Ad Plugins in for Bots
Sprout users can now promote chatbot experiences created in Sprout on Facebook Click-to-Messenger Ads or Twitter Direct Message Card Ads. Using an Ad ID string generated in Sprout, users can easily plug their unique bot workflow into an ad on each network.
- HOW TO:
- In the Settings tab, click Copy ID under Welcome Message ID (Twitter) or Bot Payload (Facebook).
- Paste IDs into the appropriate fields within the ad creation process for each network.
