How it works

Your client sends you a message via Facebook Messenger.

You'll receive only Facebook messages in Bitrix24, not Facebook posts or comments. Learn how to receive comments in this article: Facebook: connect comments.

You get this message in Bitrix24 Messenger and reply to your customer there.

If there is no such client in your CRM, a new lead is created (automatically or manually, depending on your Open Channel settings).

Important features of connecting Facebook messages

  • The operator should reply to client messages on Facebook within 24 hours. After 24 hours since the last client message, the operator's messages will not be delivered in the chat.

  • When you disconnect the connected Facebook user in Open Channel settings, the Facebook page gets disconnected too.

  • If the connected Facebook user loses their administrative rights, this Facebook page gets disconnected automatically.

  • You can connect Facebook pages only (not groups).

  • Any Bitrix24 administrator can connect or disconnect Facebook pages if they have access permissions to Open Channels settings.

  • You cannot connect the same Facebook page with Open Channels in several Bitrix24. Only the one that was connected last will work.

  • If your message contains more than 640 characters, it will be split.

  • You cannot edit or delete messages in this communication channel.
