Ask and troubleshoot

I run an agency with more than four clients and am interested in using ManyChat for all of them. Ideally, I would like to manage their social media through my ManyChat account without asking for payment from them, essentially offering this service as a "gift." Is it possible to add all their Instagram and Facebook profiles under my agency's ManyChat account, or do I need to create a separate account for each client and have them pay for it?

Gostaria que me ajudassem a resolver isso..Criei uma automação, inseri os gatilhos está rodando perfeitamente, porém, uma pessoa entrou em contato passou por toda a automação e chegou ao atendimento humano, quando essa pessoa mando alguma das palavras de gatilho novamente alguns minutos depois a automação reinicia. Como faço para a automação rodar somente para novos contato e nao para quem já entrou? Como faço isso?

Issue Summary: I am attempting to set up the Conversions API (CAPI) for my Instagram automation, but the connection is failing despite my automation templates appearing correctly in Meta Ads Manager.The Problem: Manual Setup: Entering the CAPI token manually in ManyChat results in an "Invalid Credentials" error. Meta Events Manager: In the Dataset settings, the option to "Connect Instagram as a Messaging Data Source" is greyed out. Multiple Datasets: I noticed ManyChat has auto-created new datasets (e.g., "Event Data"), which seem to be conflicting with my original dataset. Troubleshooting Done: Confirmed "Full Control" permissions for my profile on all assets. Verified the IG account is a Business profile with "Allow access to messages" enabled. Regenerated tokens and checked for trailing spaces. Identity is confirmed as the ManyChat template shows up in my Engagement ads. Question: How can I resolve the "Invalid" error to link my existing data, and why is the messaging data

Quiero integrar a una aplicacion llamada wishub pero me pide token de autorizacion y contect type

Nesse cliente novo, desde que conectamos (20 de maio) a maioria dos inbox que chegam ou até quem passa pela automação criada aparece como contato desconhecido. Ja atualizei as permissões e ainda não muda, os novos tanto por inbox quanto pelas automações, ainda chegam como contato desconhecido. como corrigir isso?

Hi everyone, Manychat API started throwing 5xx errors suddenly, and there is nothing on the official status page.Does anyone know what it going on?

I have two Instagram DM automations in ManyChat that call an n8n webhook. One account “somehow” worked at first. I cloned the n8n workflow for a second account — it didn’t work. After a lot of trial/error I got the second one to work, but now the first one stopped working. I keep refreshing tokens/URLs and sometimes it magically works… most of the time it doesn’t. I’m not fixing a clear bug; I’m just replacing the same actions and praying. It feels unstable.

I want to set up a simple automation with the trigger being “user comments on Instagram reel or post”. Then, I’d like the response to be 2 gallery cards with buttons underneath. I’ve been working on this for hours and can’t figure out how to get that trigger to work in the Flow Builder where the gallery cards are. I’ve searched and searched for the answer and can’t find it. I’m sure it’s something SO SIMPLE, but I can’t figure it out. Help?

Hello everyone,I'm experiencing an issue with my Instagram comment-to-DM automation. It works correctly for users with public accounts, but it does NOT trigger for users with private accounts.Here's my setup: Trigger: Instagram Post/Reel Comment containing a specific keyword Action: Send a private DM with a message + image Plan: Pro The problem: When a user with a PRIVATE Instagram account comments with the keyword on my post or reel, the automation does not send them a DM. No message is delivered at all - not even to their Message Requests folder.However, when a user with a PUBLIC account comments the same keyword, the automation works perfectly every time.Why I believe this is a bug: I personally have a separate PRIVATE Instagram account. When I comment with keywords on posts of OTHER creators (who also use ManyChat or similar tools), I receive automated DMs immediately - without any issues. This tells me that Instagram's API does support sending automated DMs to private accounts

I’m trying to set up a gallery reply in Instagram for the first time, but it gives me this error - Mark this message as a "Private Reply" if you want to send it as a reply to a post, reel comment, a follow action or share to story reply.It seems I can’t change it to private reply if I’m using cards, and I don’t want to add a message before the gallery. I’ve seen other people do it recently, so there must be a way. What am I missing? 

Hi, my Manychat doesn’t seem to be connecting with my IG account even though it says it’s already connected. Where is this ‘REQUEST SENT’ sent to?   

Hi everyone,  I am hoping someone may be able to help, I have had manychat connected to IG for a log time, randomly it stopped working, I can see in instagram it is listed as an expired app, not active. I have refreshed the permissions, disabled and enabled it and I cannot seem to figure out how to connect it again as an active app. Any thoughts? I have gone through most of the trouble shooting help center instructions

22/5/2026, is manychat server down?  

Preciso criar automações focadas em anúncios de tráfego pago. Como faço isso se pra mim não aparecem os darkposts.

Ran into an issue this afternoon with the Instagram comment-to-DM quick automation. My keyword was a short acronym (ABC, for example’s sake). With the quick automation, I noticed it wasn’t triggering at all. I switched it to a new blank canvas and entered the same keyword, and it works. Just wanted to flag that for the team. 

Hi everyone,Is there any update on the Instagram “Follow to DM / Say Hi to New Followers” bug?We saw the Manychat status page mentioning delays and failures with this automation, apparently related to a Meta-side issue.Our automation is Live/Published, but it still does not trigger consistently when new users follow our Instagram account.We already checked:- Instagram account is connected- Permissions were refreshed- Automation is published- Tests were made with new follower accountsIs anyone still experiencing the same problem?Has Manychat or Meta shared any expected timeline or workaround?Thanks in advance!

Hi! How are you? I'm Malena, I work with doctors, and I'm thinking about offering automation services. The first thing I want to offer is ManyChat. My clients are doctors who work all day and want absolutely nothing to do with technology. This presents two problems. They generally want to pay and have everything done for them. I already had a situation where I ended up using my MetaAds account to run campaigns because the client didn't have time to connect the MetaAds console to me and didn't understand the tutorial either (it's bad practice, I know).The thing is, now I want to start offering automation services.1. I have two options: either I help them configure their ManyChat, or I do it myself from the admin panel, absorbing the costs within the service price.2. I want the FAQ bot; it would be very useful. Do I have to pay for that per client, or do I pay for it once for my account, and if it's from my admin panel, do I pay for it myself? Thank you!

I am managing one company’s accounts and we have many branches and locations. Is it possible to have only one pro account and sub-accounts, since owner is same person. Each sub account has it is own social media accounts and web sites. Or do I have purchase pro accounts to all sub accounts (branches)?

i have a free trial running until March 15 but want some of the pro features and cannot find a way to activate pro right now.  do I have to completely cancel my trial subsription in order to activate pro.If I do have to cancel, will i lose all my automations?

Hola, estoy intentando configurar manychat para que responda mensajes de messenger. El mensaje si lo recibo en manychat, pero no entran las automatizaciones.Ya las publiqué y las puse live. Aun asi, manychat no usa ninguna automatizacion.Alguien me puede guiar por donde buscar la solucion?

Hi everyone!I'm new to the platform and trying to achieve something simple.I want to send a WhatsApp template message (already approved) to users of my app who are paying customers. For example, messages like a welcome message or a notification that their booking received a new review.I've been trying to do this with ManyChat, but I'm a bit confused about the correct setup.Do I need to make sure each user is subscribed to my ManyChat account first? If so, should I check whether the user is already subscribed before sending the message?Since I already have an active system with active clients, what would be the best way to handle this?I originally thought I could trigger an automation when ManyChat receives a webhook, but I couldn’t find a way to create or listen to a webhook in ManyChat.Also, I noticed that you can’t use an external request as the first step in a flow — only after another step.Any help or suggestions would be really appreciated!Thanks 🙏
