1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Integration

To begin integrating Cognito Forms with Constant Contact, first access Pabbly Connect. Start by visiting the Pabbly website and selecting the Pabbly Connect product from the menu. This platform allows for seamless automation without needing any coding skills.

Once on the Pabbly Connect page, you can sign up for a free account or log in if you already have one. After signing in, navigate to the dashboard to create a new workflow that will facilitate the integration between Cognito Forms and Constant Contact.


2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect

In the Pabbly Connect dashboard, click on the plus sign to create a new workflow. Name your workflow something descriptive, like ‘Cognito Forms to Constant Contact Integration.’ This helps you identify the workflow later on. using Pabbly Connect

Now, you will see a trigger and action window. The trigger is the event that starts the automation, while the action is what happens as a result. For this integration, select Cognito Forms as the trigger application and choose the event as ‘New Entry.’ This means that when a new form submission occurs, it will trigger the action to add a user in Constant Contact.


3. Setting Up Cognito Forms for Submission

Next, log into your Cognito Forms account. Open the form you want to use for this integration. Ensure that your form includes necessary fields such as name, email, and any other relevant details. This information will be used to create a new contact in Constant Contact. using Pabbly Connect

In the submission settings of your Cognito form, activate the option to post JSON data to a website. You will need to copy the webhook URL provided by Pabbly Connect and paste it into the ‘Submit Entry Endpoint’ field in Cognito Forms. After saving these settings, your form is now set up to send data to Pabbly Connect upon submission.


4. Adding User to Constant Contact via Pabbly Connect

Once your Cognito form is correctly set up, return to Pabbly Connect. The platform will be waiting for a response from your form submission. To test this, fill out the form with sample data. After submission, Pabbly Connect will capture this data as a new entry.

Now, proceed to the action step in Pabbly Connect. Select Constant Contact as the action application and choose the action event as ‘Create Contact.’ Connect your Constant Contact account by allowing Pabbly Connect the necessary permissions. Once connected, select the appropriate list in Constant Contact where the new contact should be added.


5. Mapping Fields and Testing the Integration

In the mapping section of Pabbly Connect, you will need to link the fields from the Cognito form submission to the corresponding fields in Constant Contact. This includes mapping the email address, first name, last name, and any other relevant details. Ensure that each field is correctly linked to capture all necessary information. using Pabbly Connect

  • Map the email address from Cognito Forms to Constant Contact.
  • Select the first name and last name fields accordingly.
  • Ensure job title and company name are also mapped.

After mapping the fields, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to verify that a new contact is created in Constant Contact. Check your Constant Contact account to confirm that the new user has been successfully added to the specified list.
