Auto-responders let you send automated replies across various channels, effortlessly enhancing your customer engagement and satisfaction.

Before you start

Things you need to know:

  • Two-way chat and chatbots are not currently supported with our WhatsApp integration. Instead, you can use an auto-responder.

Create an auto-responder for WhatsApp

  1. In Dotdigital, go to Connect > Integrations. Then, search for auto-responder.

  2. Select +ADD, then select INSTALL.

  3. Read about the integration, then select NEXT.

  4. For Channel selection, choose the channels you want your auto-responder to respond to. In this case, select WhatsApp.

  5. For Number selection, expand the Numbers to monitor drop-down menu, then select ALL.

  6. For Response message, enter the message you want the auto-responder to reply with. Try to keep it short. Especially for SMS.

  7. Select NEXT, then select FINISH.

That’s it. Your auto-responder is set up.
