Hello, I hope someone can help me with my question.I have multiple clients, all of whom are managed under a single business portfolio. My goal is to automate the chat functionality on their Facebook and Instagram pages using AI. I am currently in the process of adding their accounts.My question is:Do I need to pay for a separate ManyChat subscription and a separate AI automation service subscription for each client? Or is it possible to automate multiple clients' accounts with a single ManyChat subscription and a single AI automation service subscription? ​​​​​​​If the latter is possible, what is the limit on the number of clients or accounts I can automate under a single subscription?Thank you for your assistance

Hello! We’ve received 3 days block for dm from the Instagram because of broadcasting. If your service is approved by Meta, why did it happen? If it’s because of the new rules of Meta, may be there’s a list of recommendation from you which we’ve missed and which will help us not to get blocked?

PLEASE HELP ME! LOL - I use Flodesk and have an entire seperate workflow over there that i love and that works well so I don’t care to use the email in here. Unless someone can change my mind otherwise. lol 

I recently hit a glitch in the system. My automations were running just fine and one day my account disconnected. I reconnected the account, however this is happening. My key word automations will start, but then after the lead clicks on the button, the second message (for all automations) will NOT send. Has this happened to anyone, and if it has, what have you done to resolve this issue? Thanks, Cavan

I am building an AI agent for upselling. In the AI step, I am saving user replies in a custom field, as shown in the screenshot. However, I am facing an issue—user replies are not being saved in the custom field, but AI responses are. How can I fix this and ensure user replies are saved instead of AI response?

I setup Whataspp automation where it seems working fine in Many Chat live chat where all conversation shows fine, however in the contact devices nothing shows there but the messages he initiated ,given that in the contact messages sent shown with two ticks.  

Hey!I have contacts that are attached to different channels such as Messenger or SMS.I want to update the contact person on the WhatsApp channel, but I don't see an option to opt-in to the WhatsApp channel, only Opt-out.What am I missing?By the way, I also tried to update the contact via API but without success.

My automation for WhatsApp appears to be responding, but the person sending the message does not get any responses.  Minha automação para WhatsApp parece estar respondendo, mas a pessoa que envia a mensagem não recebe nenhuma resposta.

I’m starting the WhatsApp conversations sending a flow to subscribers. That flow is sending a template message.The problem is when I enter the Live Chat, I don’t see any conversation started, and I can’t review what the users responded. Is there a workaround for that? Thank you.

https://community.manychat.com/ideas/audio-handling-for-user-input-default-reply-986/index2.html This thread is talking exactly about my problem. Im trying to recieve audio as a user input WITHOUT using the Wait for Response set to File type. I want it to recieve as a link in “last_user_input” or something like that, Is there a solution or any workaround? Thank you! 

We are working with a city to implement a chatbot for WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook, and their website. The bot should not only provide information but also allow users to fill out forms directly within the chat.We need a centralized platform to manage these forms, which the bot can trigger based on user requests. For example, if someone wants to apply for a fishing license, the bot should open the relevant form within the chat, the user fills it out, submits it, and the city receives the data for further processing. The key requirement is that users stay within the platform (WhatsApp, Instagram, etc.) rather than being redirected to an external form like Typeform. Now as far as the knowledge system goes this can easily be integrated into the flow I suppose. We need to find a way to sync their database with a vector database like supabase or Pinecone but that I guess can easily be integrated. But regarding the rest: Can Manychat fulfill this?Thanks

Hi, I'm setting up an email marketing campaign using sequences, but I'm confused about how the timing works. I understand the "schedule" feature, which lets me specify when emails are sent. However, when I add a new sequence message (e.g., "Sequence Message 2"), it's asking me to set a trigger for when the message should be sent. I thought the schedule already controlled this, so I’m not sure what to do. Can you clarify how to set this up correctly? I dont want the “when” trigger box to be there but it cant be deleted?   

Hi, Im trying to set up an email marketing campaign using sequences (i think thats where i should be doing it). I understand the “schedule” feature well- using this to schedule when emails are sent out. The problem is every time im adding a new “sequence message” ie- “sequence message 2”, it asks me to set a trigger for “WHEN” the message is sent. I dont know how to set this up because i thought that the “schedule” option already alows me to spcify when the email is being sent out.  Thanks for the help in advance.  

Hey,Does anyone know how to display an array (text type) as buttons in Telegram?For example, this is the response I receive:I managed to save all the curtains in the contact's database, and so far, everything is working great.Now, I want to give the user a button in Telegram for "Green Curtain" and another button for "blue curtain" (this should dynamically change based on the received response).Does anyone know a way to do this? { "status": "success", "response": { "curtains": [ "Green curtains", "blue curtains" ] } }

Hi guys, my whatsapp number is not working at all.

I am reaching out because I have an auto-reply message activated on my Instagram account, which automatically replies to users who message me. However, I am unable to find where to disable or modify this auto-reply feature. I’ve followed all of the troubleshooting steps suggested by ChatGPT, but unfortunately, none of them have worked. I’ve looked through the settings and options available, but the auto-reply seems to remain active. Could you please assist me in disabling this feature or guide me on how to resolve this issue?

A non follower commented a keyword to receive a message with two buttons. On my end the message shows sent but on their end they just received an empty message because they first had to accept receiving a message from my account since they do not follow me. So essentially the automated message doesn’t reach them after they accept my message request. Is there anyway to fix this? 

Hi team,I’m not able to connect my Instagram account as it always keeps asking me to request access but then I’m not getting any request for approval. Have tried everything and the support team is unresponsive.

I changed my Facebook passwords a few days ago. After that my automations stopped working. I refreshed permissions. They appear to be alive, but none are working. I signed out, signed in disabled and enabled still not working.

Hi!I have started using manychat and I have built a Instagram template that would make appointments and when testing, everything worked until I have sent message to the test account to which manychat and its template was linked . That message would have triggered the template to work, however I didn't get the message I wanted, I got "This template works!", each time I have sent message.I really don't know why it has happened. I would appreciate if someone could help me with that problem

Hello, I am encountering an issue when trying to send messages via the ManyChat API using the POST /fb/sending/sendContent endpoint. Despite correctly setting the subscriberId, I am receiving the following error: {   "status": "error",   "message": "Validation error",   "details": {       "messages": [           {               "message": "subscriber_id cannot be blank."           }       ]   }} Here are the key points: 1. Subscriber ID is being correctly passed (949015054).  2. The request body is structured as follows:   {   "subscriberId": "949015054",   "message": {       "text": "Your message here"   }} 3. The Authorization header and Content-Type are set properly: Authorization: Bearer [token] Content-Type: application/json  

I am new to ManyChat and have built a few automations (Instagram Comments). I have inserted a Smart Delay after sending a message with the link to a free eBook, I’d like to have a short delay and then send them a follow up message that says thanks for joining our community … I have inserted a smart delay of 10 seconds … but the bot does’t delay sending the follow up mesage. Scratch this question … I figured it out

I frequently use Manychat on my mobile devices but i have not be able to use them because it says they need to be updated. The application just go into a loop and doesn’t allow me to update. Is anyone else having this issue?

I need a coupon code to upgrade from Manychat trial to Pro. Can anyone tell me what code to use?
