The short answer

In «Comment replies» pick the «Ad posts» source to see your ads' posts, choose the ones you want and press «Set a reply on them». Write a public reply in several variants and a private message or a ready bot message, or let the AI read each comment and write a fitting reply, then «Save and run».

The steps in the ArabyBot dashboard

  1. Open comment replies

    From the menu open «Comment Manager» to reach the «Comment replies» page, and pick the Facebook or Instagram tab.

  2. Pick the ad posts

    Switch the source to «Ad posts», pick a post or «Pick several posts», or «Post not shown? Paste its link», then «Set a reply on them».

  3. Write the reply

    A public reply in several variants, a private message or «Pick the bot message», a like, and «Once per person»; or let the AI reply.

  4. Save and follow

    Press «Save and run», and follow in «What happened» every comment answered and what was not delivered and why.

What you should know

  • «A short delay before replying» makes the reply come after a few seconds, so it looks natural and Facebook is less likely to pause replies.
  • The private message opens a conversation in the inbox that the AI agent or your team continues.
  • «Abuse protection» keeps your replies away from abusive comments.
