Issues with capturing responses in Custom Fields

Hi!!,I am experiencing issues when trying to capture and store response data in Custom Fields within an automated flow. Below, I provide detailed context to help you better understand the situation:Context Webhook Integration: I have configured an external request (Webhook) that makes a POST call to a custom URL. This URL returns a JSON with an array of available time slots (franjas libres in Spanish) for scheduling appointments. Response JSON: The structure of the response I receive from the Webhook is as follows: { "franjas_libres": [ "Viernes 30 de Agosto de 2024, 01:00 PM", "Viernes 30 de Agosto de 2024, 01:30 PM", "Viernes 30 de Agosto de 2024, 03:00 PM", "Viernes 30 de Agosto de 2024, 03:30 PM", "Viernes 30 de Agosto de 2024, 04:00 PM", "Viernes 30 de Agosto de 2024, 04:30 PM", "Viernes 30 de Agosto de 2024, 05:00 PM", "Sabado 31 de Agosto de 2024, 12:00 PM", "Lunes 02 de Septiembre de 2024, 08:00 AM", "Lunes 02 de Septiembre de 2024, 08:30 AM" ]

What automations are live?

Hello, We had a consulting company create automations for our church using ManyChat about three years ago. The company, unfortunately, raised the rates to a point, we couldn’t continue with their support.I would like to see what automations are live and then turn off everything. I will then begin to turn things on as I learn they do and how they function.I can see where the automations were created. I see things in messenger that I don’t want. For example, some folks just say hello to us or join us for an online service, then they end up with every service going to their messenger inbox. If they didn’t ask for that, that is spam. How do I see what automations are currently live?

Issue with "Unknown Contact" Display and Flow Stopping After Button Click

Hello,I'm experiencing an issue where several of my contacts are displayed as "Unknown Contact" in my ManyChat account, even though they are marked as "Subscribed" and new in my contact list. Additionally, my flow stops unexpectedly after users click a button, even though the flow should continue. This occurs despite the fact that my integrations and settings have been checked and appear to be correctly configured.You can see in the image that people don’t receive the last message. Also they don’t receive the next message in the sequence. Also they are not saved as new contacts. Despite these efforts, I am still seeing multiple entries as "Unknown Contact," and my flow stops at the button click, preventing further engagement. Could you please advise on any additional steps I could take to resolve this, or let me know if this might be a bug?Thank you for your assistance.Best regards,Krista

Double message sending

Hello I have hypothetical question. If someone will comment the same word 2 times let say someone comments ,,Amen,, in my reel let's say and then he reply to my story or write another amen in my other reel will he get as many automatic messages from me as much he sends this word? If yes can i change it so the person will only get 1 this message or just limit a time space between these messages?

How Do We Contact ManyChat???

It amazes me that a company known for chatbots does not have a chat integration built into their platform. I have a question that I would like to talk to an actual human being about, but I can’t find a way to do that. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Is there a way to setup two-way email communication (not marketing) in ManyChat??

We’d like to start using ManyChat to handle customer support emails in addition to the Messenger and Social Media inbox. Is there currently a way to do this?

Problema con Conversaciones para romper el hielo

Hola a todos! Tengo una duda, lo que ocurre es que he detectado que la opción de Manychat llamada “Conversaciones para romper el hielo” sólo está disponible en dispositivos Android, en iOS no funciona correctamente, ya que sí salen las opciones, pero no deja seleccionarlas, por el contrario en Android si funcionan correctamente ejecutando su respectiva automatización.No se si es que tengo algo mal configurado en mi cuenta, o es algo de políticas, ya que creo recordar que en iOS si me funcionaba al principio.Gracias por leer, espero sus comentarios 🤗
