### Set Up Zap

To create a Zap that automatically responds each time a client leaves a community comment:

#### Trigger: Commented Created

1. In **Zapier**, create a new **Zap**.
2. Choose **Passion.io** (or your relevant platform) as the app.
3. Select **"Comment Created"** as the event.
4. Choose the relevant **community post** to track.
5. Test the trigger to confirm it’s capturing comments.

#### Action 1: Generate Reply

1. Add an **Action Step** for the chatbot:
2. Choose the chatbot platform.
3. Set the action to **"Generate a Reply"**.
4. Configure the chatbot:
   
     - Select the chatbot you set up earlier.
     - Use **User ID** as the conversation key to track responses.
     - Map the **comment text** from the trigger step as the chatbot input.
5. Test this step to ensure the chatbot generates a response.

#### Action 2: **Send Channel Message**

1. Add another **Action Step**:
2. Choose **"Send Channel Message"** as the action.
3. Configure the **Community ID**:
   
     - If not available directly, get it from your **community admin settings**.
     - Set the **Post ID** from the comment trigger step.
     - Use the **chatbot’s generated message** as the response.
4. Test the Zap: Run the Zap test to ensure it sends chatbot responses back to the community.

#### Publish the Zap

Once the trigger and actions are correctly set up, click on the Publish button in the upper-right corner. 

Your chatbot is now set up to automatically reply to comments in your community, improving engagement and response time.
