Connecting Facebook to Manychat pro

I pay for the Manychat pro and use it on my IG daily, but can’t connect it to my FB business page (it just connects to a backup business page I have).When I do go into the page I have connected to manychat, it says I need to have pro for Facebook as well. Is this right? Or should my pro account work on my IG and my facebook already?

The auto-reply function has been down for three days now

I'm experiencing the same issue. The auto-reply function has been down for three days now, and I've been in continuous communication with the support team. They keep asking me to perform repetitive checks, which I've done multiple times, including reconnecting everything. I'm starting to feel that spending money on this service is not worth it, especially since the subscription model requires us to pay even when the system is down. I'm not sure whether I should cancel the subscription and switch to a different system. Are you considering stopping your subscription?

Automations suddenly stopped working

Hey all! So a day or so ago ALL my automations stopped working. I did recently upgrade from free to pro… and I thought maybe something went wrong there. But I hadn’t changed any settings. I also deleted my connected Facebook page and set up a new one because someone else had claimed it! But that was after automations stopped. I have tried to refresh permissions, delete them and start again… nothing 🥲Any ideas? Thank you!

Hello guys.Whenever I tried to make page, it shows continuously error pop-up.I did linked up Facebook & Instagram. How can I do…?

Re-triggering Automation for Missed Instagram Messages After Payment Failure

Hi everyone,My payment failed, and as a result, my account was downgraded from a paid account to a free account. Consequently, my automations were not sent on Instagram. It took me 2-3 days to notice and fix my payment method, and now my account is back to being a paid account.During those 2-3 days, many people commented on my posts but did not receive private messages in return. Is there a way to re-trigger the automation for those who didn't receive messages?Thanks in advance for your help!

DM restrictions

Hi! We have had issues in the past with account restrictions when we DM more than 100 people the same DM. Will this be an issue with Manychat if we are planning on using the tool that DM’s people who comment something on our post?

Instagram DM List doesn't work

How can I understand that my ManyChat account supports Instagram DM Lists? I have this option while i am creating Automaation, but it doesn’t work after launch – there are no message for subscribing.

Hey Many Chat Fam! So I'm not sure what I did, but I've been trying to connect my instagram and it keeps saying that a request was sent and that I need to contact the owner of the many chat account to gain access. “Your request has been sent. Please ask owner of Manychat account with this page to approve your request”I’ve tried going into my Facebook account but have no idea how to approve this request. I’ve tried everything at this point. If anyone knows how to resolve this issue, I’d be so grateful!

I don't want to use the chatbot.

I don’t want Manycht to read my Instagram messages and to reply : “we usually reply within one day”, I only use the comments automation tool. I don’t need the chatbot. Is there anyway to disable it from replying to people in the messages?

New OpenAI ThreadID format causing some issues

Hi Guys!I’m creating a chatbot automation using Manychat - Make - ChatGPT and recently I realized that the ThreadID requested by my Manychat automation is coming in a different format then it came before. This is causing a huge problem for me because when I send this new formatted ThreadID alongside with a user question to ChatGPT, using Make.com the OpenAi itself doesn’t recognize it as a valid ThreadID.I’ll share with you some screenshots os my Manychat request and would like you to check if I’m doing something wrong.Thanks everyone in advance!
