Update a comment automation
The account and post cannot change. Pausing stops it at once; comments made while it is paused are never answered. Resuming starts from then.
apiKeyAuthorizationBearer <token>An API key from the web app, under Developers. It starts with rz_live_.
id*stringThe comment automation's id (cauto_).
length <= 100application/json- body
name?stringFor people: "Guide on the October reel".
1 <= length <= 80keywords?array<>Any of them triggers it, in any case and with or without accents. Empty: every comment.
items <= 20match?stringcontains: the keyword anywhere, even inside a longer word. word (the default): as a whole word or phrase. exact: the whole comment is the keyword, give or take punctuation and spaces. Always in any case and with or without accents.
"contains""word""exact"exclude?array<>A comment with any of these, as whole words, never triggers it.
items <= 20message?The private reply: its text, and the link behind a button.
publicReplies?array<>Up to 5. After the private reply goes out, one is posted under the comment, picked at random, so the replies do not all read the same.
items <= 5markDone?booleanMark the comment's thread done once the private reply went out.
followGate?|Instagram only. The private reply asks them to follow and reply, with a button that replies for them; their reply gets the message if they follow, or the reminder once.
oncePerPerson?booleanOne message per person for this automation, however many times they comment.
utm?|UTM tags added to every address in the message, so your own analytics (Google Analytics and the like) see which network and automation brought each visitor; the Rizamo links send people to the tagged address. A tag left out takes its default: source the network (instagram or facebook), medium social, campaign the name as a slug ("Guide on the October reel" is guide-on-the-october-reel). An empty one adds none, and a tag already in an address stays as it is. Null: none. Changing the tags, or the name while the campaign is its slug, makes new links for the new addresses; the automation's link clicks add up across them.
status?stringpaused stops it at once: comments made while it is paused are never answered. active resumes it from then.
