Does Manychat/Meta charge for WhatsApp messages that didn't get sent?

Hello! If I send a WhatsApp message to a contact that appeared to have a valid phone number, but that turns out to not be true, is the message I sent charged as usual? A few of my contacts had invalid phone numbers (that passed as valid), but the message wasn’t sent or didn’t have arrive to their phones, so I’m wondering if I’m paying regardless.Thank you!

Voiceflow Integration - Not working as it should with template and throwing errors

I am using the voiceflow to manychat connection template by Omnifusion (linked below) however I’m experiencing a bug somewhere in the pre-made template and I can’t for the life of me figure out where it is or how to solve it. I think I’ve pinpointed it to one area of code, however when I’ve validated the code it appears to be fine. Has anyone experienced similar errors? Or do you have experience with this template/connection and can offer assistance? Many thanks!https://app.manychat.com/flowPlayerPage?share_hash=740143_98c18452de32fe8330e8ae8038d61053bf49369f

Instagram DM List

Hey, I can't find the option to send messages to people on Instagram outside the 24-hour window. I would like to create DM lists for Instagram, but I don't have that option. Even though I create actions to set up opt-in for Instagram, it still doesn't work. Is there any other way to do this?

Confirming email

Hi, I’m just getting back into ManyChat and started building out an automation. There used to be a feature where the bot would auto-populate a person’s email, and it would say something like this “confirm your email below by tapping it, otherwise you can enter a different email.” ManyChat would automatically pull the user’s email address from their account and insert it into the message so the person could tap to confirm it, but I don’t see that any more. Is that feature no longer available? Or am I just missing it? Thanks!

External Request

Hi everyone!I'm currently using the ManyChat PRO trial. I've been trying to set up an automation using an External Request (Webhook) to connect with OpenAI via Make.com, but the option "External Request" is not showing up in my Actions list.I've already tried: Using Flow Builder (visual editor). Clicking "+" button to add a new Action block separately. Checking the ManyChat App marketplace to install the External Request (but I don't see this option). Has anyone faced this issue or knows why this might be happening? Is it a known bug, or am I missing something to activate the External Request feature?Any help would be greatly appreciated—thank you!

Automation does not start when clicking the Start button in Telegram.

Hello. When a user subscribes to the bot in Telegram for the first time, they click the Start button, and the Telegram Welcome Message automation — which also contains a flow trigger — is supposed to launch. However, after clicking the Start button, nothing happens, and the user has to click Restart for the Telegram Welcome Message automation to start. What could be the reason for this incorrect behavior?

SMS Not Sending

Has anyone setup sms messages that won’t send? I’mA2P approved on Twilio and have a few phone numbers and account all working fine, except my newest client. I can’t remember if SMS can be sent right away or has to wait 24hrs? There’s a little square x next to my profile pic as well. Does anyone know the fix or familiarwith this issue?

Is our Shopify solution viable for ecommerce and Manychat?

Hey everyone, long time MC user and looking for some feedback for our development of a physical product solution / integration with Shopify and Manychat.We rely on MC heavily and love its simplicity, but the ecommerce side of things (and not having it) is taking it’s toll. Instead of leaving, we’re building for it! One important thing I forgot to mention in the video is after serving the physical products, we can hop right back into another MC flow. Question is, is this viable? Would anyone use it? Appreciate it ahead of time!

Connecting manychat and n8n

Hello ManyChat Community,I’m encountering an issue where messages sent to my ManyChat workflow via webhook (from n8n) preserve line breaks (\n), causing formatting problems. For example:Input:json"message": "line1 \nline2 \nline3?"Current Output: Displays with unwanted line breaks.Desired Output: Should display as a (single line).I’ve tried: Using replace(/\n/g, ' ') in n8n’s Function/Webhook nodes Enabling Raw Body and First Entry JSON Testing with escaped (\\n) and unescaped line breaks But Manychat still doesn’t accept the format and breaksHas anyone resolved this or found a native ManyChat setting to auto-remove line breaks? Any insights would be greatly appreciated!Workflow Context: Webhook → n8n (transformation) → ManyChat API Goal: Cleaned message delivery to users.

Reconnecting My IG after Changing Password

Trying to troubleshoot - I had to change my IG Password this weekend and reconnecting ManyChat has taken me more time than I care to admit.  None of my automations are working no matter how much I refresh my persmissions, edit my meta suite, and all the ManyChat instructional videos I’m finding are too old to help (My screen looks completely different than what they’re showing).  I tried re-doing my automations, still nothing.  ManyChat has no customer service so I’m at a complete loss of what to do next.   I’ve been at this for hours.

Sending DM's for a word I do not have listed as a keyword

Manychat has been triggering a DM automation every time someone comments the word “good” on any post (which you can imagine is a pretty common word). I never set up a DM trigger using that keyword and have searched my automations at least 10 times and it doesn’t show any trigger with that keyword. It is triggered at least 10x’s a day at looks extremely unprofessional. Does anyone have any idea of how to stop this from happening or how to actually get a hold of Manychat customer service? Thank you!
