from
Linear's side to fully remove the integration.
