1. Channel activation

To use Facebook Messenger, you should have the Facebook channel activated in your iAdvize account. Please contact your Success Manager if it isn't already done.

2. Facebook Messenger synchronization

"Message Us" could used in the same way as a floating button.

Add your Facebook Messenger account directly in the iAdvize administration by this way :

Engagement > Settings > Messenger > Add new pages 

Several pages could be synchronize at the same time in the iAdvize interface. You just have to select the pages and to validate this step. Then, you'll receive a confirmation message and the Facebook pages should appear in the iAdvize administration. Global Facebook pages are able via iAdvize and it's possible to synchronize every single "daughter" page.

When we synchronize your account "Messenger", it is your Facebook page and all private messages associated with it.

Therefore, we collect all private messages addressed to this page via this following ways:

- Thanks to the iAdvize buttons (floating or fixed) via the Messenger redirection;

- Via the "Message" button placed on your Facebook page.

Vice-versa, messages are also present in your Facebook private messaging page.

So this is the same messaging system that is available on several devices :

- Messenger on desktop http://www.messenger.com;

- Messenger mobile application;

- Private messaging Facebook (desktop and mobile).

Like any iAdvize interaction element, the display of the Message Us button is conditioned by targeting rules, or present as a fixed button.

3. Activation of the channel for users

The last step consist to add the social media expertise to your agents who have to answer to social media messages.

By the way, a picking-list corresponded to one SID where the rules and the social accounts are synchronized. So, this requires that the user has the correct site associated in his "Expertise" field.
