Developer Tips & Best Practices:

Status vs. Presence: This endpoint sets the connection status ("Online" or "Offline"). It does not set the "About" text (formerly known as status text); for that, use the /profile/status endpoint.

** Privacy Settings:** Even if you set the presence to "offline", your "Last Seen" timestamp may still be updated depending on your WhatsApp privacy settings.

Automation: Useful for customer support bots to appear "Online" during business hours and "Offline" when the bot is inactive.
