General Q&A

Hi, I’m trying to connect only my Facebook Business Page to ManyChat Messenger.I follow: Add New Account → Facebook Messenger → Facebook login.I select only:my Facebook Page “L’Encre Virtuelle” my Meta Business Portfolio “L’encre virtuelle”After that, Meta forces me to choose an Instagram account. If I select “current assets only” and select no Instagram account, the Continue button is disabled.The only Instagram account displayed belongs to one of my clients, so I cannot grant ManyChat access to it.I have already tried:a fresh ManyChat profile with no channel connected private/incognito browsing reconnecting from Add New Account → Facebook Messenger selecting only my own Facebook Page and Business PortfolioManyChat is not listed yet in my Facebook Business Integrations.How can I complete a Facebook Messenger-only connection without granting access to any Instagram account?

Hi everyone!I would really appreciate some help here as the support team have still not gotten back to me and I'm pretty reliant on automations on my Insta Account. I have not been able to access my account since I logged off about 2 weeks ago. All I get when I try to log in through my insta (see screenshot below) is that the Request has been sent to my page. Yet this FB page I am on is the one that I used to sign up to my account. I have no idea where the "Request" might have been sent. I was also billed for my subscription so I am on PRO but I can't even access it and I have no idea what to do next. If you have experienced this or know how to resolve this, you'd be a hero!Thanks a lot,Alana 

Hallo zusammen,hat jemand von euch eine Lösung für folgendes Problem gefunden?Mein Follow-to-DM ("Say hi to new followers") läuft seit über einer Woche mit 0 Runs, obwohl alles korrekt eingerichtet war: Trigger aktiv, Conversation-Routing-Berechtigung bei Meta aktiviert, Permissions frisch autorisiert, sogar mit einem gezielten Test durch einen echten neuen Follower bestätigt, dass trotzdem nichts ausgelöst wird. Meine Automation ist dabei kein Standard-Flow aus der Vorlage, sondern ein selbst gebauter, custom Flow im Flow Builder mit drei Antwortoptionen statt nur einem Button, der Support hat mir aber bestätigt, dass der Aufbau technisch korrekt ist. Meine Comment-to-DM-Automation auf demselben Account funktioniert dabei einwandfrei.Der ManyChat-Support hat mir bestätigt, dass der "Say hi to new followers"-Trigger aktuell eine Meta-Beta-Funktion ist, zu der Meta selbst steuert, welche Accounts Zugriff bekommen, ohne Bewerbungsmöglichkeit, ohne Liste und ohne Ankündigung bei Entzug.Gi

Hi Everyone, hoping to get some insight. Manychat was working for me earlier today, but all of a sudden stopped working for my last 2 posts. My old posts and my stories have working automations. I’ve done all the resets - resetting permissions, going through FB and IG settings and removing Manychat from the added apps options. I’m also currently on the trial version, so I’m wondering if there are any restrictions. Any insight would be greatly appreciated!

Hi, I’m having an issue with the Facebook Messenger Main Menu for my ManyChat account. My current ManyChat Default Menu has only 3 items: 1. Энгийн меню 2. Сэт меню 3. Хаяг байршил However, Facebook Messenger still displays an OLD 5-item persistent menu, including two old items that no longer exist in my ManyChat Main Menu: * Ажиллах цагийн хуваарь * Өрөөний цагийн үнэ I have already tried: * Main Menu is enabled. * Clicked Update Menu successfully. * Made a small edit, updated the menu, reverted the edit, and updated again. * Refreshed Facebook permissions. * I have Full Control of the Facebook Page. * I am the Owner of the ManyChat account. * ManyChat is the Default Routing App for Messenger. * There are no Dynamic Menus configured. * All 3 current menu items are correctly linked and have no unpublished changes/yellow dots. * Meta Business Suite Frequently Asked Questions is OFF. * I tested from a different Facebook account and the same old 5-item menu still appears. It appears that

Hello,  Can you please tell me how to get the complete list of all the people who clicked on a link. The dashboard only shows the top 25 people. Is there a way export or see a complete list? Thanks! 

I’m trying to connect a Professional Instagram account to a new Manychat account using “Connect Via Instagram.” I approved access to comments and messages, but Manychat then displayed “Your account might not support this method yet” and returned to the Connect Instagram screen.In Instagram, “Allow access to messages” is on, and message requests are set to Everyone. The account has never successfully connected, so I cannot use Refresh Permissions.What else should I check to make this Instagram connection work?

Hi How do I welcome a new follower from Instagram without adding a clickable link? I just want to say hi. Best, Jesper

Hi! I own the Instagram account Chaux Maria | Fitness | Entrenamiento y Nutrición ​@Chauxfit . It's connected to a Manychat account called "Maria chaux", created by a former admin who no longer responds. I sent an access request with no answer. The AI assistant confirmed I need a manual review with proof of ownership, but it can't create a ticket and I have no requests in my Help Center account. Could a moderator or the support team please help me disconnect my Instagram so I can connect it to my own account? I can provide proof of ownership. Thank you!

Hello,I’m trying to setup an automation so that when asking for the person’s email, it should check for validation before sending them the tutorial link. Well, even if the person puts whatever they want in the section where it asks for an email, it still send them the link. I’ve been trying to use the AI chat within Manychat for about 2 hours and can’t seem to figure it out yet. Any ideas? Thanks,Noah  

I’m trying to upgrade my free plan and it keeps saying something went wrong and try again. Then I get an email saying I don’t have an upgrade and I need to renew. That’s what I’m trying to do! How do I fix this when I can’t contact anyone in support until my upgrade is complete? 🤦🏼‍♀️

Hey everyone!I’m struggling to set up an auto-reply to comments via DM. I’ve tried a couple of times and asked different friends to test it, but it’s not triggering the flow I created.Has anyone run into this before or know what I might be missing?

Facebook Page not showing in ManyChatHi, I’m trying to connect a Facebook Business Page to my ManyChat account.My Facebook profile has Full Access to the correct Page in Meta Business Portfolio.However, ManyChat only shows a different Facebook Page that was previously connected to the account.I have already:removed the old Page from ManyChat refreshed Facebook permissions used Edit Previous Settings logged out and tried Incognito confirmed Full Access in Meta Business SuiteDuring Meta authorization, I can select the correct Page and grant all required permissions. However, at the end ManyChat shows:“Can't connect this page due to an error! Looks like you're logged in with another Facebook profile.”After that, ManyChat still only shows the old Page.How can I completely remove the old Facebook Page/profile association from this ManyChat account and connect the correct Page?

Hi… just signed up for Manychat and getting a little frustrated. I have the automations set up and seem to work but the first problem that I’m running into is that the Trigger is not auto-responding to the Instagram comment.So, when a user comments “story”, I just see their reply.  However, my understanding was that the trigger should have auto-commented an answer to their reply. I have an IG Professional account and also see that Manychat is connected. So, not sure what is going on.

Hi everyone,I set up the "Say hi to new followers" automation (BETA) on an Instagram account and it's LIVE, but Insights still shows 0 sends.Setup:- Instagram channel connected, Free plan- Trigger: when someone new follows, delay 5 minutes- Opening DM with a button, then a second DM with 2 link buttons- "Allow access to messages" is enabled in the Instagram app- Automation live since 22.09.2026What I've already checked:- Automation status is LIVE- Instagram permissions refreshed via Settings > Instagram > Refresh PermissionQuestions:1. Does this feature work on the Free plan, or does it require Pro?2. Is there any known delay or limitation (account type, follower count, region/EU) for this BETA feature?3. Is there anything else I should check?Thanks!

Hello, ManyChat! I don't have the budget to increase my subscription to $99 a monthI’m on the Pro account, and I have 7,500 active contacts.I got a message that everything was paused, and I just launched a new post with automation.What can I do with my contacts? I’m willing to delete them if need be. If I can, how do I do a bulk deleteThanks!Stephania  

Hi ManyChat Support, I paid $99 for the Business plan and was then charged another $165 when my active contacts crossed 7,500. My automations have now stopped. Please confirm whether the $165 was charged for an upgrade to Advanced or for contact overages. If it was an upgrade, please confirm that my 25,000 active-contact allowance is active and restore my automations. Please also show the prorated credit applied for my unused Business plan. If the charge was for overages, please explain why the automations stopped, whether an overage threshold was reached, and how the charge will be treated if I upgrade to Advanced within this billing cycle. Please share an itemised breakdown of both charges.

I have an automation set up so that when someone comments with a keyword, a link is sent to them, and there should also be a reply to the comment. The links are being sent, but there are no longer replies to the comments. I that been working properly un until now.Edited to add that there is only one post this is not working on. The others are functioning properly, and it initially started out working just fine on this post.

For some reason, I have two separate Manychat accounts; one connected to my Facebook Page and another connected to my Instagram account. The paid account is currently linked to my Instagram only.I don’t want to start deleting or changing things randomly because I’m worried about breaking the automations that are already running. I want to have both my Facebook Page and Instagram account connected under a single Manychat account.I’ve tried deleting the accounts, cloning them, and moving the accounts/connections, but nothing seems to work. When I try to add my Facebook Page to the Manychat account, it won’t let me, even though the Facebook Page and Instagram account are connected through Meta Business Suite.Has anyone successfully combined Facebook and Instagram under one Manychat account? If so, what’s the correct way to do this without disrupting the existing Instagram automations?Thank you in advance for any support!

It would be great if there was an auto-delete feature for contacts. I don't need any contacts in Manychat, I use it for the autoresponder and yet I get charged based on contact number, and I only need exactly zero contacts.  I have to log in every few days to delete all my contacts in order to stay under 3,000 contacts and that is a real hassle.  Is there any way to work around this?

HI,I’m a newbie and I want to create an automated reply by an AI Agent using make.com but the comment field is not showing when I tried it to Action → External Request → JSON Body.I just want to confirm if its really impossible to do it or is there a way other than this? Thank you.

Hi Please can someone help as other posts don’t seem to solve my concern and not sure why there isn’t a support function…? None of my new automations work, I have a paid account, there’s only one word etc all the other problems I’ve seemed to gone through on here but still nothing? Reply to comments also isn’t working? And the accounts are linked. Any advice would be great thanks x

Can I connect two different Instagram accounts to the same Essential plan as my two channels?Is the 250 Active Contacts monthly limit shared across both channels?
