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.

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.

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`

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)

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
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
#### Checklist
- [x] Bandwidth SMS
- [x] Whatsapp Cloud + 360 Dialog
- [x] Twilio SMS
- [x] Line
- [x] Telegram
- [x] Instagram

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.
This PR has the following changes
- Add `LINEAR_CLIENT_ID` and `LINEAR_CLIENT_SECRET` to installation
config
- Add Linear config to super_admin/features.yml
- Replace usage of ENV.fetch with GlobalConfigService.load for fetch
Client Id and Secret.
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

This PR imports all the work related to Captain into the EE codebase. Captain represents the AI-based features in Chatwoot and includes the following key components:
- Assistant: An assistant has a persona, the product it would be trained on. At the moment, the data at which it is trained is from websites. Future integrations on Notion documents, PDF etc. This PR enables connecting an assistant to an inbox. The assistant would run the conversation every time before transferring it to an agent.
- Copilot for Agents: When an agent is supporting a customer, we will be able to offer additional help to lookup some data or fetch information from integrations etc via copilot.
- Conversation FAQ generator: When a conversation is resolved, the Captain integration would identify questions which were not in the knowledge base.
- CRM memory: Learns from the conversations and identifies important information about the contact.

Skip calling the Slack file upload API for message types such as
fallback (e.g., Facebook and location messages) that lack actual file
data in attachments. This prevents unnecessary API calls and resolves a
Sentry error currently occurring in production.

Fixes https://github.com/chatwoot/chatwoot/issues/8213
The articles were grouped by category, with locale being a derived
attribute from the category. If a category was deleted, the article
wouldn't appear on the dashboard. However, due to a bug, it would show
up in the uncategorized section on the public portal, leaving agents
unable to edit or update the article.
To address this issue, I've added a locale attribute directly to the
article. This attribute is automatically set from the category or the
portal's default locale if not supplied. The API parameters now use this
attribute to filter articles. As a result, the dashboard will display
articles even if they're not associated with a category, improving the
overall workflow.
**Main updates:**
- Add locale attribute to the Article model. Add db migration to back
fill the data based on the above logic.
- Add a new scope search_by_locale and use it instead of
search_by_category_locale.
- Update the ERB template to include the locale filter.
- Move from `joins` to `left_outer_joins` to include the articles with
no categories.

The `before_type_cast` method sometimes returns a string for
`message_type`, creating inconsistencies in different payloads. This
pull request will remove all `before_type_cast` usage and replace it
with `to_i` methods.
The payload does not include last_activity_at when the conversation is created. Because of this the frontend is not able to sort the conversations when appending this. Another problem is that the last_activity_at is not always present, it is added only when a message is created, and it updates it. So this can be nil when the conversation is created, so we fallback to created_at only at the presentation layer

https://linear.app/chatwoot/issue/CW-3497/instagram-outgoing-attachments-are-not-rendering
It seems like Instagram outgoing attachment rendering has been broken
for a long time. We couldn't identify the issue because the check below
only inspects Instagram mentions.
```
metadata[:data_url] = metadata[:thumb_url] = external_url if message.instagram_story_mention?
```
We recently worked on adding the [Instagram CDN URL for
attachments.](https://github.com/chatwoot/chatwoot/pull/9287)
After that, it started using external URLs as attachment data URLs for
both outgoing and incoming attachments. The rendering broken for all the
outgoing attachments since there were no external URLs, making the data
URL empty. Adding an incoming message check will solve the issue.

- Previously we were ignoring the reels shared over Instagram messages.
This PR will render the reels with in Chatwoot.
followup : we need to render reels in a better interface so that it is
clearly denoted to the user that its an Instagram reel
This PR would update the logos for the integrations (also add the dark mode variants to be used in the future) and updates the logic for enabled / active attributes in the apps.
This API change sets the foundation for an upcoming frontend update, transitioning from a role-based model to a permission-based model. This new approach will determine eligibility for various actions and UI elements based on specific permissions rather than roles, enhancing flexibility and security in user access management.
This PR adds the following changes
1. Refactor `microsoft/callbacks_controller` to move common logic to
`oauth_callback_controller`, most of the logic is re-used for Google
2. Add UI components, `googleClient` and I18n entries for Google login
3. Add Google callback and inbox creation
4. Add a `joinUrl` utility along with specs (need to move it to utils)
5. Add `GoogleConcern`, `Google::AuthorizationsController` and
`Google::CallbacksController`
> Note: The UI is hidden for now, so we can merge this without any
hiccups, to enable it just revert the commit `05c18de`

- Adding a new index on (account_id,created_at,message_type) based on
our performance improvement exercise. This index significantly improves
the page load speeds of messaging reports.
Based on our recent performant optimisation exercises, We have identified a better indexing strategy for conversations and contacts. The previous index on last_activity_at for conversations significantly slowed down conversation filters. Similarly, the new index on Contacts will allow the page rendering to improve for accounts with many contacts.
