- Add linkPreview extraction from webhook/n8n response
- Implement linkPreview parameter in textMessage calls
- Add debug logging for linkPreview functionality
- Support for disabling link previews when linkPreview: false
- Add comprehensive documentation for linkPreview feature
Usage:
- Return { "message": "text", "linkPreview": false } from webhook to disable preview
- Return { "message": "text", "linkPreview": true } from webhook to enable preview
- Omit linkPreview for default WhatsApp behavior
- Remove evolution-bot-documentation.md - Remove evolution-bot-linkpreview-example.md - Remove send-text-api-documentation.md - Keep only the core linkPreview implementation

Hey there - I've reviewed your changes - here's some feedback:
- Consider defaulting linkPreview to true when the webhook doesn’t specify it so you don’t pass undefined to textMessage and preserve backward compatibility.
- The large number of debug logs can clutter output and may expose sensitive data—consider consolidating related logs into structured entries and sanitizing payloads before logging.
- Validate that linkPreview is actually a boolean before passing it to textMessage, and fall back to a safe default if it isn’t.

The property assignment uses redundant syntax. Use shorthand property notation: linkPreview, instead of linkPreview: linkPreview,
Suggested change
| linkPreview: linkPreview, // Use linkPreview from n8n response | |
| linkPreview, // Use linkPreview from n8n response |

The comment incorrectly refers to 'n8n response' but this is a generic webhook response that could come from any webhook endpoint, not specifically n8n. Update the comment to be more generic: // Extract linkPreview from webhook response
Suggested change
- Default linkPreview to true when not specified for backward compatibility - Validate linkPreview is boolean before passing to textMessage - Consolidate debug logs and remove sensitive data from logging - Sanitize API keys in debug output ([REDACTED]) - Reduce log verbosity while maintaining debugging capability - Ensure robust fallback behavior for malformed responses Addresses PR feedback regarding: - Backward compatibility preservation - Security considerations in logging - Input validation and error handling
- Remove unnecessary trailing whitespace - Use shorthand property syntax for linkPreview parameter - Apply ESLint formatting standards - Maintain code consistency and readability
