To create a new workflow in Pabbly Connect, click the ‘Create Workflow’ button. You will have the option to select between the new beta version or the classic version. For this tutorial, choose the beta version for its modern features. Name your workflow ‘Track New Sales in Google Chat Automatically’ and select a folder to organize it.

• Click on ‘Create’ to finalize the workflow.
• Understand the principles of automation: triggers and actions.
• Set your trigger as Shopify and the event as New Order.

By setting up this workflow, Pabbly Connect enables you to automate notifications every time a new sale is made on Shopify, ensuring your sales team stays informed in real-time.

3. Connecting Shopify to Pabbly Connect

To connect Shopify to Pabbly Connect, you will receive a webhook URL after selecting the New Order event. Copy this URL and head to your Shopify account. In Shopify, navigate to ‘Settings’ and select ‘Notifications’. Then, go to ‘Webhooks’ and create a new webhook.

• Set the event to ‘Order Creation’.
• Choose JSON as the format.
• Paste the copied webhook URL from Pabbly Connect.
• Save the webhook settings.

This connection allows Pabbly Connect to receive data whenever a new order is created in your Shopify store, facilitating automatic notifications to your Google Chat.

4. Setting Up Google Chat Integration

Next, you need to set up Google Chat as an action in your Pabbly Connect workflow. Select Google Chat as the application for the action and choose ‘Create Message’ as the event. To proceed, you will need to connect your Google Chat account.

In this step, you will create a webhook in Google Chat to send messages. Navigate to your Google Chat space, select the space you want to send alerts to, and click on ‘Apps and Integrations’. Here, you can add a new webhook and name it appropriately.

Copy the webhook URL generated after saving. Map the message content dynamically using data from the trigger step.

By using Pabbly Connect, you ensure that every new sale triggers an alert message in Google Chat, keeping your team updated on sales activity.

5. Testing the Integration

After setting up both Shopify and Google Chat in Pabbly Connect, it’s time to test your integration. Place a test order in your Shopify store to generate a new sale. This action should trigger the webhook, sending the order details to your Google Chat.

Once the order is placed, return to your Pabbly Connect dashboard to check if the data was received successfully. You should see the order details reflected in your Google Chat space as a new message alerting your team of the sale.

This successful execution confirms that Pabbly Connect is effectively automating communication between your Shopify store and Google Chat, streamlining your sales tracking process.
