Call different automation with a variable context?

My client wants me to make three primary automations, all three need to collect basic information like the person’s name and phone number. Well, each primary automation has it’s own Google Sheet.I want to avoid having to manually recreate the steps to collect basic information for every single automation because he wants all the data stored in specific Google Sheets.I’m a programmer, it’s just a programming variable. The whole point is I’m collecting the exact same contact information regardless of the automation though it all has to go in to the (same named columns) of each relative Google Sheet.Is this possible or am I stuck having to manually do everything repetitiously?

How to consider first message as a user input?

Hi, i’m struggling to take into account the first message of a new customer contacting me as a user input so I can trigger chatGPT directly to know its intention. I know there is an AI plan in Manychat allowing to get the intention of a message but isn’t there a way to put the *first message* in a variable so I can answer him in a smart way? I could use the “message contains...” feature but I prefer by far asking chatGPT to classify the intention himself. If a user sends me “Hello i’d like to know your prices”, I’d like to take into account his very first message to start the automation instead of telling me to write a message that I can then classify with chatGPT (which I can do thanks to user input). Thanks a lot!

Automation isn't working with Instagram ads

I’ve started running Instagram ads, but when someone comments on the actual ad rather than the original post in my feed, the ManyChat automation I set up doesn’t work. Can anyone help with this?

Manychat customer service number??

I would like to speak to a real person of manychat, not a the bot. Do they have a phone number to speak to a representative or schedule an appointment to have a video chat?

How Can I Automate Multiple Sequential Responses in ManyChat?

Hello ManyChat Community,I would like to inquire about the automation setup in ManyChat.Currently, ManyChat responds with one text message for each reply from the audience. I would like to configure ManyChat to respond with multiple messages, similar to how a human would. For example, ManyChat would first send "Hello," then follow up with "How are you doing?" and finally, "How can I help you?"—even if the client hasn't responded yet.Instead of sending "Hello, how are you doing? How can I help you?" in a single text message, I want these to be sent as separate messages.Thank you for your assistance.

How Can We Track Payments for Existing Leads Using a Stripe Link in ManyChat?

I’m setting up an AI chat automation and I want it to send my contacts personalized links. Each contact has a unique ID stored in a dedicated custom field. I want that a link I send has an added parameter that contains unique ID of the contact. Is it possible? How to mention it in the prompt to instruct the AI chat to generate a personalized link? Alternatively, can we just put a link inside a dedicated field in the contact and ask AI to get inside the contact and get the link from there?

Google Sheet not showing up

Hey!I am having an issue with a client’s Google Sheet. We did refresh permissions and re-installed the google sheet connection and still the M114-Manychat Leads Google Sheet he made is not showing up. I tested on my account creating a new sheet and set it like he had it and it populated on my account. I am going to have him create a new google sheet, see if this one does populate, but what also could be the issue?

How pricing works per Facebook Page?

I don't understand how pricing works when working with multiple Facebook Pages.Is it just based on contacts? Can I have multiple pages?How pricing works then?Is a tier calculated on each single FB Page or it aggregates the contacts from all pages? Say I handle 60 pages. Will I pay a minimum of 60*$15 = $900 a month for Pro?  Or is it based aggregating all contacts together between all pages?

I’m able to pull my information from Stealth to see the different times of my webinar, however I’m running into issues when it comes to sending their choice of time to Stealth. Not sure if this is something I can do through an extension or Zap.

New User Fields Folder not appearing after hard-page-reload

I went to Settings. I went to Fields. I created a folder Loans. I created a New User Field. I named the field Credit. I went back to my automation. I created a User Input field. I set it to Multiple Choice. Under Save Response to a Custom Field and I do not see Loans or Credit. I hard-reloaded the page and repeated steps 7-9 and still do not see the new field or folder I created.I did not archive them. Suggestions please?

User Input Checkboxes missing - and my posts!

I’ve been trying to add checkboxes though they are not listed under user input. I can clearly see them documented in multiple places. I do not see my other posts, is someone screwing with my account?

A pergunta que não quer calar 1 milhão de usuários!

Eu tenho poucos seguidores em meu Instagram, ainda, como uma campanha como Manychat vai me ajudar a vender e ainda gostaria de um tutorial para adicionar dois perfis de instagram, estou tentando usar a sugestão do próprio Manychat, adicionando o meu perfil do Facebook onde tenho os dois Perfis do Instagram, mas não está finalizando, vou até o final e parece ok, mas volta ao que já estava, com apenas 1 perfil do Instagram, ou seja, não estou conseguindo colocar o perfil do facebook que deveria ser o correto mas iniciei com o perfil do Instagram e agora não entra o do Facebook, por favor? English Question:I have few followers on my Instagram, yet, as a campaign like Manychat will help me sell and I would still like a tutorial to add two Instagram profiles, I'm trying to use Manychat's own suggestion, adding my Facebook profile where I have the two Instagram Profiles, but it's not finishing, I go to the end and it seems ok, but it goes back to where it was, with only 1 Instagram profile,

ManyChat Messaging Feature

I found ManyChat’s messaging all in 1 inbox really cool.I was actually curious, where in the world is it being sent from?Is it sent from a location somewhere or just sent from the IG API?Like when connecting my IG account to ManyChat - where will the login country be in?I found it really interesting :)

Reconnecting ManyChat Automations After Facebook-Instagram Link Issue

Hello Everyone,I’ve been creating simple flows to connect with our business audience on Instagram using ManyChat. Recently, we accidentally unlinked our Facebook Page and Instagram account, causing all of the automations we set up in ManyChat to stop working. We've reconnected the page and Instagram account, but the automations are still not functioning. Does anyone know how to get them working again? I have already use refresh permission and it’s still not working. I really appreciate any help. Thanks so much in advance!
