 > **Note**: All webhook-based channels (LINE, WeCom, etc.) are served on a single shared Gateway HTTP server (`gateway.host`:`gateway.port`, default `127.0.0.1:18790`). There are no per-channel ports to configure. Note: Feishu uses WebSocket/SDK mode and does not use the shared HTTP webhook server.
