Is this app compatible with Odoo Enterprise?

Yes. This module works with Odoo 18 Community, Enterprise, and Odoo.sh. No additional configuration is needed for any edition.

Do I need a Meta Business Account to use this module?

Yes. You need a Meta Developer account with a WhatsApp Business App. You will need your App ID, WABA ID, Phone Number ID, App Secret, and a permanent System User access token (the temporary token from API Setup expires in 24 hours). Detailed setup steps are provided in the module documentation.

Can I connect multiple WhatsApp numbers?

Absolutely. The module supports multi-account configuration. Each WhatsApp Business number gets its own credentials, webhook URL, verify token, and bot user. All accounts work independently with full data isolation.

What happens when the 24-hour messaging window expires?

WhatsApp enforces a 24-hour window from the customer's last message. The module tracks this in real time and shows a countdown in the Discuss UI. When the window expires, the composer automatically switches to template mode so you can send an approved template to re-engage the customer.

What template types are supported?

All four Meta template types: Standard (text, media, buttons), Carousel (swipeable multi-card), Limited Time Offer (with expiration countdown), and Authentication (OTP/copy-code). Each supports headers (Text, Image, Video, Document, Location) and buttons (Quick Reply, URL, Phone, Copy Code, Flow).

How does the campaign audience system work?

You have four audience sources: select Odoo partners directly or via domain filter, choose marketing contact groups, upload a CSV/Excel file, or combine all three. The Prepare Audience action deduplicates phone numbers and resolves template variables before sending. Each recipient is tracked individually with status, timestamps, and error details.

Is it secure? How are webhooks verified?

Yes. Every incoming webhook is verified using HMAC-SHA256 signature with your App Secret. Messages are deduplicated by WhatsApp ID to prevent replay attacks. The module uses three-tier security groups (User, Manager, Administrator), multi-company record rules, and token-based secure media serving with SHA-256 hash validation.

Does this work with multi-company setups?

Yes. All WhatsApp models (accounts, templates, campaigns, messages, contacts, etc.) have multi-company record rules. Users only see records belonging to their allowed companies. Each company can have its own WhatsApp accounts and configurations.

Are there any Python dependencies?

Yes, two: phonenumbers (for phone parsing, country detection, and E.164 formatting) and openpyxl (for Excel file import). Install them with pip install phonenumbers openpyxl.
