Hey- I currently have IG connected, and am trying to add my FB Business Page. When I go to settings > Channels > Facebook Messenger, my business page pops up right away and it already says “Connected” in gray. But in my home page and everywhere else it only shows 1 channel-- my IG-- and I can’t create automations for the FB Business Page.  I’ve tried disconnecting and reconnecting Facebook. I went into Meta and made sure that my page is in fact a Business page and also put it under a Meta “Business Suite”. In Facebook Settings, I see that ManyChat has permissions… but seemingly no meaningful access within ManyChat.  Any advice?? TYIA.

Hello. We have messenger list we were sending broadcast to on a regular basis (~daily). We were doing it for a long time (year or so). There are ~10k users on the list. Since beginning of October we do it in the same way but the result changed. Broadcast goes to the full list like every 3 days. On the other two days ONLY 50-100 users is being sent. Is there any change of the allowed frequency or something like this? In the settings I see no error logs.

Hi,I have setup manychat autmation ‘Auto-DM from Comments’ for a reel and it works perfectly fine. However, the automation doesn’t work at all when the reel is boosted. How to fix this?P.S. I noted that meta creates a different reel ID for the boosted reel and perhaps that’s why manychat is unable to apply automation to it.. but at the same time, in Manychat’s documentation, it is written that it does work for boosted content. 

Hi everyone! 👋I'm running into a strange issue with my automation. In one of my flows, I added a message with just one button as a reply option. But when I test it on Instagram, two extra buttons show up — and those ones doesn’t exist in my flow at all.Here’s what I’ve already tried: Rebuilt the entire flow from scratch (no copy-pasting) Cleared the Instagram conversation and started fresh Double-checked that no other keyword, trigger, or default reply is interfering Made sure there are no other conditions, fallback paths, or user fields affecting the flow Even after all that, the mystery buttons still appears Has anyone experienced something similar? Any ideas what might be causing it?Thanks in advance for your help! 🙏

I couldnot remove Telegram bot on manychat, there isnot ant buttons to remove, how can I do it?

Hello, I had the free plan and upgraded to PRO. Of the three automations I have activated on Instagram, none of them launch when someone makes a comment. Why? What is happening? Can you fix this problem? Thank you.

Hola, tenía el plan gratuito y lo he actualizado a PRO. De las 3 automatizaciones que tengo activadas en Instagram ninguna se lanza cuando hacen un comentario. ¿Por qué?¿Qué está ocurriendo?

No matter what I do, Manychat is not working properly with my Instagram account. I’ve disconnected and reconnected multiple times. Does anyone know how to fix this issue? None of my automations are working and this has been a problem for weeks now

Hi everyone! I’m using ManyChat to reply to comments and send information about the promo I’m currently promoting. However, I’d like to know how I can create another automation only if the user doesn’t reply to my message. I’ve read all about the 24-hour window, but I can’t find the condition for “not answered” in ManyChat. If anyone can help, I’d really appreciate it!

I am interested in using a feature that allows automatic DMs to be sent when comments are made on specific content. However, I would like to know if this feature also works with Instagram's sponsored posts. If I run an ad on a specific post and someone clicks on the ad and leaves a comment, will a DM still be sent?

Hi everyone 👋I’m running a ManyChat → n8n → ManyChat automation that used to work perfectly fine until recently.Now, every time I try to send a message through the ManyChat API using n8n’s HTTP Request node, I get this error: 400 - {"status":"error","message":"validation error","details":{"messages":[{"message":"Subscriber does not exist"}]}}At first, I thought it was a permission or token issue — but after debugging, I noticed something strange:👉 The last digit of the subscriber_id sent from n8n is different from the actual subscriber_id shown inside ManyChat.Example: Actual ID in ManyChat: 25021534494149752 ID sent in the API request: 25021534494149750 That one-digit difference causes the ManyChat API to reject the request with “Subscriber does not exist”, even though the user is active and subscribed. How to fix 

Im not able to turn off IG auto reply message that with AI intention. Anyone help me please?

Hey! Been having this occurrence where I set up a node to create a contact, and when the contact already exists inside our database on manychat, we try to retrieve their ID through a request to find subscriber by custom field, to then send a flow. The thing is, the output on N8N sometimes is “data - success”, with no info regarding the contact. Other times, id the is not found on the immediate previous node, but on some other one a few steps behind, so I’m always having to manually change the parameter so it can get the right info from a different node.But sometimes neither request display the contact’s info.I’m new to N8N, any help would be highly appreciated!

I am struggling to send messages to a subscribed person on instagram. I am getting the following error:```2025-10-14T16:58:10.921-0600    ERROR   manychat/client.go:145  ManyChat API error response     {"status_code": 400, "response_body": "{\"status\":\"error\",\"message\":\"Content can’t be sent to the subscriber without a message tag.

Our Messenger flows are not working properly. More specifically, it seems like the contacts are clicking our buttons we have set up in our messages, but the flows aren’t continuing down the path in the flows. Anyone else experiencing this/any troubleshooting steps I can take?

Hello! How do I access the “User Follows Your Account" beta feature? I saw this feature on the client page, but I don't see it in my account.  I really want to get access to this beta version!

Hi everyone!I need some help with my automation setup in ManyChat using Google Sheets. Here’s what I’m doing: I’ve connected Google Sheets to my flow. I’ve divided my data collection into two parts: Part 1: When a user shows interest, I insert their info (name, phone, tag, etc.) as a new row in Google Sheets. Part 2: Later in the conversation, if the same user confirms interest and books a meeting, I collect their meeting date and time. Now, instead of adding a new row again, I want to update the same row from Part 1 with the meeting date and time. So basically — I want to update the user’s existing row (where their data was first inserted) instead of creating a new one.Can someone please guide me on how to update the same row in Google Sheets from ManyChat?Any step-by-step help would be great! 🙏 P.S: I have tried the update a row action but it is not working, it is adding another row and inserting the new data there.. adding screenshots below.
