X Auto-DM

X Auto-DM is included with Link and Store. It works through X’s official API. Bento never starts a cold DM.

Set it up

  1. Open X Auto-DM.
  2. Connect or reconnect X and approve Direct Message access when X asks. Accounts connected before Auto-DM launched need one reconnect.
  3. Create a rule: choose replies, likes, reposts, or messages, enter keywords if you want them, and write the private reply.
  4. Save the rule and confirm it is enabled.
  5. Open Test rule and type a sample reply or DM. Bento shows whether the rule matches without contacting X or sending anything. Like and repost rules match every engagement of that type.
  6. Run Preflight to verify the real X connection before testing with a different account.
For the final live test, use a different X account. Check Recent replies for matched, sent, ignored, or failed events. Recipients must be able to receive DMs from your account. If a creator moves to Free, incoming events are ignored and no automated reply is sent. X app access and Direct Message permission are required before the feature can send.
