1. Setting Up Pabbly Connect for Automation

To automate the process of saving Pabbly Form Builder data to Airtable, you first need to set up Pabbly Connect. Begin by logging into your Pabbly Connect account and navigating to the dashboard. If you don’t have an account yet, you can create one quickly and get access to 100 free automation tasks every month.

Once logged in, click on the Create Workflow button. You will be prompted to name your workflow. For example, you can name it ‘Add Pabbly Form Builder Responses to Airtable Automatically’. After naming your workflow, click on the Create button to proceed.

2. Trigger Setup with Pabbly Form Builder

In this step, you will set up the trigger for your workflow using Pabbly Form Builder. Select Pabbly Form Builder from the Choose App dropdown and choose the trigger event as New Form Submission. This action will provide you with a webhook URL that is essential for fetching data from the form.

• Select Pabbly Form Builder as the app.
• Choose New Form Submission as the trigger event.
• Copy the webhook URL provided.

With this webhook URL, you will now connect to your Pabbly Form Builder. Navigate to your Pabbly Form Builder dashboard, click on Integrations, select your form, and create a webhook by pasting the copied URL. Click on Save to finalize this setup.

3. Capturing Form Data in Pabbly Connect

After setting up the webhook, you need to capture the form data in Pabbly Connect. Click on the Recapture Web Response button in your workflow and confirm by clicking Yes. This action will put Pabbly Connect in a waiting state for a test submission from your form.

Now, fill out the form as a test submission. For instance, enter a name, email, and phone number, then submit the form. Once submitted, return to Pabbly Connect to see if the data has been captured successfully. You should see the response in the Responses Received section.

4. Action Setup with Airtable

Next, you will set up the action in your workflow to send the captured data to Airtable. In the action step, select Airtable as the app and choose the action event as Create Record. Click on Connect to establish a connection with Airtable.

• Select Airtable as the action app.
• Choose Create Record as the action event.
• Enter your Airtable API key to connect.

After connecting, you will be prompted to select the base and table where you want to save the data. Choose the correct base and table, then map the fields from your form response to the corresponding fields in Airtable. Finally, click on Save and Send Test Request to verify the connection.

5. Testing and Confirming Integration

Now that everything is set up, it’s time to test the integration. Go back to your form and submit another test entry. After submitting, check your Airtable base to confirm that the data appears correctly. You should see the new record reflecting the information from the form submission.

This automation will now run automatically, saving you time and effort. You only need to set this up once, and from then on, every new form submission will be added to Airtable automatically through Pabbly Connect.
