Hey Manychat Community!

In my new video, I explain how to connect ManyChat to ChatGPT, without writing any code.

We’ll set it up so that when someone asks a question in ManyChat, it automatically sends that question to ChatGPT.

ChatGPT gives the answer, and we send it right back to Manychat.

At the end of this video, you have a fully functional integration that automatically replies to questions with AI.

And I will even give you the template for FREE, so you can copy and paste it.

You can watch it here:

What is the benefit of this vs using the built in AI chatbot that manychat has?

What is the benefit of this vs using the built in AI chatbot that manychat has?

I think the built-in AI Chatbot could have some improvements. AI Intents is great, but then you still need to create seperate flows for each intent. I think the AI Step can be improved, because it is too rigid. If a user chooses to not follow the script that you set with the AI step, it cannot handle it. And I think that’s a drawback, because AI itself is usually capable of being that flexible.

I have followed your video tutorial in setting up flow to connect Chatgpt with Manychat... A week later, and the dialouge is still not flowing.

 

Copied it step by step, and then moved onto try another way.

 

Was just surprised to see your post here right at the beginning of it all..

@Growth Focused If you follow all the steps, it should work correctly.
What’s not working on your end? Maybe you can share a video of your setup in Manychat, in Make and then trying out the integration (showing an error if there is).

Then we can troubleshoot this!

  1. it doesnt remember what we have spoken about

    B) its not able to hold a continuous dialouge. 

    C) it stops replying and, will need to trigger reply by entering one of the prompt key words.


    * The video you created… it leaves out (i feel) critical elements that a beginner user like myself needs guidance on..

    For instance… When you start clicking things like GPT Question, to be added to a block there…

    There is no instruction or insight, that expresses, hey you will need to create specific fields…

    Nor does Manychat walk you through that process.

@Growth Focused I think you should rewatch my videos. The action you’re using in your automation is not the one I use in my video. If you follow all steps in my video, you have a working integration!

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        Yes you’re right, i put in the wrong screenshots.

This is where i am at. 

For both of those two boxes with a red (1) in them, the option wasnt to click OK in the bottom right corner, It was SAVE.

 

Whats it missing Joren?

I redid the whole thing as well after talking to the AI on the site.

It wont say OK in the bottom right corner at the beginning stages of this flow.

 

Followed all the steps up to here. What is missing Joren?
