General Q&A

I need help creating and installing the events to use with the ManyChat pixel.  I do not have the expertise, and have had an incredibly hard time finding someone to assist me with this.  i have found the instructions to be too vague and general for someone with zero coding knowledge.

We are trying to set up an automatic DM trigger for some common keywords that get commented on our content often. Does anyone know if there is a way to just send the automatic message the first time someone comments that word and not every time they comment the keyword? Thanks!

I set up the automation but the links are not being sent out. Is there something im missing

Hello, everyone.We already have a WhatsApp line in the company and we would like to add it as a channel to Manychat.Currently, we are using another platform where we receive WhatsApp queries.It does not allow us to add the existing line and only gives us the option to add the new line.If we select “Use my own number” it takes me to Meta. I advance a little with the configuration and when I get here the only option available is to create an account, when we already have one.Thanks for the help.

Is it possible to create a DM follow up message? When I send a DM on instragram it would be nice if manychat could follow up 2 days after if the user doesnt reply. Is this possible?

Hi there,Overview of the SetupI use a main automation that includes a helper automation called activateChaseUserEmailAddress Automation. The flow is as follows: 1. User comments on my post2. activateChaseUserEmailAddress Automation: This helper automation collects the user’s email address.3. Send Resource Automation: After the email is collected, this automation sends the requested resource to the user. Detailed Explanation 1. User comments on my post: The trigger for the entire process.2. activateChaseUserEmailAddress Automation: This automation is called within the main automation to collect the user’s email address. The main automation makes a request to this helper automation and waits for it to complete.3. Send Resource Automation: Once the activateChaseUserEmailAddress Automation is finished, the main automation proceeds to execute the Send Resource Automation, which sends the resource to the user. The Issue • Expected Behaviour: When a user enters their email address immediately

Some automations are being activated in my direct message without the user sending the trigger. In the middle of the conversation mediated by the social seller, an automation is suddenly sent, out of context. Is this a Manychat configuration or an Instagram error?This automation indicated by the arrow emoji that was sent suddenly. 

Buenos días a todos. Tenemos ya una línea de WhatsApp en la empresa y nos gustaría añadirla como canal a Manychat. Actualmente, estamos utilizando otra plataforma donde recibimos las consultas de WhatsApp. No nos permite agregar la línea existente y nos da únicamente la opción de agregar la nueva línea. Si seleccionamos “Use my own number” me lleva a Meta. Avanzo un poco con la configuración y al llegar aquí la única opción disponible es crear una cuenta, cuando ya nosotros tenemos. Gracias por la ayuda. 

Hello, I am new to ManyChat and need assistance. I attempted to link my WhatsApp to the platform to automate responses and manage messages from here. I had to deactivate my number on WhatsApp because ManyChat was not accepting it, indicating that it already had an account. After deactivating it on WhatsApp, I was able to link it to ManyChat, but I couldn't respond to any messages. I panicked and tried to deactivate it on ManyChat, but I CAN'T. Now, not only can I not see incoming messages or respond, but I also can't return my number to WhatsApp. It doesn't work! It's a complete disaster.  Please Help me. Whatsapp is the first way of contact my clients.

Hi there, Is there any possibilities to delete the contacts through automation in pro plan? Thanks in advanceRamesh

DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW CHATBOT CAN RECOGNIZE AN AUDIO USER INPUT, I AM USING CHATGPT ALONG WITH MANYCHAT TO MAKE A BOT, BUT WHEN I RECEIVE AN AUDIO I WOULD LIKE TO PAUSE THE INTERACTION SINCE CHATGPT IS NOT ABLE TO INTERPRET AUDIO

After a love-hate relationship with URLGenius, we’re looking for deeplinking alternatives to open Manychat Ref URLs (on both Messenger and Instagram, if possible) directly on the Messenger and/or Instagram apps. What platforms would you recommend? How have you been redirecting contacts from a mobile browser or email platform without getting them to type their email and password to log in?

Hello,I am new here and planning to use Manychat from tomorrow on for my creator account on IG. About a month ago I created my free account with Manychat but am currently having neither keywords defined nor an automation set up yet. I just logged in and it shows me that I have 14 contacts already without even having used Manychat once...I don't get it. My private account is one of these contacts, and I am 100% sure I did not subscribe to my Manychat account or test a keyword or something as I did not even have set a keyword yet.How can that be that there are random IG accounts (some of them spam accounts, but not all) added to my contacts & community without having interacted with any of my posts (as my IG account is new and I will only be starting to post from tomorrow on)? As I am planning to go for a paid account with Manychat but as the price increases with increasing contacts, I want to make sure that I only pay for contacts who actually entered my keywords I will set and not

How many FB & IG Accounts can I add to one Manychat account please?
