FAQs
1) Can I connect multiple Instagram pages for BIK?
Yes, you can connect multiple Instagram pages on BIK, but the flows would be page agnostic in BIK, i.e a ‘Welcome Flow’ in BIK can’t be instrumented at a page level
2) Will my customer’s comments on Instagram pages come in BIK?
Post 10-15 mins of your Instagram page connection, all comments would start reflecting in BIK’s Helpdesk tab
3) I have two pages on IG under 1 business account - will that work ?
Go to https://www.facebook.com/settings/?tab=business_toolsand enabling all the page permissions under "Business integrations" in BIK WA integration.
4) I want to run a specific automations/assignment on collaboration posts
There are two scenarios:
1. Where brand is tagged in collab posts 2. Where brand is not tagged in collab posts
Collab posts where brand is tagged, flows into BIK & generic automations can be setup without specificity
Meta has a limitation where it doesn’t send required identifier of it being a collaboration post, so we can run generic automations but not specific to a collaboration post similar to PP
