Pabbly Connect is an automation tool that enables you to set up workflows between different applications without any coding skills. By using Pabbly Connect, you can ensure that every new record added in Airtable automatically creates a contact in your GoHighLevel account.


2. Setting Up Pabbly Connect for Airtable and GoHighLevel

To begin, access Pabbly Connect by visiting the Pabbly website and navigating to the Pabbly Connect section. If you’re a new user, you can sign up for free and get started with 100 tasks every month.

  • Go to the Pabbly Connect dashboard and click on the plus sign to create a new workflow.
  • Name your workflow, for example, ‘Airtable to GoHighLevel Integration’.
  • Select Airtable as the trigger application.

After setting up the trigger, you will need to connect your Airtable account to Pabbly Connect using your API key. This allows Pabbly Connect to access your Airtable data and monitor for new records.


3. Configuring the Airtable Trigger in Pabbly Connect

Once your Airtable account is connected to Pabbly Connect, you need to specify the trigger event. Choose the ‘New Record’ event to ensure that whenever a new record is added to your Airtable base, Pabbly Connect will capture it.

Make sure to select the appropriate base and table from your Airtable account. It’s crucial to have a field named ‘Created’ of type ‘Created Time’ in your Airtable schema to allow Pabbly Connect to function correctly.

  • Select the base that contains your customer data.
  • Ensure that the ‘Created’ field is correctly set up in your table.
  • Click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to capture the latest record.

This step will confirm that Pabbly Connect is successfully capturing data from Airtable.


4. Creating a Contact in GoHighLevel Using Pabbly Connect

After successfully capturing data from Airtable, the next step involves using Pabbly Connect to create a new contact in GoHighLevel. Select GoHighLevel as the action application and choose the ‘Create Contact’ action event.

Connect your GoHighLevel account to Pabbly Connect using the API key found in your GoHighLevel settings. Once connected, you will need to map the fields from Airtable to GoHighLevel, such as first name, last name, email, and phone number.

Map the first name and last name from Airtable to the corresponding fields in GoHighLevel. Include the email address and phone number in the mapping. Leave any optional fields blank if not needed.

After mapping, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to create the contact in GoHighLevel. You should see the new contact appear in your GoHighLevel account shortly after.


5. Testing the Integration Between Airtable and GoHighLevel

To ensure everything is functioning properly, test your integration by adding a new record in Airtable. Once you input the details and save the record, Pabbly Connect will work in the background to create a new contact in GoHighLevel.

Check your GoHighLevel account to see if the new contact appears. Remember that the trigger is polling based, so it may take a few minutes for the contact to show up. If the contact does not appear immediately, give it some time before refreshing your GoHighLevel account.

By following these steps, you will have successfully automated the process of creating contacts in GoHighLevel from Airtable using Pabbly Connect. This integration not only saves time but also streamlines your customer management workflow.
