2

Choose the trigger

Start from a comment, story interaction, or eligible incoming DM.

Write the DM

Send plain text or add one clear HTTPS link button.

4

Test and activate

Run a real test from another account, then monitor delivery activity.

Try a real campaign pattern.

This example mirrors AP3K’s core event order. In production you choose the post, trigger, public reply, DM, and link independently.

Practical uses

Built around an outcome, not a diagram.

Deliver lead magnets

Send the exact guide, checklist, or resource promised in a post.

Route product interest

Move high-intent questions to a product, booking, or pricing page.

Handle repeat questions

Give fast answers while keeping the conversation available in Inbox.

Know the limits before launch.

Reliable automation starts with accurate expectations.

  • AP3K requires an Instagram Business or Creator account connected through Instagram authorization.
  • Automations respond to eligible new interactions after activation; they do not process old comments retroactively.
  • Each successfully sent public reply and each successfully sent DM counts as one automated action.
  • Instagram delivery and messaging windows remain subject to Meta platform rules and account permissions.

FAQ

Questions before you automate.

Can an automated DM include a clickable link?+

Yes. Add a complete HTTPS destination and a short button label such as Get the Guide or View Product.

Can I send only a DM without a public reply?+

Yes. Comment reply and Send a DM are separate actions, so you can enable only the DM.

How do I know whether the DM was sent?+

AP3K records campaign activity, successful sends, failures, and skipped actions so you can diagnose the result.
