2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect

Once you are logged into Pabbly Connect, navigate to the dashboard and click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button. You will be prompted to choose a workflow builder. Select the ‘Beta’ workflow builder for a modern and flexible experience.

• Click on the ‘Select’ button after choosing the Beta builder.
• Name your workflow, for example, ‘Send Survey Details from Google Sheets to ActiveCampaign’.
• Select a folder for your workflow and click on the ‘Create’ button.

After creating the workflow, you will see a prompt indicating that the workflow was created successfully. Now, you can begin adding triggers and actions to automate the process.

3. Setting Up Google Sheets as a Trigger

Next, set up Google Sheets as the trigger application in Pabbly Connect. Click on the ‘Add Trigger’ button and search for Google Sheets. Select it as your trigger app.

For the event, choose ‘New or Updated Row’. Click on the ‘Connect’ button to build the connection. You will be provided with a webhook URL that you need to paste into Google Sheets to establish the link between the two applications.

• Go to your Google Sheets, click on ‘Extensions’, and then select ‘Add-ons’.
• Search for the Pabbly Connect Webhook and install it.
• After installation, select the Pabbly Connect Webhook option and set up the initial configuration by pasting the webhook URL.

Finally, specify the trigger column (which is usually the last column containing data) and submit the setup. You can now send test data to ensure the connection is working properly.

4. Configuring ActiveCampaign as the Action Step

After successfully setting up Google Sheets, the next step is to configure ActiveCampaign as the action application in Pabbly Connect. Click on the ‘Add New Action Step’ button and search for ActiveCampaign. Select it as your action app.

For the action event, choose ‘Create a Contact’. Click on the ‘Connect’ button to establish the connection. You will need to input your ActiveCampaign API URL and key, which you can find in your ActiveCampaign account settings under the ‘Developers’ section.

Copy the API URL without the protocol and paste it into Pabbly Connect. Copy the API key from ActiveCampaign and paste it into Pabbly Connect. Click ‘Save’ to finalize the connection.

Now you can map the fields from Google Sheets to ActiveCampaign, ensuring that all relevant data is transferred correctly.

5. Testing the Integration for Success

The final step is to test the integration between Google Sheets and ActiveCampaign using Pabbly Connect. After mapping all necessary fields, click on the ‘Save and Send Test Request’ button to send a test contact to ActiveCampaign.

Check your ActiveCampaign account to verify that the contact was created successfully with the details from Google Sheets. You should see the new contact listed with the information you provided in the survey form.

This successful integration allows you to automate the process of sending survey results from Google Sheets directly to ActiveCampaign, enabling targeted follow-ups with ease.
