Accidentally gave wrong keyword for auto-dm link, over 200 commenters didn't receive DM; is it possible to fix this?

I made a post for my company telling people about a live debate coming up on Sunday. I told people to comment “DEBATE” to get a link in their DMs to the livestream. But then while setting up the automation I brainfarted and made the keyword “WATCH” instead. I fixed the keyword when I noticed the mistake several hours later, but over 200 people commented the incorrect keyword before I noticed. None of them got a DM. Is there any way I can get the link to all those people’s DMs without manually going through all 200+ of them and sending the same DM over and over?

Tag Failed migration CUF to SUF

HELP!!! Has anyone had this problem? On May 15th, this tag Failed migration CUF to SUF 15/05/2025 12:08 was automatically added by the system to some chats, but I don’t know what it means. Since that date, I’ve been facing some issues: according to the filters in ManyChat, I’ve been receiving the usual number of chats (around 800), but the agents are receiving far fewer (only 20–30 per day). I’ve checked the Unassigned and Closed folders for the missing chats, but they’re not there. Where else could those chats be?

Running Javascript within Manychat

Dear ManyChat Support Team,I hope you're doing well.I would like to ask if ManyChat currently offers a built-in option to add an action that allows us to run JavaScript code directly within a flow. If not, is the recommended approach to use an HTTP request to call an external service in order to perform custom logic or data manipulation?I’m currently on the Pro plan and looking for the most efficient way to handle dynamic content and logic inside ManyChat.Looking forward to your guidance.Best regards,Faisal Rathor

Unable to use DM-links Automation on Free Plan

Hello!Manychat seems to be prompting me to upgrade to a Pro Plan (I’m currently on the free plan) in order to use DM-Link automation. I have 4 DM link automations set up right now for 4 of my posts, however, to add a 5th, it’s asking me to upgrade to Pro. I was under the impression this was available on the free plan (correct me if I’m wrong). And as far as I’m aware, I haven’t reached the contacts threshold or enabled in any other pro features to trigger it.It’s all a bit confusing, so I’d love if anyone can give some insight into what it could be. Thank you!

Not All Tagged Users Are Receiving Broadcasts

I’m trying to send broadcasts out to different tags using the target audience feature. It has previously worked, and now it is not sending to some of the users in the tag. For example, if 100 users are in a tag only 5 users get sent the broadcast. Any ideas why this would be happening?

automating new flow creation

Hi all—hoping someone here has tackled something similar or can steer me in the right direction. I’m trying to build an automated reposting and messaging agent for my wife’s affiliate videos using Make, Manychat, and a few AI tools.Here’s the setup: My wife creates ~5 TikTok videos per day, each promoting one product from the beauty/health space. Each TikTok video includes a link to the TikTok Shop product.  We have begun cross-posting to Instagram reels and want to set up a comment-to-DM link automation for these videos, to route the commentors to the TikTok shop product affiliate link Here is the problem:She has thousands of videos, reviewing hundreds of products (meaning hundreds of affiliate links).  Each video comment has a unique codeword and affiliate link Setting up a new automation for each of these manually would take yearsThe goal:I have an Airtable sheet that lists each Instagram Post ID, Product Name, Keyword, and cooresponding Affiliate link.  For example, when someon

Problem with subscribers and downgrade plan

Hello, namaste ♥I'm having an issue with Manychat,The problem is: I was being charged $125 because I had nearly 20,000 subscribers.However, those subscribers are not necessary for me, so I deleted most of them.Now I have only about 6,000 subscribers, and I’m unable to delete any more — I need help with that. The last 6000 subs doesnt appear on the list anymore.Another issue is that I can’t downgrade my plan, so I had to cancel it entirely.Now I feel stuck, because I can’t reach support and I don’t know what else to do.Can you please help me solve this situation?Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to get in touch with anyone from the team or support.Thank you so much!

Mensajes desde ManyChat no llegan al cliente (Coexistencia WhatsApp BETA)

Hola, a todos!!Tengo integrado mi número de WhatsApp Business con ManyChat utilizando la modalidad Coexistencia (BETA). Mi objetivo es poder ver y responder los mensajes tanto desde la app de WhatsApp Business como desde ManyChat.Actualmente, el sistema funciona a medias:✅ Puedo recibir mensajes en ambas plataformas (app y ManyChat).✅ Los flujos de automatización se activan correctamente al recibir un mensaje.🚫 Sin embargo, los mensajes enviados desde ManyChat no se reflejan en la app de WhatsApp Business, ni los ve la persona que inició la conversación. Es decir: El flujo se activa (ver imagen adjunta), pero los mensajes automatizados no llegan al cliente. Tampoco puedo enviar mensajes manuales desde el panel de live chat en ManyChat. Solo el mensaje original enviado desde la app aparece correctamente (marcado en azul en la imagen), pero los mensajes enviados desde ManyChat (marcados en rojo) no llegan al cliente ni quedan registrados en la app. ¿Podrían ayudarme a entender qué e

Facebook account disabled

My facebook account was disabled therefore I can’t log into many chat any longer. I did make my daughter admin of my page before it was disabled. I created a many chat account under her page and it did recognize my page but won’t let me manage it from her account unless I give her permission from my manychat account which I can’t log into. how do I resolve this?

🔧 [HELP] How to filter by seconds after a Smart Delay?

 Hey everyone! 👋🏼I’m building a flow where I need to make sure the bot was the last one to send a message and that the user hasn’t replied since.Here’s what I’m trying to do: I add a Smart Delay of 30 seconds after sending a message. After that, I want to check if the last user interaction happened more than 30 seconds ago (to confirm they didn’t reply and that it’s safe to continue). Ideally, I would use a condition like: 👉 “Last Interaction on Instagram more than 30 seconds ago” 🚫 The problem: In the condition settings, I can only compare using minutes — the smallest option is 1 minute. So I can’t check for interactions in the 30-second range.🧠 Has anyone found a workaround for this? Any creative way to check interaction time with more granularity? Can this be done with a custom field + API or HTTP request? Or is this a hard platform limitation that requires redesigning the logic? Would really appreciate any ideas or experiences — thank you in advance! 🙌🏼
