1. Setting Up Pabbly Connect for Auto Posting

To begin using Pabbly Connect for auto posting properties to Facebook, start by visiting the Pabbly Connect website. Here, you can either sign in or create a new account. If you are a new user, click on the ‘Sign Up Free’ button to create your account, which provides 100 free tasks every month.

After signing in, navigate to the dashboard and click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button. You will be prompted to choose between the new beta version or the classic version of the workflow builder. For this tutorial, select the new beta version, and name your workflow, for example, ‘Auto Facebook Property Posting.’ Then, select a folder to save your workflow and click the ‘Create’ button.

2. Connecting Google Sheets to Pabbly Connect

In this step, you will set Google Sheets as the trigger application in Pabbly Connect. Choose Google Sheets and select the event as ‘New or Updated Spreadsheet Row.’ This will trigger the workflow whenever a new row is added to your sheet.

• Select Google Sheets as the trigger application.
• Choose ‘New or Updated Spreadsheet Row’ as the event.
• Click on the ‘Connect’ button to establish the connection.

Once you click the connect button, a webhook URL will be generated. Copy this URL and head over to your Google Sheets. In the Google Sheets menu, go to Extensions, then Add-ons, and select ‘Get Add-ons’. Search for the Pabbly Connect Webhook and install it. After installation, go to Extensions again, select Pabbly Connect Webhook, and click on ‘Initial Setup’ to paste the webhook URL.

3. Generating Facebook Post Content Using Open AI

Now that Google Sheets is connected to Pabbly Connect, the next step is to generate the content for your Facebook post. Click on the plus button to add an action application, and search for Open AI. Select the ‘Create Content’ action event.

To establish a connection between Open AI and Pabbly Connect, click on the connect button and input your Open AI token. After successfully connecting, select the AI model you wish to use, such as GPT-5.2. In the prompt box, input your requirements for the Facebook post, mapping the relevant details from your Google Sheet.

• Map the title, location, type, price, and description from Google Sheets.
• Add a static prompt for creating an attractive Facebook post.
• Click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to generate the post content.

After the test request, you will receive a response with the post content, which can be used in the next action step.

4. Posting the Content to Facebook

With the content generated, the next action is to post it to Facebook using Pabbly Connect. Click on the plus button again and search for Facebook Pages. Select ‘Create Page Photo Post’ as the action event.

Click the connect button to establish the connection with your Facebook account. You will be prompted to log in and authorize Pabbly Connect to manage your Facebook pages. Once connected, select the page where you want to post your property listing and map the photo URL and description received from the Open AI step.

Map the photo URL from Google Sheets. Map the description generated by Open AI. Click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to publish the post.

After the test request, check your Facebook page to confirm that the post has been created successfully. Refresh the page to see your new property listing.

5. Adding a Filter to Control Post Creation

Finally, to ensure that posts are only created when the status is set to ‘new’ in your Google Sheet, you can add a filter in Pabbly Connect. Click on the plus button to add a filter application.

Set the filter value to check if the status equals ‘new.’ This means that only rows marked as new will trigger the Facebook post creation. After setting up the filter, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to confirm the filter works correctly.

With this filter in place, your workflow is now complete. Whenever a new row is added to your Google Sheet with the status set to ‘new,’ Pabbly Connect will automatically create a Facebook post for your property listing.
