Feb 1, 2026February 2026 (2026-02) highlights for dimagi/commcare-connect: Delivered a robust end-to-end Chat Widget that renders on pages, with dependency setup and context data plumbing, and implemented a request helper for consistent integration. Expanded test coverage for the chat widget, including configuration validations. Hardened configuration and security by introducing secrets-based settings. Enhanced data traceability with UUIDs in payment-related notifications and serializers. Fixed visibility leaks and widget behavior when credentials are missing with DB-level checks. Improved UI/UX for Opportunities (header/layout, truncation, spacing) and modal forms with HTMX partial reload. Introduced feature flag gating for v2 logic to enable safe rollout, plus endpoint flexibility improvements. Extended serialization and metrics context to include payment_unit_id and metrics data, and completed unit-test improvements across the batch.

Jan 1, 2026January 2026 focused on strengthening data integrity, API reliability, and maintainability for dimagi/commcare-connect. Delivered a major Model Field Refactor that renames fields, removes duplicates, extends the model, supports custom int field names, and caches active status during key flushes, reducing data drift and improving runtime efficiency. Implemented API layer enhancements including a helper to fetch objects by request version, per-user flag fetching, API view updates, and cleanup of incorrect imports, resulting in more precise API behavior and easier versioned data access. Expanded unit test coverage across API/models and standardized test files, boosting regression safety and maintainability. Stabilized migrations and import hygiene by aligning migration dependencies with the main branch and removing direct imports in migrations, reducing migration-related risks. Improved URL/ID consistency and data traceability by consolidating URL handling with slugs, explicitly referencing opp_id, adopting UUIDs for user URLs, adding UUIDs for payment invoices, and enhancing data completeness (location field required) and batch data fetching support. These changes collectively enhance data quality, traceability, performance, and developer productivity, enabling faster feature delivery and safer deployments.
