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?

I can’t link my Instagram account to ManyChat

Não consigo vincular minha conta do Instagram ao ManyChat. Aparece uma mensagem informando que uma solicitação de aprovação foi enviada ao proprietário da conta do ManyChat, mas não consigo encontrar essa solicitação em lugar nenhum — nem no Instagram, nem por e-mail, nem no Facebook. Você poderia me ajudar? Não reconheço o perfil vinculado à minha conta. Em anexo segue uma foto.

BUG NA AUTOMAÇÃO DE COMENTÁRIO → DM | ManyChat + Instagram

Oi, pessoal! Estou enfrentando um problema técnico com uma automação no ManyChat e preciso de uma ajuda da comunidade.🧩 Contexto da automação: Quando alguém comenta uma palavra-chave específica em um post ou vídeo no Instagram (gatilho de comentário), a automação envia uma mensagem direta (DM) inicial via ManyChat. Essa primeira mensagem é enviada corretamente, mas quando a pessoa clica no botão da mensagem, a automação não continua. ✅ Já tentei: Atualizar as permissões da conta no ManyChat e Meta Business. Alterar o local do opt-in (por exemplo, redefinir o gatilho e recriar o flow). Testar com diferentes palavras-chave e diferentes usuários. 📸 Exemplo prático:(Segue print da conversa onde o usuário responde normalmente e clica no botão, mas a sequência não é disparada como esperado.)❓Alguém já passou por isso ou sabe como resolver?Será que é alguma limitação recente do Instagram ou do próprio ManyChat? Existe alguma configuração avançada que preciso ativar para que os botões

Still no ManyChat - TikTok integration? This is seriously blocking automation for us

I've been waiting for months for ManyChat to finally allow TikTok integration. Honestly, it's getting frustrating.I'm based in France and this delay is holding back my automations and campaign management.Does anyone have a workaround, maybe using N8N or another tool, to automate with TikTok anyway?I’m open to any serious solutions. Please share your feedback or hacks, because waiting for ManyChat to move on this is becoming endless…

How do I only reply to an IG comment without also sending a DM?

Hello!I have the free version.    I am trying to set up a flow that simply responds to an Instagram comment with a public comment reply.  I do not want it to send a DM.  When I set up the trigger for “respond to comment on post or reel”, it walks me through steps within the trigger itself to pick the post and set up some replies, which I have done. But then it requires me to add a second step. I don’t need or want another step but it won’t work without one.  The only second step in the flow I can see to add is “send message” and I have tried adding that and setting it to comment only, but it is sending it as a DM.I really just want it to reply with the few replies I set up in trigger. How do I get it to do that?thanks in advancejean

Refresh Permissions Issue

at the top of my screen it always says I need to refresh permissions and it never works. My automations seem to be working but it worries me. It also shows my “company name” through Meta Business as a name that is NOT my business, it was a business I owned 5 years ago and it is no longer active. Any advice on what I can do?

Do Whatsapp contacts count as a contact or are they separate?

Hello community! I want to know, if Whatsapp users that interact with my account and send messages count as contacts or if they are kept separate. Also, if I already have an existing contact list of Whatsapp users that have interacted with me, can I import them in Manychat and would I have to get their permission to send them messages again, even though I got that permission in the past? Thank you for your help! :)

I was charged twice, what to do?

I’m in uttermost shocked for being charged twice! I had a page on Instagram that I deleted but got charged anyway by many chats. I would kindly want my subscription on ‘Jish’ to be forwarded to my ‘money.with.jish’ account.  No! I can’t be paying twice for a service that I haven’t utilised!!

Automation not working

Ok so I’ve been trying to set this up for days.  I did the automation steps correctly, and tested it on another one of my IG accounts, and when I comment the word, its not following through with the steps! I tried finding solutions on you tube, the manychat site, chatgpt, and I cannot get it to work. Super frustrating.  Please give me all of the tips/advice.  thank you!

Automation is not working on one Instagram post but works on all others

HiI have set up a ManyChat automation for Instagram that if a person comments on any post, reel or story that they will receive a message and a link to a downloadable.The automation is working on some posts but not the main post that has the call to action for my followers.I have set up the automation again for that specific post and it is still not working.I have refreshed permissions but don’t think that is the issue as the automation is working on other posts just not the specific post I would like it to work for.
