Done a few testing on this PR.
Replicate test using actual FB Ads CTWA

Sending using @lid from Baileys to user - PASS
No more waiting for the message problem

RequestPhoneNumber - PASS
SharePhoneNumber - PASS

Receiving not appear in upsert event if user message - FAILED
Receiving not appear in upsert event after share number - FAILED

Test device -
WA Business 2.23.19.84

User 1: WA 2.23.20.74
User 2: WA Beta 2.23.21.7

Masked number only appear as privacy token

[PurpShell]

The masked number is from FB Ad Messages to WA Business. If you are using regular WhatsApp, this error is not related to this issue

in the future, we found traces that all businesses will talk to normal numbers through the LID. As a matter of fact, get a normal whatsapp lid right now, send a message to it through baileys in this PR through any business number. And you will not get their number, it'll be the same as the fb ads ctwa.

Also, I had no issues over dozens of numbers receiving and sending events and messages, check if anything is wrong with your configuration.

Can we add lidJid as well in contacts.upsert here

            ev.emit('contacts.upsert', [{ id, name: action.contactAction!.fullName!, lidJid: action.contactAction!.lidJid! }])

[PurpShell]

no need, official whatsapp web launches a new conversation. it is up to you to change contact info or replace the chat id in your database.

Any news on this? Can an Admin review this PR, we actually need one more review for this to be approved.

[azudindaem]

@Auties00 we can approve this first then can be fixed later for user still not be able to detect conversion from lid
