Instagram Story Reply Automation: Auto DM Everyone Who Replies to Your Story

Your story says reply for the guide, and now your DMs are full. Here's how to answer every story reply automatically.

First, make sure everyone can reply. In Instagram settings, open Messages and story replies, and set story replies to Everyone.

In ReplyAtlas, click New Automation, and choose Story replies. Pick your account and give it a name. Add the word people should reply with — we'll use "free". Click Continue. Write the DM. Use the {{handle}} variable to greet them by name, and add your link. Leave the settings as they are, and click Create Automation. It's live on every story.

Now post a story that tells people what to reply. Let's test it. Reply "free" from another account, and the DM is there in seconds.

Start free at replyatlas.com. No coding, and it uses the official Instagram API.
