Problem
Automated greeting messages sent by Chatwoot (via "template" message type) were not being linked to their Chatwoot Message ID in the Evolution API database. When WhatsApp echoed the sent message back via webhook, Evolution API treated it as a new incoming message because it couldn't find the original ID, resulting in duplicate messages in the Chatwoot conversation.
Solution
Updated the
receiveWebhookhandler fortemplatemessages to callupdateChatwootMessageIdafter sending the message. This ensures the message is stored in the database, allowing the deduplication logic to correctly identify the echo.Type of Change
