When someone replies to your Instagram Story, that reply arrives as a DM. Use Instagram Story Automation in Fliqr AI to answer automatically with plain text or a published flow.

Before you start

  • Instagram is connected under Settings → Channels → Instagram
  • If you want to reply with a flow, create and publish that flow first

Create a Story reply automation

1

Open Story Automation

Go to Tools → Instagram Story Automation.
2

Add a new automation

Click Add New and give the automation a clear name (for example, Launch story replies).
3

Choose which Stories to track

Track replies on all Stories or a specific Story.
4

Use a short text reply when you only need acknowledgment. Use a flow when you want buttons, qualification questions, or handoff into an AI Agent.
