2.4a - Deploying Chat Assistant With Active Tag - SMS, Instagram, FB and Whatsapp

Implementing an AI Assistant for SMS, Facebook Messages, Instagram Dm and WhatsApp Responses

Introduction

  • Welcome to the tutorial on building an AI assistant for chat.

  • Prerequisite: An AI assistant must already be created.

Step 1: Assign Phone Number, Facebook page connected with professional Instagram Account and whats app connected

  • Use your phone number to connect with the live chat.

  • Connect FB and instagram to GHL

  • Connect WhatsApp to GHL

Step 2: Create an Active Tag

  • Definition: An active tag connects an AI to a contact.

  • Create a new active tag named "test SMS".

  • Follow naming conventions (use underscores and lowercase letters).

  • Save the tag to ensure it is registered in the system.

Step 3: Set Up Automation Workflow

  • Navigate to the automation window to create a new workflow.

  • Trigger: Set the trigger to "customer replied".

  • Filter: Add a filter for the reply channel and select "SMS" for sms, "Instagram DM" for Instagram, "Facebook Messenger" for Facebook & "WhatsApp" for WhatsApp

Step 4: Check for Existing AI Tags

  • Implement a condition to check if the contact already has an AI tag.

  • If tagged, stop the automation to avoid duplicate tagging.

  • If not tagged, proceed to add the "test SMS" tag.

Step 5: Connect AI to Contact

  • By adding the tag, you connect the AI to the contact based on their reply.

  • Create an initial welcome message to trigger a response from the contact.

Step 6: Finalize Automation Settings

  • Ensure re-entry is not allowed to prevent repeated automation for the same contact.

  • Save all actions and settings.

Step 7: Testing the Setup

  • Copy the assigned phone number and send a test SMS.

  • Monitor the conversation and server logs to check for successful automation triggers.

  • Confirm that the AI is responding as expected.
