2. Setting Up the Google Forms Trigger in Pabbly Connect

In this step, you will set Google Forms as the trigger in your Pabbly Connect workflow. After creating your workflow, name it something like ‘Google Forms to Convertkit’ and click on create.

• Select Google Forms as your trigger application.
• Choose ‘New Response in Spreadsheet’ as the trigger event.
• Copy the webhook URL provided by Pabbly Connect.

Next, go to your Google Forms, navigate to the responses tab, and create a new Google Sheets spreadsheet to collect the responses. This spreadsheet will serve as the link between Google Forms and Pabbly Connect.

3. Linking Google Sheets with Pabbly Connect

Now that you have your Google Sheets set up, you need to link it to Pabbly Connect. In your Google Sheets, go to Extensions, select Pabbly Connect Webhooks, and then click on Initial Setup.

• Paste the copied webhook URL into the designated field.
• Set the trigger column to the last data column (e.g., ‘E’).
• Click on Submit to complete the setup.

After this, you can test the connection by submitting a response in your Google Form. This will send the data to your Google Sheets and trigger Pabbly Connect to capture the response.

4. Configuring Convertkit Action in Pabbly Connect

With the Google Forms trigger set up, the next step is to configure Convertkit as the action in your Pabbly Connect workflow. Select Convertkit as the action application and choose ‘Add Subscriber to Form’ as the action event.

To connect to your Convertkit account, you will need your API key and API secret. Log into your Convertkit account, navigate to Account Settings, and find your API key under the Advanced settings. Paste the API key and secret into Pabbly Connect to establish the connection.

5. Testing and Finalizing the Integration

After setting up the action, you will need to map the fields from your Google Forms responses to the corresponding fields in Convertkit. This includes mapping the first name, last name, and email address.

Once you have completed mapping, click on ‘Save & Send Test Request’ to check if the integration works correctly. If successful, you will see a confirmation that a new subscriber has been added to your Convertkit account.

Finally, refresh your Convertkit subscribers list to see the new addition. This entire process automates the addition of Google Forms leads as subscribers in Convertkit using Pabbly Connect.
