1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Eventbrite and LinkedIn Integration

To post new Eventbrite events to LinkedIn using Pabbly Connect, first, you need to access the platform. Visit the Pabbly website and sign up for a free account if you don’t have one. If you already have an account, simply sign in using your credentials.

Once logged in, navigate to the Pabbly Connect dashboard. Click on the blue button labeled ‘Create Workflow’ in the top right corner to start creating your new automation workflow.

2. Setting Up the Trigger Event in Pabbly Connect

In the workflow setup, the first step is to define the trigger event. Select Eventbrite as your application and choose the trigger event as ‘Event Published’. This means the workflow will activate whenever a new event is published in Eventbrite.

Before connecting, ensure you have your Eventbrite account open. Click on ‘Add New Connection’ to link your Eventbrite account to Pabbly Connect. You will need to allow access to your Eventbrite account for this integration to work seamlessly.

• Select Eventbrite as the application.
• Choose ‘Event Published’ as the trigger event.
• Click ‘Add New Connection’ to connect your Eventbrite account.

Once connected, save the settings and proceed to create an event in your Eventbrite account. This event data will be used in the next steps of the automation.

3. Creating an Event in Eventbrite

Now that your trigger is set, it’s time to create an event in Eventbrite. Click on ‘Create an Event’ and fill in the necessary details such as event name, type, category, and tags. For example, if you’re hosting a music festival, you might name it ‘Music Festival’ and categorize it under ‘Social Gathering’.

Make sure to include relevant tags to help categorize your event effectively. After entering the basic details, set the location, date, and time for the event. Once all details are filled in, click on ‘Save and Continue’ to finalize the event creation.

• Enter event name (e.g., Music Festival).
• Select event type and category.
• Set event date and time.

After saving your event, make sure to publish it. This action will trigger the workflow you set up in Pabbly Connect.

4. Retrieving Event Details for LinkedIn Post

Once the event is published, Pabbly Connect will capture the event details. You will need to extract specific information such as the event ID using the Text Formatter feature. This allows you to parse the necessary information from the Eventbrite URL.

Connect the Text Formatter in Pabbly Connect and configure it to extract the event ID from the URL. This ID will be crucial for retrieving detailed information about the event in the next step.

After extracting the ID, use the Eventbrite application again to fetch the complete details of the event using the ID you just retrieved. This will ensure that all relevant information is available for posting on LinkedIn.

5. Posting the Event to LinkedIn

The final step involves posting the event details to LinkedIn. Select LinkedIn as the action application in Pabbly Connect and choose the action event as ‘Share an Article or URL’. This is where you will map the event details you retrieved earlier.

Connect your LinkedIn account to Pabbly Connect and fill in the required fields, including the event title, description, and URL. Ensure that the visibility is set to Pabbly so that your connections can view the post.

After mapping all the necessary information, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’. Verify that the post appears on your LinkedIn account, showcasing the new Eventbrite event effectively.
