Hey everyone!

I’m struggling to set up an auto-reply to comments via DM. I’ve tried a couple of times and asked different friends to test it, but it’s not triggering the flow I created.

Has anyone run into this before or know what I might be missing?

Hey, ​@agape 

I’m sorry to hear that 😕

Did you check your account’s permissions? 

If you don’t, please check this help article with the step-by-step guide: https://help.manychat.com/hc/en-us/articles/14281308423452-Instagram-automation-troubleshooting

Let me know if this worked 🙂

Hi! I followed all of these steps and my DM to comment automation still isn’t working. Not sure what happened as I have had no problems until today.

Hey ​@Jbtravelswell

Yes, I did! I ended up starting a chat with support because I did all of the things they reccomended and nothing worked. Hopefully someone will get back to me soon. Thank you!
