FB ads that require a live link be sent to prospect...HELP!

Is it possible to have the bot engage with a prospect through a FB ad, but also attach a real time link once the prospect responds? I’m a real estate agent and want to place ads on FB that require the prospect to message me “get list” and then the bot sends them a list of homes that match the FB ads criteria.

ManyChat Integration with n8n

Hey everyone, I'm using n8n instead of Make to send leads from a form directly to ManyChat. However, I'm facing an issue: the process fails if the user already exists in ManyChat. Could someone with experience in n8n help me figure this out?

Comments not showing on my Instagram post

When someone comments on my IG post, I can’t see the comment and the automation doesn’t trigger. I’ve tried commenting from my burner account: it looks like only the person who made the comment can see it but no one else. This only happens on some posts with automation and when the comment contains the automation keyword (other comments are posted).It seems like IG flags any word that I’ve included in my CTA as spam and doesn’t show the comment for some reason. I barely get 5 comments on a post so I don’t think the problem is because of volume, I assume it’s a problem on the IG side because the automation doesn’t trigger at all.I am able to see the comments in Meta Business Suite. I created a report for IG support.Has anyone faced this and is there a fix?

ManyChat Automation Not Triggering After User Creation via Make

Hello everyone,I’m setting up an automation using Make and ManyChat, following this flow:A user fills out a form on a landing page. The form automatically populates a new row in a Google Sheets spreadsheet. Make has a “Watch New Rows” trigger, which creates a new user in ManyChat using some information from the spreadsheet. From there, we move to ManyChat, where I have an automation triggered by “new user added.” This automation is supposed to send a message (authorized template) directly to the user, starting the conversation.It seems the Make part is working fine, as the new user is successfully created in ManyChat. However, the automation does not trigger, and we are unable to send the message to the user.Any idea what might be going wrong?Screenshot from Make: Screenshot from ManyChat: Thanks in advance for your help!

Blacklist/Globally Suppress by Email Address (API)

Hi There,Am helping a client automate their data flow with ManyChat. They have run into issues with unsubscribed/litigator emails in other platforms and want to ensure that we can sync their list of known litigators and unsubscribed emails with their ManyChat platform.Is there a global suppression/blacklist feature in ManyChat? And if so, is there a way to automatically update this list via API or in another automated way? I am not familiar with the ManyChat platform/interface, so any insight on this would be appreciated.

Please do not remove the Russian language

You have a really great platform, but you decided to remove the Russian language. This is the advantage because of which I chose your platform among others. If the decision to remove the Russian language is related to Russia's aggression against Ukraine, then I am against the war, I am very sorry, I do not support Russia's actions and I do not live in Russia. But my native language is Russian and it is more convenient and much faster for me to work with services that have Russian language. My clients are mostly Russian and Turkish speaking. I like your platform very much, I would not want to switch to another service. And I am sure that I am not the only one. Many people of different nationalities speak Russian (Ukrainians, Kazakhs, Moldovans, Belarusians, Tatars, Chechens, Bashkirs, Uzbeks and many others). Please do not remove the Russian language.

Auto-message flow is too "relaxed"

So I’ve set a simple automation that is supposed to do the following: If a follower indicates that they have never visited a restaurant, then I want Manychat to send a canned message and a link to the menu.Right now, I have the current flow setup:Identify if the person is a follower Identifying the intent (using ManyChat of the follower) of the follower’s message If the message indicates that the follower has never been to the restaurant, then the flow will see that the follower has never been to the restaurant Sending a DM response to the follower, telling them to visit, and sharing a link to the menu The problem:I have multiple examples where the follower has indicated that they have been to the restaurant before, or want to do something different like place an order. When this happens, the flow sends them the automation, which should not happen. What am i doing wrong?

Best practices to avoid engagement baiting on Facebook?

With Meta cracking down on engagement baiting on Facebook, what are some of the best practices to optimally utilize ManyChat? I had to change my ManyChat strategy on Facebook after being flagged for engagement baiting a few months back. I’m running a promo this week and would like to incorporate ManyChat on both Instagram and Facebook. IG is going great but I’m hesitant to use it on FB.

Need Help Configuring Restaurant Reservation Flow with ManyChat + Make.com Integration

Hi everyone, 👋I'm new to integrating ManyChat with Make.com and need guidance to set up a restaurant reservation system. My goal is to automate reservations via ManyChat and sync them seamlessly with external tools like Google Sheets or a reservation management system.I’ve attached a screenshot of my current Make.com setup to show the flow I’ve been working on. However, I’m unsure about a few things:1️⃣ How do I structure the ManyChat flow to collect details like date, time, and party size effectively?2️⃣ How do I connect this to Make.com to ensure data is sent and retrieved correctly (e.g., to and from a Google Sheet)?3️⃣ What’s the best way to handle scenarios like “no available slots” or user cancellations within this system?If anyone has experience setting up a similar flow or can provide tips, templates, or tutorials, I’d greatly appreciate it! 🙏Thank you in advance for your help!

Restrict source address for external API Call

Hi everyone,Im running a pilot using some external APIs calls to add value on my bot! Im impressed about how easy was that to set up! Thank you!The only problem Im facing right now is that I need, for security reasons, restrict access to this external API so it can only accept calls from manychat bot. As I know you don't provide 1 IP or range? Which is the best way so I can solve this issue?

Specific instructions or documentation links would be greatly appreciated.Thank you very much!

Hi there, I’m having an issue with my current automation.I believe I set it up correctly but the preview keeps telling me I haven’t picked a post. But as you can see on the top left of the screen cap below, I have selected a post.I’ve tried to refresh permissions. I did an automation before that worked. Tried duplicating this one but doesn’t work either, nothing is sent to my followers.What am I missing here ?Thanks for your help !

Issue with Exporting Tags and Contact Information

Hi ManyChat Support,I am facing an issue with exporting my contacts' information, specifically the tags assigned to them. Currently, many of my contacts have their data saved as tags, and I need a way to export this information to analyze and organize it properly.I have tried using a Google Sheets flow with the "Tag applied" trigger, but it doesn't work for bulk exporting all existing tags for my contacts. I also couldn't find a straightforward way to export the tags using the Audience Export feature, as it seems limited in its capabilities.Could you please guide me on how to:Export all existing tags assigned to my contacts. Extract this data in a usable format (e.g., CSV or Google Sheets). Provide a clear method to bulk organize this data if ManyChat does not currently support this functionality.Your assistance will be greatly appreciated as this is crucial for managing my contacts and improving my workflow.Best regards,
