1. Setting Up Pabbly Connect for Twitter and Pinterest Integration

To start using Pabbly Connect for connecting Twitter to Pinterest, you first need to log into your Pabbly Connect account. If you don’t have an account, you can easily create one by following the link provided in the description. Once logged in, you will be directed to your dashboard where you can create a new workflow.

To create a new workflow, click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button. You will be prompted to give your workflow a name. For this integration, you can name it ‘Create Pins in Pinterest from Twitter Posts Automatically.’ After naming your workflow, click on the ‘Create’ button to proceed.

2. Configuring the Trigger Application: Twitter

The next step involves setting up the trigger for your workflow in Pabbly Connect. Click on the trigger window and select Twitter as your app. You will need to choose the event that will trigger the workflow. In this case, select ‘New Tweet’ as the trigger event. This will initiate the workflow whenever a new tweet is posted.

• Select ‘Twitter’ as the trigger application.
• Choose ‘New Tweet’ as the trigger event.
• Click on ‘Connect’ to link your Twitter account.

After selecting the trigger event, click on the ‘Connect’ button. You will need to authorize Pabbly Connect to access your Twitter account. Once authorized, click on the ‘Save and Send Test Request’ button to fetch the details of the most recent tweet. This will allow you to confirm that the connection is working correctly.

3. Setting Up the Action Application: Pinterest

Now that your trigger is set up, the next step is to configure the action application, which is Pinterest in this case. Click on the action window and type in Pinterest to select it. Choose the action event as ‘Create Pin’ to automatically create a new pin from your tweet images.

Similar to the trigger setup, you will need to connect your Pinterest account. Click on the ‘Connect’ button and authorize Pabbly Connect to access your Pinterest account. Once connected, select the board where you want to create the pin and map the image URL from the Twitter response to the image field in Pinterest.

• Select ‘Create Pin’ as the action event.
• Map the image URL from the Twitter response.
• Choose the appropriate Pinterest board for your pin.

After mapping the necessary fields, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to check if the pin is created successfully in your Pinterest board. This step is crucial to ensure that your integration is functioning as intended.

4. Using Pabbly Connect’s Text Formatter

To enhance your pin’s title, you can utilize the text formatter feature in Pabbly Connect. This feature allows you to split text and remove unwanted parts, such as URLs. Click on the ‘+’ icon to add a new action step and select ‘Text Formatter’. Choose the action event as ‘Split Text’. This will enable you to format the title of your pin based on the tweet’s caption.

Map the caption from the Twitter data and set the separator as a dot (.) to split the text effectively. After this, you can select the segment you want to use for the title of your pin. Click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to see how the text is formatted and ensure it meets your expectations.

5. Finalizing the Integration and Testing

Once all the steps are configured, review your workflow in Pabbly Connect. Ensure that the trigger and action steps are correctly set up. You can make adjustments if necessary, such as changing the title or description of the pin. After ensuring everything is in order, click on ‘Save’ to finalize the setup.

Now, every time you post an image on Twitter, Pabbly Connect will automatically create a new pin in your Pinterest account with the image and caption from your tweet. This seamless integration saves you time and effort, allowing you to focus on creating more engaging content for your audience.
