What this guide covers

A lightweight browser-store check recovers a recent message missed by the native event hook and deduplicates it. These instructions follow the supplied r20.5 controller, model, view, installer, connector and automation flow.

Exact step-by-step process

  1. Open Admin Area → WhatsApp → Inbox.
  2. Locate the account, conversation, setting, session or evidence relevant to “Understand missed-message reconciliation”.
  3. Review the displayed value or behaviour against this guide’s code-backed rules.
  4. Do not change unrelated account, CRM or connector settings while verifying the result.
  5. Confirm the expected state in the related Inbox, Connections, customer history, native CRM record or Audit Trail.

Code-backed validations and workflow rules

  • One permission-scoped live request covers every accessible active account.
  • Event-stream identity detects connector event-store recreation and allows a safe cursor reset.
  • WhatsApp message IDs deduplicate live, history and reconciliation paths.
  • A lightweight browser-store check recovers a recent message missed by the native event hook and deduplicates 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.
