Automatic flow start

(Antonio) #1

Hi,
is there a way to automatically start a flow when (in Telegram or Messenger) user just select the bot?

Now user has to:
1) Select the bot on the platform;
2) type a word (which will trigger the flow)
3) start to interact with the flow.

My question is:
Is it possible to avoid point n. 2), so that after user selects the bot, this starts running immediately its flow?

Hi @ansfo2013

When a user first connects to the bot a message is sent in the background saying ‘start’.

If you add start as a keyword to your New Message trigger it will trigger the flow when a new user connects.
