Recently, I create the auto-link, it shows live but when I test it and set it “please the comment we will sent the link to you.”> “Set me the link”, the ManyChat can’t reply on the comment but also DMs…

Is there anyone knows how to solve it?

Hi ​@rodrigo_silvano Yes, I did … and I just check with your link and it seems we already turn on all the permissions already.

Hi ​@Ela0805 
I’m sorry to hear you’re experiencing issues with your IG Comment Trigger — I know how frustrating this can be.

While support gets back to you, as ​@rodrigo_silvano mentioned here are a few things I’d recommend double-checking:

  1. Instagram permissions
    You already mentioned you refreshed permissions, which is usually a quick fix, but since it didn’t work in your case, we can rule that out for now.
  2. Follow the official IG automation troubleshooting guide
    This step-by-step guide covers several edge cases that can cause comment automations to stop firing and is very helpful for diagnosing issues like this:

  3. Check for platform-wide issues
    Sometimes this is related to a temporary issue on Instagram or ManyChat’s side. You can check the current system status here:
    https://status.manychat.com/
  4. One-time trigger behavior
    Just as a reminder, Instagram comment automations only trigger once per user per post. If the same user commented again, the automation would not fire a second time.

Hopefully one of these points helps you pinpoint the issue while waiting for support.

Cheers,
