sendbird: audit vs current vendor docs (2026-04-16) — vendor discontinued #91

Description

@productdevbook

Summary

The underlying "Sendbird AI Chatbot Widget" product our wrapper targets has been discontinued by Sendbird (GitHub repo sendbird/chat-ai-widget archived 2025-07-09, last version 1.9.7; AI Chatbot docs removed from sendbird.com with the notice "The AI chatbot product has been discontinued and is no longer supported") — we should (a) mark ahize/sendbird as legacy/EOL, (b) backfill the richer prop surface that did ship in 1.9.7, and (c) add a sibling ahize/sendbird-desk provider for actual support semantics.

Gaps found

Missing API surface

Config options not exposed

Auth modes

  • configureSession (SessionHandler factory) is the Sendbird-recommended mechanism for rotating/refreshing tokens; our current wrapper only accepts a static sessionToken and triggers a full destroy+load on every identity change, which breaks token refresh semantics — https://github.com/sendbird/chat-ai-widget/blob/develop/README.md

Deprecations in our current code

  • The entire underlying product (@sendbird/chat-ai-widget, loaded from https://aichatbot.sendbird.com/index.js) is EOL. GitHub repo archived 2025-07-09 at v1.9.7 (2025-02-11); Sendbird's public docs state "The AI chatbot product has been discontinued and is no longer supported." Recommend: mark ahize/sendbird as @deprecated in JSDoc, add a runtime console.warn on load(), freeze on 1.9.7, and document "AI Agent" (private beta, gated docs) as the non-drop-in successor — https://github.com/sendbird/chat-ai-widget

Sibling product

  • Yes — build ahize/sendbird-desk as a separate provider. Sendbird Desk (npm install sendbird-desk, requires Chat SDK 4.9.x+) is the actual "customer support widget" product: ticket-per-conversation, agent inbox via Sendbird Dashboard, Ticket.create(), SendBirdDesk.authenticate(USER_ID, ACCESS_TOKEN) dual-auth paired with sb.connect(). It maps cleanly to our unified surface (track() can map to ticket events, identify() to authenticate(), agent messages are first-class) in a way the chat-widget product never did — https://sendbird.com/docs/desk/sdk/v1/javascript/quickstart/create-first-ticket

Intentionally out of scope

  • Low-level Sendbird Chat SDK (@sendbird/chat).
  • @sendbird/uikit-react (generic chat UI components, not a support widget).
  • Sendbird Calls / Sendbird Live SDKs.
  • AI Agent runtime/event API — Sendbird's AI Agent docs are behind a private/gated portal; we cannot audit without vendor access. File a separate issue once access is obtained.
  • Runtime imperative methods (open/close/toggle/sendMessage/setUserName/setUserProfileUrl) and lifecycle events (onMessageReceived/onChannelChanged/onUserConnected/onUserDisconnected) — not documented in the archived v1.9.7 README; our existing CSS-level show()/hide() remains the only public escape hatch.
  • theme, language, hideLauncher, customLauncherSelector, channelUrl, position — listed as candidates in the audit brief but are NOT present in the v1.9.7 README prop table.

                      sendbird: audit vs current vendor docs (2026-04-16) — vendor discontinued #91

                      Description

                      Summary

                      The underlying "Sendbird AI Chatbot Widget" product our wrapper targets has been discontinued by Sendbird (GitHub repo sendbird/chat-ai-widget archived 2025-07-09, last version 1.9.7; AI Chatbot docs removed from sendbird.com with the notice "The AI chatbot product has been discontinued and is no longer supported") — we should (a) mark ahize/sendbird as legacy/EOL, (b) backfill the richer prop surface that did ship in 1.9.7, and (c) add a sibling ahize/sendbird-desk provider for actual support semantics.

                      Missing API surface

                      • configureSession (SessionHandler factory) is the Sendbird-recommended mechanism for rotating/refreshing tokens; our current wrapper only accepts a static sessionToken and triggers a full destroy+load on every identity change, which breaks token refresh semantics — https://github.com/sendbird/chat-ai-widget/blob/develop/README.md

                      Deprecations in our current code

                      • The entire underlying product (@sendbird/chat-ai-widget, loaded from https://aichatbot.sendbird.com/index.js) is EOL. GitHub repo archived 2025-07-09 at v1.9.7 (2025-02-11); Sendbird's public docs state "The AI chatbot product has been discontinued and is no longer supported." Recommend: mark ahize/sendbird as @deprecated in JSDoc, add a runtime console.warn on load(), freeze on 1.9.7, and document "AI Agent" (private beta, gated docs) as the non-drop-in successor — https://github.com/sendbird/chat-ai-widget

                      Sibling product

                      • Yes — build ahize/sendbird-desk as a separate provider. Sendbird Desk (npm install sendbird-desk, requires Chat SDK 4.9.x+) is the actual "customer support widget" product: ticket-per-conversation, agent inbox via Sendbird Dashboard, Ticket.create(), SendBirdDesk.authenticate(USER_ID, ACCESS_TOKEN) dual-auth paired with sb.connect(). It maps cleanly to our unified surface (track() can map to ticket events, identify() to authenticate(), agent messages are first-class) in a way the chat-widget product never did — https://sendbird.com/docs/desk/sdk/v1/javascript/quickstart/create-first-ticket

                      • Runtime imperative methods (open/close/toggle/sendMessage/setUserName/setUserProfileUrl) and lifecycle events (onMessageReceived/onChannelChanged/onUserConnected/onUserDisconnected) — not documented in the archived v1.9.7 README; our existing CSS-level show()/hide() remains the only public escape hatch.
