The default behavior for
status
is a footgun for users. Prefer the more forgivinginitial_status
instead. When combined withstatus_updated_at
this will updated a person's status as if the change happened at that timestamp. Whenstatus_updated_at
is missing, any existing status will take priority.Previously, we assumed that the user would always want to update the status when identifying a person. We defaulted to unsubscribing, and at the current timestamp. This has proven to be a poor assumption in practice. With this new behavior, if the
status_updated_at
was intended to be passed but missing, we won't modify the person's status in drip.Testing
