```

## 📱 WhatsApp Cloud API Setup

### 1. Get Access Token

1. Go to [developers.facebook.com](https://developers.facebook.com)
2. Create/Select your App
3. Add WhatsApp product
4. Go to API Setup → Get a token

## 🔧 Development

### Backend Development

```bash
cd backend

# Install dependencies
pip install -r requirements.txt

# Create .env file
cp .env.example .env

# Run migrations
alembic upgrade head

# Start server
uvicorn app.main:app --reload

# Run tests
pytest
```

### Frontend Development

```bash
cd frontend

# Install dependencies
npm install

# Start dev server
npm run dev

# Build for production
npm run build
```

### Running Workers

The worker processes background jobs (campaign sending). For development:

```bash
# Manual trigger (call this endpoint periodically)
curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/api/workers/tick
```

For production, set up a cron job:

```bash
*/1 * * * * curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/api/workers/tick
```

Or use Celery (advanced):
```bash
# Install celery and redis
pip install celery redis

# Start worker
celery -A app.workers worker --loglevel=info
```

## 📊 Usage Guide

### 1. Import Contacts

**Excel/CSV Import**:
- Prepare file with columns: `phone`, `first_name`, `last_name`, `email`, `opted_in`
- Go to Imports page
- Upload file
- Review summary

**Google Contacts**:
- Click "Connect Google Account"
- Authorize access
- Click "Sync Contacts"

### 2. Create Lists

- Go to Lists page
- Click "Create List"
- Add contacts to list from Contacts page

### 3. Create Templates

- Go to Templates page
- Click "Create Template"
- Use `{{first_name}}`, `{{last_name}}`, etc. for personalization
- For WhatsApp templates: Check "Approved WhatsApp Template" and enter template name from Business Manager

### 4. Create Campaign

- Go to Campaigns page
- Click "Create Campaign"
- Select template and list
- Preview recipients
- Click "Send"

### 5. Monitor Campaign

- Click on campaign name
- See recipient statuses in real-time
- Webhook updates statuses automatically

## 🔒 Compliance Best Practices

### Before Sending
1. ✅ Verify all contacts have opted in OR use approved templates
2. ✅ Check DND list is up to date
3. ✅ Review daily/rate limits
4. ✅ Test with MockProvider first

### Message Guidelines
- Use approved templates for first contact
- Free-form messages only for existing conversations
- Personalize with variables
- Keep messages professional
- Include opt-out instructions

### Data Privacy
- Store only necessary contact info
- Respect DND requests immediately
- Encrypt sensitive data (tokens, etc.)
- Log all activities for audit
- Comply with GDPR/local regulations

## 🧪 Testing

### Unit Tests

```bash
cd backend
pytest tests/
```

### Testing with MockProvider

Set `WHATSAPP_PROVIDER=mock` in `.env`. This simulates sending without external calls.

### Integration Testing

1. Create test contacts with your own phone
2. Mark them as opted-in
3. Create small test campaign
4. Verify messages arrive

## 🚨 Troubleshooting

### "Invalid phone number" errors
- Ensure phones are in E.164 format (+1234567890)
- Check country code is valid
- Use phone normalization in imports

### "Template not found" errors
- Verify template is approved in Business Manager
- Check `provider_template_name` matches exactly
- Wait 24-48h after template submission

### "Rate limit exceeded"
- Check `MAX_MESSAGES_PER_MINUTE` setting
- Review daily limit in `DAILY_LIMIT_PER_CAMPAIGN`
- Stagger campaigns over time

### Webhook not receiving updates
- Verify callback URL is publicly accessible (use ngrok for local testing)
- Check verify token matches
- Review webhook logs in Meta Developer Portal

## 📈 Production Deployment

### Recommended Stack
- **Backend**: Deploy on Railway, Render, or AWS ECS
- **Frontend**: Vercel, Netlify, or Cloudflare Pages
- **Database**: Managed PostgreSQL (AWS RDS, Render, etc.)
- **Workers**: Background tasks on same platform or Celery with Redis
- **Domain**: Custom domain with SSL

### Security Checklist
- [ ] Change all default passwords
- [ ] Use strong JWT_SECRET (32+ chars)
- [ ] Enable HTTPS only
- [ ] Set proper CORS origins
- [ ] Rotate access tokens regularly
- [ ] Monitor rate limits
- [ ] Set up error tracking (Sentry)
- [ ] Enable database backups
- [ ] Review logs regularly

### Scaling Considerations
- Use connection pooling for database
- Add Redis for caching and Celery
- Horizontal scaling for API servers
- CDN for frontend assets
- Monitor provider rate limits
- Consider multiple WhatsApp numbers for higher volume
