This PR introduces basic minimum version of **Instagram Business
Login**, making Instagram inbox setup more straightforward by removing
the Facebook Page dependency. This update enhances user experience and
aligns with Meta’s recommended best practices.
Fixes
https://linear.app/chatwoot/issue/CW-3728/instagram-login-how-to-implement-the-changes
## Why Introduce Instagram as a Separate Inbox?
Currently, our Instagram integration requires linking an Instagram
account to a Facebook Page, making setup complex. To simplify this
process, Instagram now offers **Instagram Business Login**, which allows
users to authenticate directly with their Instagram credentials.
The **Instagram API with Instagram Login** enables businesses and
creators to send and receive messages without needing a Facebook Page
connection. While an Instagram Business or Creator account is still
required, this approach provides a more straightforward integration
process.
| **Existing Approach (Facebook Login for Business)** | **New Approach
(Instagram Business Login)** |
| --- | --- |
| Requires linking Instagram to a Facebook Page | No Facebook Page
required |
| Users log in via Facebook credentials | Users log in via Instagram
credentials |
| Configuration is more complex | Simpler setup |
Meta recommends using **Instagram Business Login** as the preferred
authentication method due to its easier configuration and improved
developer experience.
---
## Implementation Plan
The core messaging functionality is already in place, but the transition
to **Instagram Business Login** requires adjustments.
### Changes & Considerations
- **API Adjustments**: The Instagram API uses `graph.instagram`, whereas
Koala (our existing library) interacts with `graph.facebook`. We may
need to modify API calls accordingly.
- **Three Main Modules**:
1. **Instagram Business Login** – Handle authentication flow.
2. **Permissions & Features** – Ensure necessary API scopes are granted.
3. **Webhooks** – Enable real-time message retrieval.

---
## Instagram Login Flow
1. User clicks **"Create Inbox"** for Instagram.
2. App redirects to the [Instagram Authorization
URL](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/instagram-platform/instagram-api-with-instagram-login/business-login#embed-the-business-login-url).
3. After authentication, Instagram returns an authorization code.
5. The app exchanges the code for a **long-lived token** (valid for 60
days).
6. Tokens are refreshed periodically to maintain access.
7. Once completed, the app creates an inbox and redirects to the
Chatwoot dashboard.
---
## How to Test the Instagram Inbox
1. Create a new app on [Meta's Developer
Portal](https://developers.facebook.com/apps/).
2. Select **Business** as the app type and configure it.
3. Add the Instagram product and connect a business account.
4. Copy Instagram app ID and Instagram app secret
5. Add the Instagram app ID and Instagram app secret to your app config
via `{Chatwoot installation
url}/super_admin/app_config?config=instagram`
6. Configure Webhooks:
- Callback URL: `{your_chatwoot_url}/webhooks/instagram`
- Verify Token: `INSTAGRAM_VERIFY_TOKEN`
- Subscribe to `messages`, `messaging_seen`, and `message_reactions`
events.
7. Set up **Instagram Business Login**:
- Redirect URL: `{your_chatwoot_url}/instagram/callback`
8. Test inbox creation via the Chatwoot dashboard.
## Troubleshooting & Common Errors
### Insufficient Developer Role Error
- Ensure the Instagram user is added as a developer:
- **Meta Dashboard → App Roles → Roles → Add People → Enter Instagram
ID**
### API Access Deactivated
- Ensure the **Privacy Policy URL** is valid and correctly set.
### Invalid request: Request parameters are invalid: Invalid
redirect_uri
- Please configure the Frontend URL. The Frontend URL does not match the
authorization URL.

1. Add permission filter service to separate permission filtering logic
from conversation queries
2. Implement hierarchical permissions with cleaner logic:
- conversation_manage gives access to all conversations
- conversation_unassigned_manage gives access to unassigned and user's
conversations
- conversation_participating_manage gives access only to user's
conversations

Optimization #11183 missed a condition where the inbox_id filter is
manually passed. Due to the previous change, the inbox filter was being
discarded for admins, although it continued to work correctly for
agents.
This PR includes a fix for that specific case and adds a spec to
explicitly test it.
This pull request includes significant changes to the filtering logic
for conversations in the frontend, here's a summary of the changes
This includes adding a `matchesFilters` method that evaluates a
conversation against the applied filters. It does so by first evaluating
all the conditions, and later converting the results into a JSONLogic
object that can be evaluated according to Postgres operator precedence
### Alignment Specs
To ensure the frontend and backend implementations always align, we've
added tests on both sides with same cases, for anyone fixing any
regressions found in the frontend implementation, they need to ensure
the existing tests always pass.
Test Case | JavaScript Spec | Ruby Spec | Match?
-- | -- | -- | --
**A AND B OR C** | Present | Present | Yes
Matches when all conditions are true | Present | Present | Yes
Matches when first condition is false but third is true | Present |
Present | Yes
Matches when first and second conditions are false but third is true |
Present | Present | Yes
Does not match when all conditions are false | Present | Present | Yes
**A OR B AND C** | Present | Present | Yes
Matches when first condition is true | Present | Present | Yes
Matches when second and third conditions are true | Present | Present |
Yes
**A AND B OR C AND D** | Present | Present | Yes
Matches when first two conditions are true | Present | Present | Yes
Matches when last two conditions are true | Present | Present | Yes
**Mixed Operators (A AND (B OR C) AND D)** | Present | Present | Yes
Matches when all conditions in the chain are true | Present | Present |
Yes
Does not match when the last condition is false | Present | Present |
Yes

In this PR https://github.com/chatwoot/chatwoot/pull/11139, if there is
an attempt to create a duplication session for the contact in the same
inbox, we will anonymize the old session.
This PR would prevent sending messages to the older sessions. The
support agents will have to create a new conversation to continue
messages with customer.
This PR addresses a race condition in the contact inbox model caused by
duplicate `source_id` values linked to different contacts.
The issue typically occurs when an agent updates a contact’s email or
phone number or when two contacts are merged. In these scenarios, the
`source_id`, which is intended to uniquely identify the contact in a
session, may still be associated with the old contact inbox.
To solve this, we check if there’s already a ContactInbox with the same
source_id but linked to another contact. If we find one, we update that
old record by changing its source_id to a random value. This breaks the
wrong connection and prevents issues, while still keeping the old data
safe.
However, this is only a temporary fix. The main issue is with the way
the contact inbox model is designed. Right now, it’s being used to track
sessions, but that may not be necessary for non-live chat channels. In
the long run, we should consider redesigning this part of the system to
avoid such problems.
This PR implements the following features
- FAQs from conversations will be generated in account language
- Contact notes will be generated in account language
- Copilot chat will respond in user language, unless the agent asks the
question in a different language
## Changes
### Copilot Chat
- Update the prompt to include an instruction for the language, the bot
will reply in asked language, but will default to account language
- Update the `ChatService` class to include pass the language to
`SystemPromptsService`
### FAQ and Contact note generation
- Update contact note generator and conversation generator to include
account locale
- Pass the account locale to `SystemPromptsService`
<details><summary>Screenshots</summary>
#### FAQs being generated in system langauge

#### Copilot responding in system language

This PR adds native integration with Shopify. No more dashboard apps.
The support agents can view the orders, their status and the link to the
order page on the conversation sidebar.
This PR does the following:
- Create an integration with Shopify (a new app is added in the
integrations tab)
- Option to configure it in SuperAdmin
- OAuth endpoint and the callbacks.
- Frontend component to render the orders. (We might need to cache it in
the future)

This PR updates the search implementation to better utilize the GIN
indexes. The option is toggled behind a feature flag for us to test it
internally before making it available publicly
The issue was that when a team change results in an assignee being set
to nil, the system was still trying to create a notification about the
assignment change, but there was no assignee to notify, causing
potential issues in the notification system.
The UI displays only six articles, and this update introduces a per_page
parameter to control the number of articles returned per API call. The
value is capped between 1 and 100, with a default fallback if a lower
number is set.
This change is necessary due to high website traffic, where excessive
payloads are returned without adding value.
**Changes:**
- Add index to status, account_id, portal_id, views.
- Add per_page param in the API.
- Update the code in the frontend to fetch only 6
- Twilio events were being processed synchronously, leading to slow API
responses.
- This change moves Twilio event processing to a background job to
improve performance and align with how other events (e.g., WhatsApp) are
handled.

At 5 PM, when business hours officially end, an automatic out-of-office
message is sent to customers. However, this creates a poor experience if
an agent is actively chatting with the customer. This update ensures
that the out-of-office message is only sent if no agent message has been
sent in the last 5 minutes. If the customer reaches out again after 5
minutes, the out-of-office message will be triggered.
- Add a warning logger for cases where we are getting webhook events for
inactive numbers.
- Add config to discard events for inactive numbers so that the meta
will stop sending events

We allow users to select locale variants when creating the help center
(e.g., pt_BR or en_UK). However, the selected variant may not always be
available for translation in the app. In such cases, we need to fall
back to either the base language or the default locale.
While this fallback logic was implemented for the portal locale, it was
missing for article locales.
This PR fixes that issue.
This PR adds missing error handlers for the following channels and cases
1. WhatsApp - Generic Handlers for both Cloud and 360Dialog (Deprecated)
2. Instagram - Handler for a case where there is an HTTP error instead
of an `:error` in the 200 response
3. Facebook - Errors from the two sentry issues
([Net::OpenTimeout](https://chatwoot-p3.sentry.io/issues/6164805227) &
[JSON::ParserError](https://chatwoot-p3.sentry.io/issues/5903200786))
4. SMS: Generic handlers for Bandwidth SMS

This PR adds service to automate account abuse detection. Currently
based on the signup name and URL, could potentially add more context
such as usage analysis, message metadata etc.
In Chatwoot, we rely on the Content-ID for inline attachments to replace
the link with the uploaded attachment URL. Our expectation was that only
images would be inline, while other attachments would not. However,
email clients like Apple Mail (sigh) allow users to send inline
attachments that are not images, and these attachments often lack a
Content-ID. This creates significant issues in rendering.
I investigated how other email clients handle this scenario. When
viewing the same email (sent from Apple Mail) in Gmail, only one image
appears—and it’s treated as an attachment, not inline. This happens
because both attachments are the same image, and Apple Mail only sends
one copy. See the screenshot below.
| Apple Mail | Gmail |
| -- | -- |
| <img width="646" alt="Screenshot 2025-02-27 at 8 20 17 PM"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/e0d1cd2d-e47c-4081-a53b-7a67106341b3"
/> | <img width="360" alt="Screenshot 2025-02-27 at 8 20 51 PM"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/b206e56e-8f86-43e9-867b-d895c36aff78"
/> |
A good fix for this would be to check if the Content-ID is missing and
then upload the file as a regular attachment. However, the Mail gem (for
some reason) automatically adds a default Content-ID to inline parts. I
need to dig into the source code to understand why this happens.
For now, I’ve implemented a check to treat non-image attachments as
regular attachments. Inline image attachments are already handled by
appending an image tag at the end if the content-id is not found in the
body. A sample conversation to test this behavior is
[here](https://app.chatwoot.com/app/accounts/1/conversations/46732).
This PR is part of the larger #10849 implementation and introduces a new
Live Reports API to provide real-time conversation metrics.
The /live_reports/conversation_metrics endpoint returns account-level or
team-level conversation statistics, including open, pending, unattended,
and unassigned conversation counts.
The /live_reports/grouped_conversation_metrics endpoint accepts a group
parameter, either team_id or assignee_id, and returns open and
unattended conversation counts based on the specified grouping.
At the moment, when updating the inbox members, or team members the
account cache used for IndexedDB is not invalidated. This can cause
inconsistencies in the UI. This PR fixes this by adding explicit
invalidation after performing the member changes
### Summary of changes
1. Added a new method `add_members` and `remove_members` to both `team`
and `inbox` models. The change was necessary for two reasons
- Since the individual `add_member` and `remove_member` is called in a
loop, it's wasteful to run the cache invalidation in the method.
- Moving the account cache invalidation call in the controller pollutes
the controller business logic
2. Updated tests across the board
### More improvements
We can make a concern called `Memberable` with usage like
`memberable_with :inbox_members`, that can encapsulate the functionality
