3. Setting Up the Trigger Application in Pabbly Connect

The next step involves setting up the trigger application in Pabbly Connect. You will select Facebook Lead Ads as your trigger application. This means that every time a new lead is generated, it will trigger the workflow.

In the trigger event dropdown, choose New Lead Instant and click Connect. If you don’t have an existing connection, select Add New Connection and log in to your Facebook account to authorize the connection.

After successful connection, you will need to specify your Facebook Page and Lead Form. Navigate to your Facebook account to find the page you are using for lead generation, such as Prime Properties, and select the corresponding lead form.


4. Testing the Trigger with a Lead Submission

Now that the trigger is set up, it’s time to test it using Pabbly Connect. Click on Save and Send Test Request to initiate the process. This will change the status to Waiting for Webhook Response.

To capture this response, you need to submit a test lead using the Facebook Lead Ads testing tool. Ensure that you refresh the page and select the correct page and lead form before submitting the lead details.

  • Enter property type, full name, phone number, email, and city.
  • Click Continue and then Submit.

After submission, check your workflow in Pabbly Connect to see if the details have been captured successfully, confirming that the connection is working.


5. Sending WhatsApp Messages via Pabbly Connect

With the trigger successfully tested, you can now set up the action application to send WhatsApp messages. In Pabbly Connect, click on Add New Action Step and select Pabbly Chatflow as your action application.

Choose the action event as Send Template Message and connect using your existing connection or create a new one by entering your API token from Pabbly Chatflow.

Map the recipient’s mobile number from the lead details captured earlier. Select the template you created in Pabbly Chatflow for sending the WhatsApp message. Click Save and Send Request to finalize the action.

Upon successful execution, you will receive a WhatsApp message confirming the automated process, demonstrating how Pabbly Connect effectively integrates Facebook Lead Ads with WhatsApp messaging.
