I’ve setup my account and run through every single AI support option to help. No automations are working no matter how simple. I tried to submit a ticket for support through the AI chat on the essentials plan but it says I can’t contact support through it and it links to an article that says it is the only way to connect with support. Help.

Hi ​@ashleyjolumpkin 

If the AI chat isn't letting you open a ticket, you can try submitting one directly with this form:https://help.manychat.com/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket_form_id=11756694468892

Also, if you've been testing with your own account, keep in mind that depending on the trigger (for example, commenting on a post), the automation won't fire again for the same person. I'd try testing from a different Instagram account and see if it works.

In the meantime, let us know which channel are you using (Instagram, Messenger, WhatsApp) and what kind of trigger are you testing.

Cheers!
