Keywords and triggers

By Kushagra Kumar, founder of Shre. Updated 1 July 2026.

Triggers decide when Shre sends a DM. The two triggers are comment keywords and story replies.

Quick answer

Yes, add several keywords and variants per automation.

Comment keyword triggers

Set one or more keywords for a post. Shre can match the exact word or any comment that contains it. Use variants to catch typos.

Story reply triggers

Any reply to your story can trigger a DM, which is ideal for "reply YES" story stickers.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use multiple keywords?

Yes, add several keywords and variants per automation.

Exact or partial match?

Do triggers work on reels?
