What is the step-by-step flow in a scenario on make.com that answers a text message as a WhatsApp Business chatbot connected by the WhatsApp Business API generated by Manychat and adds text responses using an AI from ChatGPT? 

Hi there, I’ve set up an Instagram automation that triggers when someone uses the word “etch.” The automation sends them a message with a button linking to a course purchase page.Lately, we’ve noticed that people who comment with the word “technique” are also triggering this automation, even though “technique” is not listed as one of the trigger keywords. I’ve attached screenshots for reference.We’ve had some people who are very confused because they’re a sent link to purchase a course that is not related to the IG post they commented on.Has anyone experienced something similar or know why this might be happening? Would really appreciate any help—thanks in advance! Here is a test I did, it prompted the same automation:

Hi,I'm building a WhatsApp flow and I need to trigger a scenario in Make every time a user sends a message — even if it's during the 30-minute automation cooldown.Is there any way to bypass this cooldown? I simply want to receive a notification every time a user sends a message, regardless of whether the cooldown is active or not.Thanks for your help!

I can't solve the following error in any way, I already tried updating permissions, reducing the messages even though it worked perfectly before.-The error is that my followers from PC and IOS have a very bad visual appearance of the automation (not from phone), I leave some examples in the images. Could someone recommend me a solution?   

Hi everyone!For my Messenger automation, I wanted to completely disable the user’s ability to type messages and force interactions only through Quick Replies. Thanks to the Keyboard Input setting in ManyChat, I was able to hide the keyboard entirely — which is great!However, I still need the user to enter their name at the beginning of the flow. So ideally, I'd like to reactivate the keyboard just for that specific step, and keep it disabled the rest of the time.What I’m doing currently: I disabled Keyboard Input globally (Messenger settings) I use Quick Replies for most of the conversation For name input, I created a User Input block with Text type and left the “Only allow quick replies” option unchecked My question:Is there a cleaner or more flexible way to allow text input only at certain steps while keeping the keyboard hidden elsewhere?

Hey everyone,1. We would like to create a user profile (new Contact) with custom field values when a user moves from our website to a chatbot. We plan to pass the custom field values through the URL parameters to our chatbot. Is this possible? If so, could you please guide us on how to implement it?2. Each user will have unique values. We want to include them in the URL parameters that the bot shares in the chat. Is this possible?

im setting an automation for whatsapp, the im sending messages with buttons, then.. i expect susbscriber to choose one of the buttons, and after the message ive set a smart delay waiting for the answer. thing is.. after the smart delay started even if the susbscriber chooses one of the buttons the smart delay wont stop and it will continue the flow. Is there a way i can send a message with buttons and set a waiting time for the susbscriber to chose one of the buttons, if not then continue the flow?

So I just registered at ManyChat, but I have multiple Instagram profiles under the same Instagram account, but I cannot switch profiles within this account to link with ManyChat?For example, I need to use @performancerx dot nl Instagram profile for ManyChat, but instead it automatically links my @bonbongoods_ Instagram profile, because it's linked to the same Instagram account.How to fix? Else I won't be able to use ManyChat which would be a shame. I'm not gonna create a new account and start over from scratch.Kind regards,Jurre

Hi,It’s so difficult to get a WhatsApp Business API account even though I own the business. I’m trying to find another way, and Manychat seems to be one of it. Can I subscribe through Manychat and thus bypassing Meta’s process of getting the WhatsApp Business API approved?Secondly, when my live agents interact with the users, I read that they must do it on manychat UI, because if they talk directly in the WhatsApp chat, the automation will not stop. If this is true, can we whitelabel the chat? I do not want my clients to know that I’m using manychat. Hope someone can help, thank you.

Hi there, I have admin role under a Manychat account but I can’t see the dashboard. Any reason why that is?

Boa noite. Até hoje de manhã estava funcionando normalmente, porém agora não consigo criar novos fluxos, aparecendo a mensagem abaixo, embora esteja com a rede funcionando normalmente.

 what are you waiting for to improve the manychat instagram features from the computer (web), it is very limited and I am missing opportunities for those who interact from those devices whether they are windows or ios.

I'm creating a flow on ManyChat where I ask customers questions to collect information and then recommend products that suit them. However, when I preview it on Messenger, it sends a series of questions all at once without waiting for the customer's response. How can I ask customers one question at a time, wait for their response, and then move on to the next question after collecting the information?

Hi all,Greetings,I am new at many chats. I successfully automated my Instagram. But could not do for my FB page. Anyone please guide.

Hi!  I have been using automation to send links to my Instagram and Facebook followers for many months now and love it.  In the post I tell them to comment a specific word and if they do then the automation sends them the link to purchase.  It has been working perfectly but I have recently come upon a new article from Meta (https://www.facebook.com/business/help/259911614709806) that sounds like they are now saying it is “comment baiting”.  Comment baiting: Asking people to comment with specific answers (words, numbers, phrases or emojis). My question is, does this apply to our automated messages and will this change things for this feature moving forward?  I’m not really baiting them it’s just an easy way for them to get the link right to their inbox automatically if they want it. I don’t want to use the
