When using a custom vairable to hold a simple string it fails to be displayed in a message or be picked up when sending it a a field to Aweber as part of a signup process via a webhook to Make. As can seen, the variable MainlyAnswer is set to A, B or C and passed to the SendMessage (and on to the webkook). When running in preview the message shows the internal name {{cuf_12545289}} not its value. This is also displayed when using the variable in the webhook json field. How can I get the variable content to display?Thanks Tim 

My name is Leon and I live in Togo, West Africa. For the last 48 hours, I've been having problems adding my Tiktok account to Manychat. Every time I try, I get the following message: [This TikTok account doesn’t support connection to Manychat] I've followed the troubleshooting guide and followed all the instructions: have a TikTok Business account and disable automatic messages. Thank you for your help!

Hello everyone,I was reading in the Community post. Are Instagram DM Lists completely gone?I have a 2 steps flow. First step is about getting a product, e.g. an ebook. Second step is about providing feedback. The second step should automatically trigger after 7-10 days. Did I get it right that this is no longer allowed? Do I have to contact the customer personally in chat and ask to trigger the feedback flow, e.g. with a keyword? 

what this happen in first time that the contact answers me? There are two bottom but they do not appear.

Hello, the "If Message Does Not Contain" keyword filter is not working. It does not save or update when I use this trigger.  Is anyone else experiencing this? I badly need this for my automation because it is too hard to predict all the keywords for some of my automations.  Am I missing something?  Any advise would be much appreciated.

when i signed up for manychat, i selected a USA phone number since my country (singapore) was not available. on the sign up page it said i can change my number later on after sign up, however i do not see this option in the settings?

Hi, I want to integrate chatgpt with manychat. Is it necessary to purchase the PRO version for $15 or can I integrate and use chatgpt in the free version?

I've launched an ad campaign and the ads optimization settings are going well. Then, after a few days, nothing works anymore. I look at the trigger Instagram ads is deactivated and doesn't appear at all. I go to redo the “Ads optimization” settings, then when I reconnect a “messaging” data source, the instagram account selection is no longer available because it's apparently ineligible. Thanks in advance for your help.

I have been using Manychat for a few days and akll of a sudden my public replies arent working??

Hola, estoy teniendo varios problemas con el funcionamiento del bot en WhatsApp. Cuando los clientes escriben cosas como “quiero esta” acompañado de una imagen, o hacen preguntas fuera del flujo como “método de pago” o “qué sabores tienen”, el bot no responde correctamente y muchas veces reinicia el flujo con el mensaje de bienvenida. También he configurado AI Steps y palabras clave, pero en algunos casos no se activan o el bot alucina respuestas. Necesito ayuda para entender si es un tema de configuración o una limitación de la plataforma, porque esto está afectando la experiencia del cliente. Gracias de antemano.

Hello, is there an integration with Whatsapp, when in automation you add a delay, let's say 3 seconds, for the user to see that "typing" functionality?I believe this already exists in the integration with the messenger.Thanks

Help Needed: Resetting Weekly Contest Flow in ManyChat (Random Number Draw)I run a weekly contest drawing every Friday at 8PM, and entries close at 8:30PM. After the drawing ends, I want to begin collecting new entries for the next week’s drawing immediately.Each week, up to 100 contestants can enter, and each person is assigned a random number from 1–100.I'm currently using a Google Sheet to log contestant data with the following columns: Serial Number Random Number User-ID User-Name Mobile-ID I already know how to update the Google Sheet to prepare it for the next week’s entries. However, I need help figuring out what other parts of the ManyChat flow or formulas need to be updated to reset the system and start collecting fre

This isn’t so much of a question as it is an official complaint.  I understand ManyChat had to change a few things to comply with platform rules like having to send an intro message before sending the link in DM’s, etc.  But today, I launched a product and was devastated by the absolute failure this site.  I refreshed my permissions when I saw new features to ensure efficiency.  But the toggles didn’t work so I couldn’t select “Reply to DM’s” despite refreshing a million times.  There were so many glitches, and the format is completely different.  By the time I finally got an automation up and running, I tested it on a separate account and the link didn’t work.  I canceled the automation, refreshed permissions, and redid everything only for the automation to not work at all.  I have had multiple issues with ManyChat and now I am officially saying goodbye after today.  StanStore has a reply to DM automation that I will explore.  I just need something super simple that W

Hello community, I have two questions about smart delay1.I set up an automation to notify my Instagram followers about a product promotion since we cannot use broadcasting in Instagram to all followers who used to leave a message.I'm not sure if this will work as expected. The Smart Delay is set to send them the promotional link 10 hours after their first interaction with me (=clicking the Show Me the Deal button), and they’re supposed to receive it between 9:00 AM and 10:00 PM in their time zone, right?2.An Instagram creator sent me a DM on March 29 right after I left a comment on her post. I only clicked on the button yesterday, but I still received an automated reply.That should have been outside the 24-hour messaging window, so I'm not sure why the auto-reply still worked. Do you know why this

I don’t want my clients to be bothered by another message that is not relevant to them at all. Please tell me why messages like this are happening!

The last 5 days my opt in to message lists on messenger has broken. No-one has ‘opted in’. When looking at the facebook inbox side of things, people are clicking the button which sends the ‘get updates’ message from their end. But when looking at the manychat logs, this ‘get updates’ message does not appear, and none of my inquirers over the past 5 days have opted in. I have attacghed screenshots showing how this conversation looks on both the facebook and manychat side of thigns. This is not an isolated things and is effecting everyone who messages my page.This has been happening on my collegues accounts as well. Is anyone else encountering this problem or know of a fix? 

Hi ManyChat,I'm interested in automating the process of mailing my guides to customers after successful payments through Razorpay. While I understand ManyChat doesn't directly integrate with Razorpay for this purpose, I've been reading about using workflow automation platforms like Make.com.Could you provide any guidance or resources on how I can set up this integration using ManyChat and Make.com?Specifically, I'd like to:Trigger a workflow in Make.com when a payment is successful in Razorpay. Use the customer information captured in Razorpay to send an email with a download link for the purchased guide.Any insights or pointers you can offer would be greatly appreciated.Thanks,Aditya UjjainFounder, Hustlers League
