Valor Dinamico para Eventos enviados por APINew

Al configurar el envío de un evento por API como purchase en Whatsapp se debe ingresar un valor fijo, sin embargo, sería útil que se pudiera establecer el valor desde un campo de usuario.

Regular expressions in keywords matchingNew

Please include an option to use regular expressions for keyowrds matching. This is especially useful in languages with diacritical marks, where people can combine any form of a word with diacritical marks - with all of them, with some of them, with none of them, also tend to swap letters z/y etc. Since the limit to match keywords is 10, many times it is not sufficient.Another option is to raise the keyword limit from 10 to at least 30, however, regular expressions would have been more elegant.

Summary about what Manychat automatizations did when the personal wasn`t workingNew

The idea is that when the personal its off, the automatizations still working. So when the personal starts working again, it will apear a summary about all the things that Manychat did when we were off.

Add Phone Call ButtonNew

Pleaes add a Phone call button in Features list, this will help customer to make a direct call to our representative

Ubicación ActualNew

Actualmente existe un bloque que permite recopilar ubicaciones de WhatsApp. Sin embargo, aunque ofrece al usuario la opción de compartir su ubicación actual, no existe una configuración que restrinja el envío únicamente a dicha ubicación, por lo que el usuario también puede seleccionar y enviar cualquier otra ubicación.

WhatsApp carousel templateNew

Please add a carousel template for WhatsApp (https://developers.facebook.com/docs/whatsapp/business-management-api/message-templates/carousel-templates/)

Remove the mandatory first message from Click-to-WhatsApp AdsNew

Please add native WhatsApp Forms so users coming from Click-to-WhatsApp Ads can submit their data and enter the funnel without having to manually send a message first.This extra “send message” step creates unnecessary friction at the most important point of the funnel: the entry.For lead generation, the ideal journey would be:Ad click → WhatsApp Form → lead data captured → automation startsinstead of:Ad click → WhatsApp opens → user has to send a message → automation starts → lead data has to be collected afterwardsFor businesses spending money on Click-to-WhatsApp Ads, every additional step can cost conversions. The current setup makes the entry into a WhatsApp funnel less seamless than it could be.Native WhatsApp Forms could be used to collect data such as:name email address phone number other lead informationdirectly at the beginning of the funnel.This would also solve another major problem: right now, many professional setups require additional workarounds with tools like Make or Zapier to transfer lead data between WhatsApp, ManyChat, email marketing tools and CRMs.That means more setup, more maintenance, additional costs and more potential points of failure.For such a basic part of a lead generation funnel, having to rely on external middleware feels unnecessarily complicated and makes the whole setup more error-prone.Other WhatsApp-focused platforms already offer form-based lead capture, while ManyChat is stronger in many other areas of automation. That makes this missing feature especially frustrating.For marketers and agencies building WhatsApp funnels professionally, this is not just a convenience feature. It can genuinely become a reason to recommend another platform, even if ManyChat would otherwise be the preferred choice.I would really love to see this prioritized.Is native WhatsApp lead capture without a mandatory first message currently being considered for the roadmap?

Add preview to whatsapp templates on DesktopNew

When I use Inbox in my phone and click on the “Templates” icon, Manychat displays a list of all the available templates along with a preview of each of them, so you know what it contains.However, when you are in the Desktop, you only get a list with the names (without preview), which makes it very hard to choose the right template when you have a lot of them: Plus, when you click on one it doesn’t appear in the chat so you can verify it’s the right one before sending it. Instead, it’s sent immediately. In the phone it works much better. When I click on the CHOOSE TEMPLATE button, I can see all the available templates along with a preview of each of them:  And then, when I click on one, it appears as selected, but I still need to click on SEND to send it:  I think the Inbox experience in Desktop should be like the one in Mobile:- Show a preview of each template- Requiere the user to click SEND to avoid sending something by mistake

Native WhatsApp Forms (In-App Forms)New

Currently, when running WhatsApp ad campaigns, users must send a keyword or message first before a ManyChat flow can start. This extra step creates friction in the lead onboarding process and can negatively affect conversion rates — especially in paid campaigns.Proposed Solution:Introduce native WhatsApp Forms (in-app forms) that open directly inside WhatsApp when a user clicks a link or ad.These forms would allow users to fill in fields such as name, email, preferences, or other custom data without needing to send a message first.Why This Matters:I build automated WhatsApp funnels via ManyChat for coaches and consultants in the DACH region, and this feature would be a real gamechanger for WhatsApp automation and advertising.Platforms like Spoki already offer this kind of native WhatsApp form experience — enabling smoother lead capture and higher conversion rates.With native WhatsApp forms, advertisers could: Simplify the ad-to-chat flow dramatically Collect structured data directly in WhatsApp Improve the first-contact experience for new leads Optimize campaign performance and reduce drop-offs Questions: Is native in-WhatsApp form support currently on the ManyChat roadmap for 2025? If not yet, is there any workaround (e.g., via structured messages, templates, or custom API logic) to simulate this behavior? Impact:This feature would make WhatsApp ads much easier to optimize, improve lead quality, and reduce friction in funnel automation — especially for businesses running WhatsApp-based lead generation at scale.

Search for numberNew

A search engine that allows searching by WhatsApp number is very useful and essential for making things easier for the user, instead of searching by name, where sometimes there are so many Maria Cardenas that it's hard to know which one is which.

Show the ad preview when default message stars conversationNew

 When the user starts conversation with defaul message like “¡Hola! Quiero más información” that is the default message for whatsapp conversations in Meta, it would be useful a preview or name of the ad so we can give further info to cx instead of asking all over again 

WhatsApp Template PreviewNew

Hello there,Since Meta's API doesn't support editing or deleting sent WhatsApp messages, ensuring 100% accuracy before it is sent, is critical for brand reputation. When users trigger template messages, especially for individual, out-of-window contacts, the system should not send them instantly. Instead, it should implement a mandatory preview step that displays all populated variables, requiring final confirmation before the message is actually sent.It’s too risky to have them shoot out instantly. A full preview with all the variables filled in, letting the user double-check and confirm everything before it goes live. Thanks,Nasser

Instant reply with fileNew

Could be productive to business owners to be able to send an instant reply with an image or file like PDF, ie: customer need the menu,  so i send instant reply with menu image.    actually is not possible since it only can be done with marketing templates wich is paid. 

Native Support for WhatsApp Catalog Templates (MPM / Product Lists)New

1. The Current Limitation Currently, ManyChat does not support syncing or sending WhatsApp Catalog Templates (templates with the mpm button sub_type for product lists). While we can send Interactive Product Messages natively, we are strictly limited to the 24-hour customer service window. We cannot send catalogs as business-initiated messages for re-marketing campaigns.2. The Feature Request Please add native support in Flow Builder for WhatsApp Catalog Templates. Specifically, we need: The ability to sync templates from WhatsApp Manager that include a Catalog/Product button. A native block to map dynamic variables (Custom Fields or JSON arrays) directly into the product_items array of the template. 3. Business Use Case (Delta Mobiliario) In our e-commerce operations managing furniture retail, we run targeted remarketing campaigns for specific collections (e.g., Dining Rooms, Sofas). Right now, to send a dynamic catalog outside the 24h window, we are forced to create a high-friction funnel: send a standard text template -> wait for the user to click a quick reply -> then trigger the native product list. Being able to send the catalog directly within the initial template would drastically increase conversion rates for e-commerce users.4. Why "External Request" is not a workaround Advanced users cannot bypass this by hitting Meta's Graph API directly. Since ManyChat acts as the BSP (Business Solution Provider) and holds the WABA number lock, attempting to send a template via API returns a #200 Permission Denied (OAuthException) error. We are entirely dependent on ManyChat implementing this natively.Please upvote if you run e-commerce flows on WhatsApp!

WhatsApp Coexistence — Messages automatically marked as "read" on WhatsApp Business App, preventing tracking of unhandled conversationsNew

Hello,Since connecting my number via WhatsApp Coexistence, every incoming message gets automatically marked as "read" in WhatsApp Business App as soon as Manychat's automation processes and replies to it — even though I haven't opened the conversation myself. This makes it impossible to track which conversations a human still needs to review.Other users have reported the same issue on the Manychat Community (e.g. "whatsapp coexistence- all messages are marked as read on the phone," Sept 2025, still unanswered).Is there a setting or fix to prevent this, or can this be logged as a feature request?Thanks,

WhatsApp FlowsNew

Since the beginning of the year, Meta has released WhatsApp flows, the carousels on WhatsApp, and so far I haven't seen Manychat move to make this happen. When will we have access to these new features, and why does the tool take so long to update?

New Feature: Request for Inbox/Agent PrivacyNew

 Title: I will switch my entire business to ManyChat if you add "Agent Chat Privacy feature"Description:I am currently using a different WhatsApp BSP, but I want to migrate my entire operation to ManyChat because your automation tools are superior. However, there is one missing feature stopping me from switching.The Requirement:My sales agents work on commission. In my current platform, Agents will only see the customers they have successfully "picked" or been assigned to.  In ManyChat, any agent can jump into another's chat and "steal" the commission. The Request:Please add a permission setting that:Restricts agent visibility to ONLY their "Assigned to Me" folder and Unassigned. Not All chats. Not chats assigned to fellow agents. Blocks(hided chats) from replying to any chat assigned to a different team member.My Commitment:If ManyChat adds this "Strict Assignment" or "Commission Protection" mode, I will immediately move my account and all my WhatsApp numbers over to your platform. This is a critical requirement for any sales team that operates on a commission structure.

Track the Last Message Sent by the Company on WhatsAppNew

Currently, part of the customer support workflow is handled directly through the WhatsApp mobile app by team members, outside of automated flows. This creates an important limitation: the system is unable to identify what was the last message sent by the company to a given customer, which negatively impacts automation continuity and context-aware decision making.This feature aims to enable the system to identify and retrieve the last outbound message sent by the company, regardless of whether it was sent via automation or manually through the WhatsApp app. By doing so, automations gain full conversation awareness, preventing duplicate messages, poorly timed follow-ups, or responses that conflict with recent human interactions.

Feature Request: Retrieve Full Lead Conversation via API or Native Action for Seamless CRM IntegrationNew

Context:We are integrating Manychat with our in-house CRM to create a unified and intelligent sales pipeline. Currently, we can capture basic lead data (name, phone number, tags, etc.), but there is no official method to retrieve the full conversation history between the user and the bot (or human agent).This limitation affects our ability to provide context to our sales team and to maintain proper records of interactions.Feature Request:We’re requesting a native action within Flow Builder or a dedicated API endpoint that enables us to retrieve the entire message history of a user — ideally in structured format (JSON or plain text), including all bot interactions and Live Chat messages.Use Cases: Provide full context to human sales agents when continuing conversations outside Manychat; Log conversations for quality control and auditing purposes; In the future, support emotional tone analysis and decision-making insights from conversation history. Why This Matters:This functionality would eliminate the need for complex workarounds and strengthen Manychat’s role as a central communication and sales tool. Businesses could operate with more continuity, precision, and accountability — enhancing the user experience and internal workflows.

ABANDONO DE CARRINHO - ENVIO AUTOMÁTICO DE BOLETO/PIX ETC.New

Seria muito interessante uma função nativa que permita enviar automaticamente o boleto, a linha digitável, o código de barras ou o código Pix no evento de carrinho abandonado da Hotmart, isso ajudaria muito na conversão e nos ajudaria a manter nossa assinatura com a Manychat, pois não perderíamos vendas.
