Ask and troubleshoot

Hi, ManyChat has changed so much since I last used it, but I want to know if I need my own OpenAI API key if I use the ManyChat AI upgrade, and if not, what are the limitations if any? 

I’m using the Last Interaction Whatsapp System field to send it via message to the user: But it is showing the time as if my timezone was UTC+0. It isn’t taking into account my personal timezone at all, which is configured here:  How could I fix this?

Hi,I was trying to integrate Facebook lead forms with ManyChat to send automated WhatsApp messages. The module Create subscriber is running successfully but the problem is that the subscriber ID on the Send a Flow module shows empty.  Can anyone help me to fix this issue? Thanks,Sajith

Hi Everyone, I’ve some automations in my Social Media to deliver content when people comment to my posts or stories. But I wanted to start collect peoples contact to a Google Sheet and added a step for that. What I’ve noticed is that after running some of my automations a lot of time, my Google Sheet has only 1 contact and only the first and last name.The data I’m collecting:Frist Name Last Name Email PhoneHas anyone faced a similar issue? I was expecting that every time some triggered the automation, it would add the new user’s details to the automation.This is the example of an automation:I’ve put the Action on the beginning. Is it in the right place?Many thanks

Sou novo aqui, tenho dois usuários cadastrados, o meu e de outro atendente. Queria saber se tem jeito de configurar de uma forma que o cliente saiba qual o nome do atendente está conversando com ele no whatsapp. Exemplo: “Atendente Leandro disse:” ou “Conversa transferida para o atendente Junior”

Hi ​@rodrigo_silvano - I am finding that people are not clicking on the “Get Started” button and I don’t want to add another button to create the tagging so that I can create the delay and follow-up. Is there any other way around that?

not sending from automation. How do I fix?  

Hello, i am trying to set up a auto-dm reply once someone comments on a post and it sends different DMs based on whether someone comments 🥵 or 🥶 but it’s not feasible on the quick automation. I have to setup a new sequence but i can’t find the way to set up conditions, need help!

I'm currently using WhatsApp automation and relying on the "last interaction" timestamp to trigger reminder messages. However, I've noticed inconsistent behavior with this parameter — sometimes it successfully triggers the reminder, and other times it doesn't, even when the conditions seem to be met.I'm looking for a more reliable method to trigger reminder messages to customers on WhatsApp, based on the time since their last interaction/message.Specifically, I want to: Detect if a customer hasn't responded within a specific time window (e.g., 12 or 23 hours). Automatically send a friendly follow-up/reminder message if no response was received. Ensure it works consistently, regardless of whether the customer's last message was text, media, or quick reply. Is there a best practice or alternative approach to reliably track last user activity in WhatsApp and trigger reminders accordingly (e.g., via session events, message logs, or contact activity flags)?

How can I change the assigned agent and the agent who receives notifications across different automations at once, instead of going manually into each automation and changing it? In our team, we have a different agent in charge of monitoring WhatsApp messages each day, and I currently have to update all the automations manually. Is there a way to change it for all automations at once?

What's the easiest way to automatically send a Whatapp template from a Albato lead to ManyChat?

hi When a brand‑new WhatsApp contact triggers our automation by sending a massage throught a url , the system sends the intended first message and immediately follows it with an unsolicited message that contains only the character “0”. This extra “0” is not configured anywhere in our flow and does not appear for contacts who have already chatted with us before.

I have this automation set up from a while ago. Keyword is fine, didn’t change it. Refreshed permissions. All of a sudden prospects have not been getting this. how can I fix this?As you can see it’s a simple flow https://www.instagram.com/p/DLuX_V3g1JQ/?igsh=MXQyMnF0enZyOWg0eQ==

¡Hola a todos! Soy nueva en Manychat y ayer lance una automatización, desde la computadora aparece el botón “empezar” pero si intentó escribir desde mi teléfono, no aparece la opción. ¿Alguien sabe por qué o si tengo que moverle algo a manychat para que aparezca en dispositivos moviles?

Aquí tienes una redacción concisa y clara para la comunidad de ManyChat en inglés:Hello ManyChat Community,I'm experiencing an issue where my automations are not triggering on one of my ManyChat Instagram profiles, despite having already updated the Instagram permissions.Has anyone encountered this problem or found a solution? Also, could someone kindly guide me on how to effectively contact ManyChat's technical support team? I'm having trouble locating a direct contact option.Any help would be greatly appreciated!Thank you in advance,

I have two separate PRO accounts on Manychat. One account is working fine, but the other is not registering any of the comment to DM automations-- whether they’re my older ones that use to work or new automations I’ve just created.I’ve refreshed my account connection and received confirmation from Manychat that it has been connected properly, but the automations still don’t work. It’s unfortunate because I use this for business and I’m receiving hundreds of comments, but none of them are receiving the link. The contact list is still under the 2,000 mark too. Can anyone help me?? Thank you!
