3. Setting Up Trigger Using Google Sheets

The next step involves setting up a trigger in Pabbly Connect using Google Sheets. Select Google Sheets as your trigger application and choose the event ‘New or Updated Spreadsheet Row’.

After selecting the trigger event, you will receive a webhook URL. Copy this URL to connect your Google Sheets with Pabbly Connect. Ensure you have a Google Sheets document ready to receive data.

• Install the ‘Pabbly Connect Webhooks’ add-on from the Google Workspace Marketplace.

After setting up the trigger, you can proceed to test the connection by adding a new row in your Google Sheets.

4. Action Step in MemberPress with Pabbly Connect

Now, it’s time to set up the action step in Pabbly Connect using MemberPress. Select MemberPress as your action application and choose the event ‘Create a Member’.

Next, connect your MemberPress account by entering the API key and site URL. You can find the API key in your WordPress dashboard under the MemberPress settings. Make sure to enter the correct site URL without including any admin paths.

Map the data from the Google Sheets trigger to the MemberPress action fields. Make sure to use the email address as the username for the new member. Select options for sending welcome emails based on your preference.

Once the action step is configured, you can save the settings and test the integration to ensure everything works as expected.

5. Testing the Integration Between Google Sheets and MemberPress

After configuring both the trigger and action steps in Pabbly Connect, it’s crucial to test the integration. To do this, add a new row in your Google Sheets with the required member details.

Once the new row is added, check your MemberPress account to verify that the new member has been created successfully. This will confirm that the automation is functioning as intended.

Ensure that all required fields in MemberPress are filled correctly from the Google Sheets data. Check for any errors in Pabbly Connect if the member is not created. Repeat the process with different data to ensure reliability.

With successful testing, you can now enjoy the benefits of automated member creation, saving time and reducing manual entry errors.
