02/15/2024, 2:37 PMThe question would be, can I send a message proactively on Instagram and Messenger? I read the documentation and it looks like I can only do that on Whatsapp

02/21/2024, 8:52 AMHi Tayma, maybe @crooked-van-25152 might know who at botpress would be most likely to know about this. I have a feeling you might need to have a trigger for the conversation to start. But perhaps you can use the fixed scheduler trigger and call a function that grabs the next table record where you have a phone number saved for WhatsApp?
