             Destination Cloud API / Webhook Endpoint

1. Cross-Channel Customer Identity Resolution

The same customer may message via WhatsApp and Instagram. The extension resolves cross-channel identity using phone numbers (from WhatsApp) and email addresses (from email) as common identifiers — linking messages from the same customer across different channels into a unified conversation thread showing the complete communication history.

2. WhatsApp Business Cloud API Webhook Integration

WhatsApp messages arrive via Meta's Cloud API webhooks. The extension establishes a webhook receiver (via a lightweight server-side proxy or ngrok tunnel) and forwards incoming messages to the extension in real time. Outbound messages are sent via the Cloud API's messages endpoint — enabling full read/write WhatsApp messaging from within the browser.

3. GPT-4o Contextual Response Generation

For incoming customer messages, GPT-4o receives the full conversation history + the business's product catalog and FAQ database (stored in extension settings) to generate contextually appropriate suggested replies. Agents can send suggestions as-is, edit before sending, or ignore and type their own response.

4. Cross-Platform Schema Normalization & Error Logging

Data formats vary widely between external platforms. The engine maps diverse schema variations into standardized strongly-typed data contracts, validating field formats before dispatch and streaming diagnostic event logs for rapid issue resolution.
