Conflicting info about free plan?

Do you or do you not need a credit card for the free plan? The pricing page shows no credit card needed but the directions show that you do need one - and when I try to activate the free trial since it shows us as using 0/1000 contacts, it won’t let me without a credit card. We have one account with a paid plan and automations are fine there, but the other account with the free plan will not work account.I deleted all automations on the free plan - I had tried to set several up but was unable to make them live so they haven’t been used.Super frustrating that it’s so hard to ask manychat.

How can I activate an automation in a free plan?

How can I activate an automation in a free plan? My trigger doesn't utilize any advanced features; it's straightforward (comment “XXX” to receive the XXX link in a direct message). I was under the impression that the free plan supports up to 1000 users, but only a few people have interacted with my message on Instagram so far.I appreciate any assistance you can offer!

Comment Auto-DM: How to make keyword "is" not "include"?

Hi guys,I am a beginner in Manychat and I have a question.Let’s say I want people to get my checklist when they comment CHECKLIST.I want people comment “CHECKLIST” ONLY. I dont want people to get my checklist when they use “checklist” in a sentence. For example, they write a comment “I like checklist” - I don’t want these people to get it. Is this possible? Any way to set up something like this?

how can i run multiple automations at the same time?

Hello community,  i’m having trouble running multiple automations at the same time and need some help on how to do it or structure it. We have a chatbot on manychats which feeds our crm, so we have multiple triggers such as detect city of interest and detect product of interest e.g. if user sends a whatsapp message that contains “X”, a flow of product “X” starts and it stores “X” in a custom field called product of interest. At the same time, if message contains “City Y” in the message, it stores “City Y” in a custom field called “City of interest”. But seems that if message says I’m interested in X in City Y, it runs only 1 automation (not sure how it chooses which to prioritize) Help would be much appreciated. Thank you

New automations don't work (Auto-DM links from comments)

Hi! I’ve been using Manychat for 2 weeks now and suddenly new automations are not working. I tried refreshing Instagram connection, but new automations still don’t work. All the previous ones do, however I am not able to create any new that is working. All seems fine in Manychat console but when I comment a keyword, no message is delievered. I double-checked keyword spelling and it should work on every post and reel. Any ideas what is the problem here?

Not a good addition

Why is this a new thing? This is anti-marketing 101. Less clicks = better results. Just get the link to their inbox, don’t make it a puzzle.Unless I’m missing something and this is a result of some legal issue with just sending something to someone’s inbox. But then ManyChat should specify that.

Automate Removal of Bad Phone Numbers

Feature Request:Please build into Manychat some default behavior for handling Critical SMS Errors.Expected Behaviors: When Manychat receives a response from the Twilio API that contains an error message (Example: Error 30003); notify the Admin of the Manychat account. Admin should be able to indicate how Manychat should handle those errors. Options should include: Ignore Error 30003  Update Contacts  Start Flow  Admin should no longer be notified about Error 30003, but will get notifications about other errors. Background & Issue: For the last 24 months, I’ve been sending SMS messages on a monthly basis. I’ve recently notice that each month, my percentage of the SMS messages that are UNDELIVERED is going up. I am being triple charged for these messages; for each failed SMS I’m paying Manychat, Twilio, and the phone carrier.

A lógica de ter um whatsapp business e não poder usá-lo!

Eu gostaria de entender a lógica de ter um whatsapp business já conectado a minha conta do Facebook Business e ao tentar conectar aqui no Manychat é recusada, porque?(Questão 1: Esse número será conectado a conta Manychat e só poderá ser usado com estratégias aqui, é isso?)Se o Facebook Business me concede a opção de fazer a conecção com a minha conta porque essa conta do whatsapp não é válida?Engraçado que ninguém faz um tutorial explicando o porque dessa situação?

Pause conversation after AI flow

Hi team! I’m having a serious issue with conversation tracking. In the flows where I have AI, once the flow is marked as closed, if the client writes anything right after, the conversation completely reopens. Is it possible to automatically pause the conversation for 1 day after it’s finished with the AI? That way, if the client writes something, no flow is triggered.

Exporting All Contact Data

Hi All. So I have about 350+ contacts through Whatsapp. In there, are the following custom fields. Full Name, Phone (some left this blank- but its whatsapp so its there), email, image upload and State. How can I export all of this information to a google sheet and include the phone number of the contact? I have tried the tag & sequence method but the phone number isn’t coming over.

Https Request

Hi, I have created an internal chatbot using CustomGPT and WhatsApp. My problem is that when there is a line break in the “last text input” (the last message on WhatsApp), ManyChat cannot send the request via the API. I don’t know why. It seems that line breaks are not supported, and there is no way to bypass this issue. There is also no way to modify a custom user field to remove the line breaks ?
