Solved

Hi!  I have been using automation to send links to my Instagram and Facebook followers for many months now and love it.  In the post I tell them to comment a specific word and if they do then the automation sends them the link to purchase.  It has been working perfectly but I have recently come upon a new article from Meta (https://www.facebook.com/business/help/259911614709806) that sounds like they are now saying it is “comment baiting”.  Comment baiting: Asking people to comment with specific answers (words, numbers, phrases or emojis). My question is, does this apply to our automated messages and will this change things for this feature moving forward?  I’m not really baiting them it’s just an easy way for them to get the link right to their inbox automatically if they want it. I don’t want to use the automation if it’s going to get my account suspended or action taken against me in any way.Thank you!

How can I give my VA access to  my account so she can help?

I had previously set up comment automation via Manychat on a video with approximately 1 million views, and Instagram warned me that the account could be suspended. Now, I want to set up a comment automation on an account with 350,000 followers and videos with at least 350,000 views, but since I know it will get much more interaction, I don't want the account to be banned if I make the same mistake again. What path should I follow to get high engagement without getting caught by Instagram? Has anyone encountered this error before, or what is the solution?

Boa tarde, ocorreu um erro no pagamento da minha conta PRO e não consegui a troca do cartão de crédito para continuar utilizando as funções do plano PRO. COMO ARRUMAR ISSO?

Hi ManyChat community.  I NEED HELP!  I am just getting started with ManyChat, but am unable to connect both my IG & FB accounts.  I have both personal and business accounts for both, and when I go to connect, only my personal accounts show up, and ManyChats is suggesting I need to switch those into business accounts….but I already HAVE business accounts.  The troubleshooting & FAQ page is not helpful. 😕 UPDATE: I FINALLY FIGURED IT OUT!!!!

Como saber a quantidade email já enviado?

Hey Fellow ManyChattersI am building a coaching flow, that checks in with my clients every morning during their time of relation to my business.I have an onboarding / permission flow that ends up adding the user to subscribe to my coaching sequence.Right now I have a TON of the same steps in the sequence (an automation trigger that runs the daily check in).But instead of having the same step duplicated (Feature request: copy step in sequence 😅) could I have a sequence with just ONE step, and remove and add the client every day, to re-trigger the same frist step of the sequence everyday?or maybe there is another way I haven’t come across yet for such a use case :-) Thanks in advance for your ideas, reflections and time :-)  Asger 

Hola! Acabo de contratar Many Chat y cree mi primer Auto DM de comentarios en Instagram y no funciona!Simplemente quiero que al comentar una palabra, se responda a esa palabra en los comentarios y que se envie un link por privado. Se supone que es de lo mas sencillo pero no funciona! Hay alguien de soporte para consultar o llamar?GRACIAS

Preciso fazer um disparo de mensagens via whatsapp para os clientes de um supermercado. Esses leads vão ser captados através do Instagram e por QR Codes espalhados pelo estabelecimento. Vão ser enviadas 1.000 mensagens por semana, com promoções, cupons de desconto, sorteios, etc.Minha dúvida, tomando como exemplo uma base de 2500 contatos. O supermercado vai pagar R$ 249,00 mensal a plataforma e mais os valores cobrados pela Meta por envio de mensagens? 

Hey there! I am trying to use the DM automation option on the free plan. No Pro options are in use but I am unable to “Go Live,” as it keeps forwarding me to the free trial Pro option, which ultimately charges you in 14 days. And I don’t have any live automation going on,so how do I opt out and go live in the free version? 

👉 The objective is to ensure the trigger activates only when the exact keyword 'Family' is used, without being part of a longer phrase or accompanied by punctuation.👉 Once tagged. It will trigger another automation.👉 Could this be possible?  

Hello I have two accounts under one email. I wanted to know if I can see the second account on here. I can't find a way to do so. 

I have a feeling that everytime my automation goes through a Smart Delay, the elapsed time gets bigger and bigger every time.Am I crazy?

Do I need to utilize all the automations in order to go live?

Olá pessoal!Recentemente acabei me tornando parceiro manychat e estou enviando links para meus clientes com os respectivos descontos de mensalidade, porém quando o cliente vai tentar criar uma conta usando o gmail ele recebe essa mensagem: Alguém saberia me informar se isso é algum problema com meu link ou se é algum problema ao tentar criar a conta pelo gmail? 

I'm setting up a workflow where I collect a meeting date. The meeting can be scheduled anywhere from 3 days to a week after the booking time. Regardless of when the appointment is set, I need a reminder to be triggered 12 hours beforehand—but I can’t find where to configure this. Thanks in advance to anyone who can point me in the right direction!

My follow-up smart delay isn’t working.  I have tried a few different things and had someone look into it and we cannot figure out why the delayed message isn’t sending.  Can someone help?  

I'm experiencing a problem where my flow gets stuck after the first message—none of the following messages (like email or phone number requests) are being delivered to the user.The flow is designed to collect the user's email and phone number, and then continue with the rest of the automation. It used to work fine, but now it just stops after the initial message, and nothing else is sent.I've already checked the conditions, delays, and message status, and everything seems correct. Still, the user doesn't receive the next messages.Has anyone else experienced this? Any ideas on what might be causing it or how to fix it?Thanks in advance! 

I have 2 Pro subscriptions. I think I only need one. I have one for my Facebook Business Page (PsychLife) and one for my Personal Facebook page (Lisa Csernica Rotella). When I use the Facebook Business page (PsychLife account) to connect to Instagram it says the account is already connected to my Lisa Csernica Rotella account. Do I need to cancel the personal account? Please advise.

How to clean or delete broadcasting history on manychat?

Hey guys, this is my first post! Unfortunately with a problem.I’m setting up an AI step that should do the following:Answer questions based on an FAQ. Ask qualifying questions to schedule a visit. Gather contact information. Escalate issues when needed. Once all information has been gathered, trigger a make automation to fill hubspot forms and deals.So, for some reason, after all the questions have been answered, the fields are being saved into the wrong place: I already tried creating the AI Step again, splitting the steps into FAQ > Intake > Questions + Scheduling and nothing works.To really test this out, I created an AI step with the same Context I’ve been using and only created 1 script action asking for the full name and it didn’t save it properly!My theory is that I put too many instructions inside and the chatbot doesn’t know what to do anymore, so it’s saving different user replies into whatever next field is “available”. Have any of you encountered this issue before?Her

When I have a broadcast +automation to export contacts to a Google Sheet, is that broadcast “always running” so every time a contact opts in, it’s added to that sheet? Or do I have to manually run it again for that to happen?

I have a client who would like to have a ManyChat automation trigger when anyone comments anything on an ad (not sure if we will follow through with this idea as is, but I’m trying to gauge if it’s possible). Is there a way to do this? How does comment reply on an ad work — most of the automations I’ve built have been for organic content. Thanks!
