3. Configuring Google Sheets with Pabbly Connect

Now that you have set up Pabbly Connect, it’s time to configure your Google Sheets. You need to install the Pabbly Connect Webhooks add-on to your Google Sheets. This will allow you to send data from your spreadsheet to Pabbly Connect.

• Open your Google Sheets and click on ‘Extensions’.

• Search for ‘Pabbly Connect Webhooks’ and install it.

After installation, refresh your Google Sheets to see the Pabbly Connect Webhooks option. Click on it and choose ‘Initial Setup’. Paste the webhook URL provided by Pabbly Connect into the designated field, and set your trigger column (for example, column D). This setup ensures that whenever you add data to this column, it will be sent to Pabbly Connect.

4. Creating Contacts in Google Contacts

With your Google Sheets configured, you can now set up the action to create contacts in Google Contacts using Pabbly Connect. In your workflow, click on ‘Add New Action Step’ and select Google Contacts as the application. Choose the event ‘Create Contact’.

Map the first name and last name from your spreadsheet. For email, map it to the work email field. Map the phone number to the work phone number field.

After mapping all necessary fields, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’. This will create a new contact in your Google Contacts, verifying that the integration through Pabbly Connect is working correctly.

5. Adding Multiple Contacts at Once

To add multiple contacts at once, return to your Google Sheets and click on the Pabbly Connect Webhooks option again. This time, select ‘Send All Data’. This action will trigger Pabbly Connect to process all entries in your spreadsheet and create multiple contacts in Google Contacts simultaneously.

Once you click ‘Send All Data’, all the contact information will be sent to Pabbly Connect, which will then create the corresponding contacts in Google Contacts. After the process is complete, refresh your Google Contacts to see all the new entries added seamlessly.

Additionally, you can enable the ‘Send on Event’ option in the Pabbly Connect Webhooks settings to ensure that new contacts are automatically added every time you update your Google Sheets.
