Introduction To Engage

Manage audience engagement at scale with your team through our Engage inbox

Social Network Based Conversations Actions

Statusbrew simplifies social media engagement with its Engage Inbox to manage conversations efficiently. Multiple actions can be performed on incoming conversations, with discrete permissions ensuring that only authorized users can respond or take action.

These Conversation Actions are divided into two categories internal actions and network-supported actions.

Network-Supported Conversation Actions are platform-specific actions that depend on the social network and the type of conversation, like replying, liking, hiding, or deleting comments, and more. The availability of these actions is determined by the network’s capabilities.

In this article, we will detail all available network-supported actions for each supported platform.

Replying To Conversations

The Engage Inbox consolidates all incoming conversations from your connected social profiles into one unified window. You can respond to them from here and even collaborate with your team on replies.

  • From the conversation list, select the conversation you want to respond to.

  • At the bottom of the conversation detail page, you'll find the reply box.

  • Type your response in the reply box and click Reply. If you wish to close the conversation as you reply, click Reply & Close.

Statusbrew supports both types of replies for Facebook and Instagram comments:

Choose Profiles To Respond From

You can choose a profile from the list while replying to a conversation. This feature is only available to the LinkedIn network.

Due to the APIs' limitation for the rest of the network, this feature is not available, and the conversations land in the Engage inbox for a reply from the respective profile.

Moderate Comments

If you're struggling with spam in your comment section, you can manually hide or delete comments. To do so, open the conversation (comment), click (three-dot menu) beside the comment. Select Hide/ Delete from the pop-up menu.

Additionally, you can click on Ban user button from the contact sidebar to block the user from commenting on Facebook for further control over spam.
