Ads that Click to Instagram are a new product by Meta and they have their issues, as a partner we've done our best to find ways around them. Rest sharing here.

Customer Messages but Automation Did not Reply

So here's how our CTD automation works

  1. You setup a flow, in which the first message is automatically sent by meta to the user the moment the click an ad

  2. Now if they reply to the same Ad with a random message, the automation will not trigger

  3. They HAVE TO click on one of the buttons you've set

Pro Tip: Add keyword triggers like in the above screenshot so that it triggers for relevant keywords too

If CTD ads are the only thing you're running on the instagram account, just setup a default reply, and trigger this workflow from that, that will literally trigger this automation for anyone who sends a message. So no one will be missed.

How to setup a default reply to trigger ads automation for any DM that is sent?

Go to automations > default automations > edit automation for your instagram channel

The FAQ options dont show when I'm checking the Ad

All the options and the first message you send are sent as a DM to the person in their chat, it does not show as a list of options anywhere else.
