Do Facebook comments trigger IG ManyChat automations if only Instagram is connected?

I only have my Instagram account connected to ManyChat. My Facebook Page is linked to Instagram on Meta, so my IG posts are automatically cross-posted to Facebook.

If someone comments on the Facebook version of a video that was originally posted on Instagram, will that comment trigger my Instagram comment automation in ManyChat, or does the automation only work for comments made directly on Instagram?

I want to confirm if linking FB to IG (but not to ManyChat) is enough, or if Facebook comments are ignored entirely.

Thanks.

Hi, ​@accy!

 

Short answer = No.

Even if you “duplicate” your Instagram posts to Facebook, you need to connect your Facebook page to Manychat and duplicate your automations to the Facebook Channel.
