What an automation does

An automation watches comments and DMs for a keyword. When it matches, Mingly sends the reply or link you wrote, every time, exactly as written.

Create one

  1. Step 1: In Automations, create an automation and choose where it starts: a comment on a post or reel, or a DM.
  2. Step 2: Pick a keyword and how it should match: Exact message, Whole word or phrase, Starts with, or Contains anywhere. For comments, choose one post or reel, or every post and reel.
  3. Step 3: Write the reply. You can add a link button.
  4. Step 4: Test it privately. No Instagram message is sent. Then tap Save and turn on.

Templates help you start: reply to a comment with a link, send your link on request, or answer a pricing question.
