Hello,

Let’s say someone replies to my automation in a feed post or story, can I get the post/story ID that the person replied to?

Hi Alexandre! Not natively, this is something we have been requesting from the MC team for a bit now, @Natalie Evseyeva and @Inessa Arshakian are who can help us make this dream a reality jaja since we can never know where the person came from when they comment

If not natively, how is it possible? Is there a reliable workaround?

This would be really helpful.

From a code point of view, if Manychat can already identify a specific post for monitoring comments, then it can somehow link the comment with a post. So, in that case, it should be able to capture that post information as a variable, so we can use in automation.

Does that make sense?

What a disappointing, not being able to get the post ID is absolutely a no brainer. How come after so long of people requesting this feature, we are still here.
I’m advising my customers to LEAVE manychat.
