3. Configuring WooCommerce Trigger in Pabbly Connect

In this section, we will set up the trigger in Pabbly Connect to capture new orders from WooCommerce. Select WooCommerce as your trigger application and choose the ‘New Order Created’ event.

Next, connect your WooCommerce account by copying the webhook URL provided by Pabbly Connect. Navigate to your WooCommerce store settings, go to the ‘Advanced’ section, and click on ‘Webhooks.’ Here, you will:

• Click on ‘Add Webhook’.
• Name the webhook (e.g., ‘New Order Created’).
• Set the status to ‘Active’ and paste the copied URL.

After saving the webhook, return to Pabbly Connect and wait for the response to confirm that the trigger is capturing new order data from WooCommerce.

4. Adding Mailchimp Action in Pabbly Connect

Once your WooCommerce trigger is set up, it’s time to configure the action to add new subscribers to Mailchimp. In Pabbly Connect, select Mailchimp as the action application and choose the ‘Add New Member with Custom Fields’ event.

To establish the connection, you will need your Mailchimp API key and data center. Here’s how to find them:

Log into your Mailchimp account and go to ‘Profile’. Navigate to ‘Extras’ and then ‘API Keys’. Create a new API key and copy it for use in Pabbly Connect.

After entering the API key and data center in Pabbly Connect, map the fields from the WooCommerce trigger to the Mailchimp action to ensure that customer details are correctly added as subscribers.

5. Testing the Integration Between WooCommerce and Mailchimp

With your workflow configured, it’s essential to test the integration to ensure everything works as expected. Place a new order on your WooCommerce store, using a test customer email and details.

Once the order is placed, return to Pabbly Connect to check if the subscriber has been added to your Mailchimp audience. Refresh the Mailchimp subscribers page to confirm that the new customer appears as a subscriber with the correct details.

This successful test indicates that your Pabbly Connect workflow is functioning correctly, allowing you to automate the process of syncing WooCommerce customers to Mailchimp seamlessly.
