Is it possible to use Manychat to auto-dm from keyword comments on a reel? We do this for Instagram and wanted to start using it for TikTok, but it doesn’t seem to be an option when trying to set up the automation trigger. If anyone could help, that would be great!

Hey, ​@Renée 

At the moment, TikTok doesn’t support auto-dm from comments (coming soon 👀), but you can ask your audience to send you a private message instead!

Check this article: https://help.manychat.com/hc/en-us/articles/17961702404892-Use-cases-and-strategies-for-TikTok-automations-on-Manychat

 

Also, there are 7 ready-to-go templates that you can use. Go to automations tab → + New automation → Filter by TikTok channel

 

Let me know if this helps 🙂

Hi ​@Renée I think using Tik Tok has a lot of potencial eventhough we dont have the same features as IG yet.

however as ​@rodrigo_silvano mentioned you can work in the mean time with the existing features. 🤗 which are really amazing! for example the one I had used with a Client for tik tok  paid adds was the URL. You can set it up as traffic objetive! 

 

I Hope the new features will come soon! Hope this helps while we wait 🫣

cheers!

Any updates as to when we can use automated DMs for reply to comments? Tiktok’s algorithm pushes videos based on interactions. Having a viewer DM us for information does not trigger more views. We need them to be able to comment a word that can trigger a DM like it does on IG.

Hi ​@LegalNurseLeads , you have a good point. 👌 Probably you can share your idea so the product team can check it.

Just create a new community post .---> an market it as an “idea”.

Cheers!
