Telegram Broadcasting Feature

I am trying to use Telegram Broadcasting Feature. At the moment, I only can broadcast to my subscribed users via Telegram Bot. I want to imports user phone numbers onto ManyChat and then have ManyChat convert those numbers to telegram username so I can broadcast. Is there a way to make this happen or any other way to convert phone numbers to telegram users name? Please help with this...

Automation Conditions

Hi guys! I need help with this challenge.I am trying to set up an automation with condition that is a bit different from the regular pattern and I do not know how to navigate.I am putting up a post that is a trivia, but i do not want to reveal the answer on the post. What I want instead is that for any answer or comment you provide on that post, you will automatically receive a response prompting you to check your DM to see if you got the answer right.When you get to DM, my first prompt to you would be to congratulate you for trying the question and to ask you to check if your answer (which was already provided on the post) is correct.Now, where I’m stuck is that i need the condition set to be able to check and know if the answer you had provided on the post before you came to DM was correct or not, before the remaining automations comes to play.How can I set this condition, to check if your last comment on the post that brought you to the DM was the right answer for the trivia? I do n

2 comments at a time don't work

Has anyone experienced this? I have a post where they can comment 2 different keywords and only one trigger is getting DM’d to them. Whichever key word they comment first gets sent. Even when they comment the 2nd key word on a different line it doesn’t go through. Any thoughts on how to fix this??  Thanks!

Need support - my account is broken

Long time user of Manychat, back when I had to wait to get an account (I think this was in 2017?)Anyway, I’m back to using it again and I’m running into a lot of issues. For example, it won't let me reconnect my instagram account @WhisselRealty because it said it was connected elsewhere, but I checked everywhere and I don't have another account.  Also, it says I need to update billing because I have too many contacts, but I deleted all of my contacts but it still says I have 1452/1000  What is the best way to reach out to support directly? I think I need someone to dig into my account to help figure this out!

How to skip Opening DM and send a single link

Hi there,I’m trying to determine what shifted to where a specific comment triggering a custom DM to be sent has shifted to requiring an ‘Opening DM’ where the commenter has to click yes to get the custom message. I never had this issue in the past (typically someone comments the specified word and they get my custom DM with a link). Any thoughts on how I can set up the automation to skip the Opening DM?thanks!

Why was next post automation removed??

Why would the next post automation be removed as a feature? That was the most helpful feature so I had my posts set up ahead of time that way when it went live people could start commenting the keyword and the link was sent to them. I’m so confused why that feature would be removed.

Automation Flow not working- create new facebook?

Hello everyone!Its my first month on Manychat, I created a conversation flow for Instagram, where a Post or Reel comment leads to a DM automation. The conversation starts in the DM, but the flow stops in the middle and my audience does not receive a link. The automated response in the comments works thoough (Like: hey, got your message, I’ll send you a DM with the link).I have done ALL THE STEPS explained in by manychat support PLUS info tutorials shared here.refresh permission ✅business integration shows: manychat ✅manychat is shows under white listed search bar etc etc and all the other things you recommend ✅so my question to you guys is… should I create a NEW facebook account and facebook page, to connect to my instagram? because it seems something is off with the old facebook account (that i’ve had since 2007 and support has stopped replying because they probably don’t have a clue how to help me.I really want my manychat automation to work before black friday salesThanksAnike

Hi there, I need to write a script that will send the user's data (name, email, in short the data he filled in) when he clicks on the start button, so that this data is transferred to me in manychat and that his data in manychat is updated, but unfortunately I did not find a solution on the Internet (maybe someone can suggest a solution?

Why can't I add more links

Every morning I post on Instagram and put 3 links on many chats that get sent to followers. I was not able to do so this morning. My set up looks completely different. What happened. Followers are asking for links to my post, but only sending them 1 of the 3 links. What happened to the add button for more links

Issues with non followers receiving automated DM

Have an automation in place to send 1 of 2 DM’s to people that comment on a post. One message includes a button with a link to an external site and works just fine. The second option is a message with quick reply options. It seems that accounts that don’t already follow us don’t receive this message. It gives them a message notification, and while on our end it looks like our message was sent, they have an empty DM.  Not sure if this is an issue with the automation, their Instagram DM limitations, or Instagram in general. Has anyone else had this issue or found a solution?

Chatbot is not going off

Hi, we have a chatbot that is supposed to start a DM based on a word trigger in Instagram DMs, but it’s not working. When we use the comment-to-DM feature, it works partially, but only for the first two sentences.When I checked the Facebook Business settings, I noticed that the primary receiver protocol for ManyChat isn’t listed there. I’ve already refreshed the connection multiple times, but it’s still not functioning properly.It’s odd that the comment-to-DM feature works partially, but the word-to-DM trigger doesn’t work at all—it doesn’t load. Do you have any idea what could be causing this?

I want to have 5 total Team Members, how much would that cost?

I want to upgrade my Manychat so I can use the auto-assign conversations, use whatsapp on the app, and get all the sales persons invited. I wanna know if that would cost $15 or more since it’s not clear on the pricing page.
