Can you please help me with this, I made a flow with an external request from Make, sometimes get the answer messages in my phone sometimes not.

 

For example, if i ask to Gemini “what day is today” it answer correctly but if i ask for another situation that need more characters answer correctly in the response tab inside the configuration of the external request, but this messages not is display in my WhatsApp, it displays the last message.

Hey, ​@Albert 

That seems a logical problem within your flow.
Can you share how did you build it and be able to help you further?

Hi, this usually happens because the response is returned in Make, but Manychat/WhatsApp is not using or displaying it properly.

Try these quick fixes:

  • Save the Make response into a Custom Field first, then send that field in the next message

  • Add a 1–2 second delay after the External Request

  • Make sure Make returns plain text only

  • Check that you are mapping the correct response field, not an old one

  • If the reply is long, try sending a shorter cleaned version because WhatsApp may not display long/formatted text properly

If short replies work but long ones do not, the issue is most likely response length/formatting.
