What Connected apps covers today

Open Settings → Connected apps. The page summarizes WhatsApp Business and Shared email. Each row shows health, last successful activity, installer identity when recorded, and a plain-language data-access description. It links to the channel-specific setup where credentials and tests belong.

Connected apps is an inventory and review surface, not an app marketplace. If the integration you need is not listed, contact WRKZY Support to confirm the supported path. Do not create, copy, or share credentials as a workaround.

Run a quarterly connection review

  1. Confirm the active workspace.
  2. Open Connected apps and refresh Settings health.
  3. For each row, record whether it is Healthy, Needs attention, Critical, Checking, or Unavailable.
  4. Compare Last successful activity with expected channel usage.
  5. Confirm Installed by is a current, accountable teammate.
  6. Read Data accessed and confirm the business purpose still requires it.
  7. Select Test or manage and run the channel-specific diagnostic.
  8. Review dependent team-inbox routes, automations, templates, and campaigns before disconnecting anything.

Data boundaries

WhatsApp may access message content, sender identity, and delivery events. Shared email may access email content, recipients, delivery, and reply metadata. This summary does not reveal provider secrets. Keep access reviews focused on purpose, scope, and operational ownership—not copying tokens into an inventory document.

Review a connection as an operating dependency

  1. 01
    PurposeApproved purpose and owner

    A current teammate is accountable for why the provider connection exists.

  2. 02
    ScopeData scope and dependencies

    Messages, recipients, routes, templates, campaigns, and automations match the approved purpose.

  3. 03
    EvidenceLive health and activity

    Provider diagnostics and recent successful activity prove more than a saved connection row.

  4. 04
    DecideReview decision

    Keep, repair, rotate responsibility, or plan removal based on evidence and customer impact.

  5. 05
    ControlControlled change and verification

    Protect secrets, preserve a fallback route, then verify dependent workflows after any change.

A connection is safe to keep only when its purpose, accountable owner, data scope, live health, dependent workflows, and recovery decision still agree.

Disconnect safely

There is no one-click disconnect on the summary page. Open the corresponding WhatsApp or Shared email page. First identify default sender or mailbox status, inbound routes, open customer work, pending campaigns, automation references, templates, and required evidence retention. Put an alternative route in place, pause dependent sends, then remove the connection from its own settings page.

Recovery

If metadata is partial or stale, select Retry and compare the channel's live diagnostics. A missing installer name does not prove an unauthorized installation; it may mean attribution is unavailable. Escalate with workspace slug, connection type, displayed health, last activity, installer label, test time, and redacted error—never with OAuth tokens, SMTP passwords, webhook secrets, or verification codes.

Connection review complete
  • Every connection has a current business owner
  • Data access still matches purpose
  • Last activity and live diagnostic agree
  • Dependencies mapped before removal
