Create an Instagram flow
Create a flow for Instagram, set every block's message type to Instagram and publish it.
To run a chatbot on Instagram, you first create a flow for Instagram. This guide creates a flow named “Үндсэн цэс” (Main menu) and takes you all the way to publishing it. Before you start, Instagram must be added to your service as an add-on and connected.
Create a new flow
In the left menu, open Flows (Өрөлт) and click Create new (Шинээр үүсгэх).
In the window that opens, type a name for the flow (for example “Үндсэн цэс”) and click Continue (Үргэлжлүүлэх).
Set the first block's message type
In the flow editor, click the Send message (Мессеж илгээх) block under Start (Эхлэх).
In the panel on the left, choose Instagram from the Message type (Мессежийн төрөл) list. By default it is set to Omnichannel.
Add content
Click Add content (Контент нэмэх) and type the message the user will receive, for example “Сайн байна уу? Мэдээлэл аваарай” (Hello! Get information below).
Add a button and connect the next block
Under the message, click Add button (Товчлуур нэмэх). Type the button name in Button label (Товчлуурын шошго), for example “Холбоо барих” (Contact us), and click Save (Хадгалах).
Then add the next block and connect it to the button. When a user taps the button, this block's message is sent.
Set the next block to Instagram as well
Click the new block and set its Message type to Instagram too. Then add its content, for example your phone number.
Publish the flow
When all blocks are ready, click Publish (Нийтлэх) in the top right corner.
Check the flow list
Go back to the Flows (Өрөлтүүд) list and find your flow. A yellow mark in front of its name means the flow has not been published. There should be no yellow mark.
The flow works when Status (Төлөв) and Conversation (Харилцан яриа) are switched on.
Every block in an Instagram flow must use the Instagram message type. If you pick another type, such as Messenger, the flow will not work on Instagram.
You do this in the Chatbot panel.login.smartbot.mn
