What this guide covers
When a conversation is matched or verified, native records use the available customer/contact relationship where the CRM model supports it. These instructions follow the supplied r20.5 controller, model, view, installer, connector and automation flow.

Code-backed validations and workflow rules
- Only users with Convert access for the selected account can create CRM records.
- Assigned staff choices are limited to users who can view the account.
- The module uses native CRM models and records conversion history linked to the conversation.
- When a conversation is matched or verified, native records use the available customer/contact relationship where the CRM model supports it.
Expected result and verification
- The requested action completes without a permission, validation, connector or native CRM error.
- The selected account or conversation shows the expected state without changing another account’s data.
- Where the action creates evidence, confirm the message, native record, verification event, portal history or audit entry is present.
Security, privacy and troubleshooting checks
- Never expose connector tokens, loopback ports, authentication directories or raw customer verification replies.
- Use the supported Connections, Access Control, Settings and Audit Trail pages rather than editing runtime or database records directly.
- If the expected control is missing, verify both native capability and per-account permission before treating it as an installation fault.
