How to connect another Facebook page to SmartReply

To connect another Facebook business page to SmartReply, you'll need to create a separate SmartReply account. Each SmartReply account can only be connected to one Facebook business page, and the same rule applies to all other channels. 

There's no option to link multiple Facebook business pages to a single SmartReply account, so you'll need a separate account for each page you manage.

To create a new SmartReply account and connect another Facebook page, click on the page avatar in the lower-left corner, select Accounts -> Create new account, and then follow the same steps as for the other page.
