I’m looking to figure out the following flow potentially - has anyone does this?

 

Scrape a hashtag for hairstylist, barber, hairdresser - etc and then automate a DM from Manychat  for them with a resource (this is a lead gen tatic). 

 

Wasn’t sure if an action has to be completed on their part before ManyChat can fire out a response/DM.

You can’t start conversations with new contacts from Manychat.

The only way to do this is by using non-authorized apps - which will put your account in danger.
