Client Log when Service/Subscription is Inactive or Experiencing Issues

Today, we encountered an issue with processing our subscription payment due to insufficient funds on our credit card.→ After adding funds and successfully retrying the payment, we lost previous conversations, and the logs did not register any client name attempts from trying to contact us.Additionally, conversations in the live chat tab were not recorded after the service was reactivated. Upon checking the Logs tab, there was no record of the client's/subscriber's name or WhatsApp number who attempted to reach out, nor did their messages appear in the live chat tab after the service was restored. → This creates a problem since we have no way of knowing who tried to contact us during this period.  Your WhatsApp incoming message wasn’t received. In this case, are we left in the dark, just waiting for clients to reach out again? Has anyone experienced this issue before or knows how to retrieve these contacts from the log?

Log de Clientes quando Serviço/Assinatura esta inativa ou com algum problema

Hoje ocorreu um problema no processamento do nosso pagamento da assinatura no cartão de crédito que estava com pouco saldo disponível. → Após a liberação do saldo e nova tentativa com sucesso, se perderam as conversas e não registrou nem nos logs quem tentou entrar em contato conosco ou muito menos as conversas na aba de chat ao vivo após a reativação do serviço.. Ao verificar na aba de Logs, nem mesmo o nome do cliente/inscrito ou whatsapp de que tentou entrar em contato foi registrado, nem tão pouco entrou na aba do chat ao vivo após a reativação do serviço, o que impacta por não sabermos quem tentou entrar em contato nesse período..  Your WhatsApp incoming message wasn’t received. Nesse caso, ficamos as “cegas” esperando os clientes chamarem novamente? Alguém já passou por isso, ou sabe como achar esses contatos no log?

Facebook Comments - User comments on your post | Limited "Negative Keywords"

Greetings! I have been using Manychat since 2021, but I have hit a wall concerning this Growth Tool. In the past, I could add a large list of “negative keywords” that the bot would exclude from its trigger. But now it seems that I can only add 10 of them. Is there something I am missing or a solution for this?

Why isn't my automation working?

Hello I'm new to manychat and just starting with the free version to try it out. I set up an automation a few weeks ago with a trigger word on an instagram post to send them a message with a link when they comment that word. It worked.Then I tried again today to do it and it won't let me proceed without signing up to Pro...I'm pretty sure this is not a pro feature though since the other Pro templates are marked as Pro and this was not?Also, when it says engage up to 1000 contacts does this mean how many followers you have or does it mean how many people actually engage the post by commenting?It's a bit confusing.Thanks!

Using the Same WhatsApp Number in Manychat and Meta API for Automated Messages

Hey everyone! 👋I have a WhatsApp bot connected to Manychat and want to send message templates using the WhatsApp API from my CRM (located in Retool) without interfering with Manychat’s flows.My goal is:1️⃣ Keep handling incoming messages through Manychat and its flows.2️⃣ Send automated message templates via the WhatsApp API from Retool (e.g., when a subscription is about to expire).3️⃣ Ensure that after a message is sent via Retool, the user is redirected to a specific Manychat flow using some keywords.The issue:I want to register my number as permanent in Meta for Developers, but it's already set up in Manychat. Can I use the same number for both Manychat and API calls from Retool without breaking Manychat’s setup?Has anyone done this before? Any guidance would be super helpful! 🚀Thanks in advance! 😊

Issues with DM Links!!

I have had numerous issues with my DM links. It’s pretty frustrating, half the time I don’t even know if the link is working for those receiving the DM unless they tell me. The link works for me when I test it out but for some users it doesn’t! This is the error they are receiving when they click the link OR they just DON’T see the message even if I see it on my end!It’s frustrating paying for something and it just not working sometimes??Anyone else having these issues and how can it be fixed?

How to send a large video to a chat bot in telegram

I am making a sales funnel of 3 videos in a chatbot and I want the client not to leave the chatbot in Telegram.My video weighs from 150 to 400 megabytes, and Many Chat has a video size limit of 25 megabytes.And as a result, I tried the speaker function, but, unfortunately, I could not set it up.And now I would like to understand how to set it up, considering that I am not a programmer. Tell me how to do this as simply as possible and is it possible in principle?

Broadcast Stuck – only 82 out of 749 Messages Delivered!

Hey everyone! 👋I’m running into a strange issue with my ManyChat broadcast, and I’m hoping someone here has seen this before.Here’s what’s happening:I sent out a broadcast to 749 people. It’s been a while, and only 80 messages have been delivered. 😕 (But it says 730 are sent, and only 80 messsages delivered) Some even replied back to me, and are not in the “delivered” tap The rest seem stuck or delayed, and I don’t know why. This was a promotional message, but everyone on my list opted in to receive these.I’ve checked a few things:✅ The broadcast is marked as "sent" in ManyChat.✅ My audience subscribed willingly and engaged with past messages.✅ I followed Meta’s rules—or at least I think I did! 😅  Is Meta throttling or delaying my messages?Could some messages be blocked? How do I check?Should I break this into smaller segments instead? Any settings I might have missed?

broadcasting can't find the "promotional content tap"

Hi, I’m having trouble understanding how to correctly set the content type for my broadcasts in Manychat.I’ve created a list where users have explicitly opted in to receive daily updates (promotional messages). However, when I send the broadcast and check afterward, it’s marked as non-promotional content, even though the message is promotional in nature.When I’m setting up the broadcast, I notice a "Reason" field during the process, but it only shows me the list I’ve created and doesn’t give me the option to specify whether the broadcast is promotional or non-promotional. I can’t find any settings or options to adjust this during the setup process.Could someone guide me on how to properly configure the broadcast type as promotional? Thanks in advance for your help!

AUTOMATION PROBLEM

Hi everyone, I have a problem wiht automation that I don’t know how to turn off and it’s active on my IG. The automation is about anyone commenting anything under any post/reel rusults in getting a message about unrealated thing (always the same one). So if there is an automation for a word, let’s say IDIOM, they get the right message, but if they comment something different, literally anything else, even “good job” - they immadiately get a message (unrelated to any post) and I don’t where to find this automation and first of all - how to turn it off :(

Issue Integrating Phone Number with WhatsApp API via Manychat

Hi everyone,I’d like to share an issue I’m experiencing while trying to integrate a phone number for use via the WhatsApp API through Manychat.Initially, when attempting to integrate the phone number for the first time, we encountered a problem—the verification code from Meta never arrived due to an issue with our device. Once we resolved the device issue, we attempted to finish the integration process. However, since it took us some time to fix the problem, the browser did not function properly when requesting a new code. As a result, we decided to restart the process.To ensure a clean setup, I went to Business Manager, deleted the WhatsApp Account, and started the integration again from Manychat. However, just before reaching the step where we request the verification code, an error message appeared stating:"The selected commercial portfolio has the following restrictions, which may affect your ability to create or modify WhatsApp Business accounts."We attempted the process multiple
