Message → Send Quick Reply

AI-generated

Overview

This node allows sending a quick reply message via Facebook Messenger on behalf of a selected Facebook Page. It is useful for automating interactive conversations where users can respond quickly using predefined buttons. For example, a business can send a quick reply asking customers if they want to receive promotional offers with Yes/No buttons, or provide multiple choice options for customer support.

Use Case Examples

  1. Send a quick reply message to a user with custom buttons for feedback.
  2. Send a default Yes/No quick reply message to confirm an appointment.
