Quiero conectar Facebook a Manychat, aparte de Instagram ¿Es posible?

Ayer acabo de empezar mi prueba de 14 días y quiero conectar mi cuenta de facebook (instagram ya está), pero me sale a pagar nuevamente. Sólo que el correo de facturación es diferente al de las cuentas de IG y face. ¿Debo usar el mismo para facturación y cuentas de trabajo?

How do I only reply to an IG comment without also sending a DM?

Hello!I have the free version.    I am trying to set up a flow that simply responds to an Instagram comment with a public comment reply.  I do not want it to send a DM.  When I set up the trigger for “respond to comment on post or reel”, it walks me through steps within the trigger itself to pick the post and set up some replies, which I have done. But then it requires me to add a second step. I don’t need or want another step but it won’t work without one.  The only second step in the flow I can see to add is “send message” and I have tried adding that and setting it to comment only, but it is sending it as a DM.I really just want it to reply with the few replies I set up in trigger. How do I get it to do that?thanks in advancejean

Refresh Permissions Issue

at the top of my screen it always says I need to refresh permissions and it never works. My automations seem to be working but it worries me. It also shows my “company name” through Meta Business as a name that is NOT my business, it was a business I owned 5 years ago and it is no longer active. Any advice on what I can do?

Is there any solution for quick reply buttons not sending/showing?

I have seen repeated reports & questions regarding buttons not sending / quick replies not working - going as far back as 1y ago. No Manychat support provided other than some vague “reset your permissions” or send link without buttons (not great of you are trying to get emails in platform and have advanced automations with follow ups).Does anyone actually have a plausible explanation and suggested fix? I personally suspect the devices playing a role as Iphone seems to have the most success. Given that Android is far more common globally, you’d think this ranks a bit higher in terms of finding a solution?

But still Manychat has the phone number, and I do want to keep the phone number. How can I do this?

Is ManyChat Creating Datasets Automatically?

Hi team!I recently was creating a new account for a client using Instagram as a channel. I filled the usual survive and then I proceeded to visit the Settings tab for Instagram channel and I noticed a Dataset was already connected.This dataset was definitely created by ManyChat as this is also a brand new Business Manager; I don’t remember what was the question that triggered the dataset creation but I definitely think you should display a clear note that states a dataset will be created, ideally with a toggle to enable or disable this step.Reason for these suggestions is that not everyone (myself included) are happy with assets like this being created automatically without a proper notification.

WhatsApp Messages not sending (Make.com) but no error shown

This is a first. I will run through my set up and then the "error". At 5:30pm, Sunday through Saturday an scenario in Make.com will trigger to gather the information of appointment data (Acuity Scheduling) of the next day and send an appointment reminder to either confirm, re-schedule or cancel their appointment. Every patient in Acuity must have their own phone number in order to send the reminder through WhatsApp. I first look for the contact in Manychat with the phone number as a custom field. If the contact doesn't exists, it is created. After that, I update some of the contact's custom fields that contain the appointment data and finally I send the message using the "Send Flow" module of Manychat in Make.com.This has been working good for over a month now. Yesterday the workflow ran as usual with no errors.This is one of the situations in which the "error" occured.I get notified that some patients didn't receive the reminder and here's the kicker: in the chat with the contact the

Can’t Send Message via Make After User DM – 24hr Window Not Resetting

Hey everyone! I’m having an issue with sending messages through Make after a user sends us a DM on Instagram.Here’s the situation: A user sends a new message (text or DM reply) That should reset the 24-hour interaction window, right? But when I try to send a follow-up message using Make + ManyChat API, it still says the interaction is outside the window. I’ve verified that the user replied within the last few minutes, but it’s like ManyChat doesn’t detect it in time or doesn’t update the window properly.

Question: “Opted-In for WhatsApp” Subscriber Still Triggers 24h Error

Hi Community 👋I have a subscriber whose contact information in ManyChat shows “Opted-In for WhatsApp” However, when I try to send them a flow using the sendFlow API, I get this error: "Content can’t be sent to the subscriber without a message tag. Subscriber’s last interaction was over 58h ago (more than 24 hours ago)."  I assumed that being marked as “Opted-In for WhatsApp” would allow messages outside the 24-hour window, but apparently not? Could someone please clarify: Does "Opted-In for WhatsApp" allow sending after 24h? Note I am sending message_tag: "CONFIRMED_EVENT_UPDATE".

Finding contact with "whatsapp_phone" field

Hi :)I’m sending a request to Manychat to create a WhatsApp Contact. If the contact already exists, I receive a 400 (makes sense). The thing I can’t seem to understand is how do I update a contact that already exists and only has a “whatsapp_phone” as a field I can refer to. I can’t use the findBySystemField request to find the ID (because the contact doesn’t have a phone or email in Manychat) and I can’t update the contact without the ID.Please help!Thanks

Issue with Thrivecart Links when setting up automations

Since the recent changes to Manychat I am unable to set up automations with buttons that go to Thrivecart links. I just get an error message stating that it is not a valid link ….. This is so frustrating especially considering in my field Thrivecart is one of the main forms of external links to get affiliate income / recognition.The only way I can do this is to add the link in the text but that isn’t a great customer experience as they then have to copy and paste it anyway.Any idea when this glitch will be addressed / fixed? Is there a different way for me to get the convent clickable links for my followers?

Invisible New Automation option (Redirect Customers to your website)

Hello Manychatters! I'm trying to find a template to create a new automation in MenuChat, but I don't see the option to redirect customers to your website. I'm not sure why this is happening, because my colleague has this option available on his account, and I need it to redirect my customers to the appropriate attachments.Could you please let me know if you've encountered this issue before and if there's a way to fix it?

Reply to comments on an Ad with a link to a page

hi there,  Im wondering about using many chat to push people to a trivia page with Quiz Questions to warm up potential attendees to quiz events.  It would look like this -  Ad is running for a Harry Potter quiz evening event. The ad is pushing people to the ticket purchasing page. Within the Ad is a prompt for people to comment something like ‘comment POTTER10 and we will send you 10 free questions that will be asked on the night to prepare you’ the viewer would then comment POTTER10 and a message would then be sent to their inbox with a link to the page with the 10 questions and answers.  Am I able to do this? I want to the AD to go to the ticket purchase page. I DONT want the ad to be solely for the purpose of sending them the link to the questions.  Is this possible? Thanks in advance! Andrew

Instagram Live - How can I allow participants to trigger different automations to view more than one product via a link button?

Hi,  we are trying to sale different products on our Instagram Lives based on keywords in our live chat. The issue is only one automation is firing, but after, say they want to view a different product the next automation won’t trigger even though it’s set to a different keyword. In settings, I see there is a “Pause automations during conversations” but no way to turn off or lower the “30min” timer. Is this option limiting the automation from triggering, or are we not setting up this process correctly?

Major Billing / Login Issue

Hi I recently changed my credit card so I am trying to update billing method on manychat. Anyways it won’t let me update my billing method because I can’t get back to my “owner” account. I have a PRO account under my email which I get billed 125 a month for, for 20,000 contacts and it’s been automatically paying, but when I try signing in with that email to manychat, it is saying no accounts exists. The only reason I can still control automation is because I gave another one of my emails access, but it still won’t let me change the billing.Is there anyway I can contact manychat to update the billing for the pro account or allow me to login? I have proof that I am the owner and getting invoiced every month.
