Manychat isn't transferring first name to Kit (Convertkit)

Hi,

I’ve made an automation where people leave their e-mailaddress and first name and Manychat automatically adds them to Kit. But for some reason it won’t add their First Name to the Contact Data. I’m adding it manually now but that’s quite overwhelming when hundreds of people are reacting.

Does somebody recognize this problem? Or is somebody using a similar automation with the difference that it works? If so - please tell me how you do it. :)

 

Many thanks!

Hey ​@MarijkeV you should be able to transfer data if the data is in the form in you're using…

Here's the technical documentation: https://help.manychat.com/hc/en-us/articles/14281282083100-Kit-integration

Do you have your settings as shown in the docs, sending the First Name as a field?

If you still have trouble, share your setup here and we can take a look and maybe help you find the issue. You can also talk to support and open a ticket there.
