• Choose ‘New Spreadsheet Row’ as the trigger event.

After setting up the trigger, you will be prompted to connect your Google Sheets account, allowing Pabbly Connect to access your spreadsheet data.

3. Setting Up Google Sheets for Integration

Next, you need to set up your Google Sheets for integration with Pabbly Connect. Create a new Google Sheet and label it as ‘Data as Subscriber’. Ensure you have two columns: ‘Name’ and ‘Email’.

To integrate Google Sheets with Pabbly Connect, navigate to the ‘Add-ons’ menu, select ‘Pabbly Connect Webhooks’, and choose ‘Initial Setup’. Here, paste the webhook URL provided by Pabbly Connect into the designated field and specify the trigger column, which is usually the last data entry column.

4. Capturing Data in Pabbly Connect

After setting up Google Sheets, you can start capturing data. Fill in the ‘Name’ and ‘Email’ fields in your Google Sheet. For example, enter ‘Roger Stone’ and ‘[email protected]’. Once you do this, Pabbly Connect will automatically capture this data.

To confirm that the data has been captured, return to Pabbly Connect and check the captured data section. You should see the details you entered, including the name and email address, indicating the integration is working correctly.

5. Creating Subscribers in Campaign Monitor

Now that you have captured the data in Pabbly Connect, the next step is to create a subscriber in Campaign Monitor. In the action window, select ‘Campaign Monitor’ as the app and choose ‘Add Subscriber’ as the action event.

To connect to Campaign Monitor, you will need to provide your API key. Access your Campaign Monitor account settings to generate a new API key. Once you have copied the key, paste it into Pabbly Connect and save the connection.

• Select the list you want to add subscribers to.
• Map the email and name fields from the captured data.
