How to auto DM Instagram comments, step by step

Auto DM on comments means Shre watches a post for a keyword and sends a DM the moment someone types it. Here is the full setup, start to finish, on the official Instagram Graph API. Shre never logs into your account.

1. Connect your account

Use an Instagram professional account, either Business or Creator, and connect it to Shre. This is the official Meta connection, so you never hand over a password.

2. Choose the post or Reel

Pick a post that draws comments, or set up the automation before you publish a new one. Automations are set per post, so each post can have its own keyword and DM.

3. Choose keywords

Pick something short and easy to type, in one word, with no confusing spelling. Good choices are LINK, GUIDE, PRICE, or a single word tied to the offer. You can add a few variations so common typos still trigger the DM. See comment to DM for more on matching.

4. Write the DM

Open warmly, deliver exactly what you promised, and give one clear next step. Keep it short and human. Avoid pushy sales words. A good structure is a friendly line, the link, and a simple question to keep the conversation going. Browse DM templates for wording.

  • Say the keyword in your caption so people know what to type
  • One clear call to action per DM
  • Include the link or booking page you promised

5. Test it

From another account, comment the keyword and confirm the DM arrives correctly with a working link. Fix anything, then turn it on for real.

6. Watch and improve

See which keywords and posts drive the most conversations and repeat what works. Pair it with email follow up for people who do not act right away. Try the free 7 day trial, no card, then a flat 499 rupees a month with unlimited messages.
