2. Creating Your Automation Workflow in Pabbly Connect

In the workflow creation process, name your workflow ‘Automate Smarter Not Harder with Pabbly Connect’. After naming, select the appropriate folder for organization. Click on the ‘Create’ button to officially create your workflow.

The next crucial step is setting up the trigger, which defines when your automation will start. For this integration, choose ‘Facebook Leads Ads’ as your trigger application. After selecting the app, pick the event ‘New Lead Instant’ and click on the ‘Connect’ button.

• Select the app event as New Lead Instant.
• Click on the Add New Connection option.
• Connect to Facebook Leads Ads by logging into your Facebook account.

Once connected, select the Facebook page and lead generation form you wish to use. This setup allows Pabbly Connect to listen for new leads submitted through your Facebook lead ads.

3. Testing the Facebook Leads Ads Integration with Pabbly Connect

To test the integration, click on the ‘Save and Send Test Request’ button in Pabbly Connect. This action will wait for a webhook response. Open a new tab and log into your Meta Developer account to retrieve the lead data.

In the Meta Developer tools, navigate to the ‘Lead Ads RTU Debug Tool’. Select your Facebook page and the lead generation form. Fill in the test details, then submit the form. After submission, return to Pabbly Connect to check if the response has been received.

• Enter test lead details in the form.
• Submit the form to trigger the webhook.
• Verify that the lead data appears in Pabbly Connect.

If the lead data appears successfully, the integration is working as intended. This demonstrates how Pabbly Connect facilitates the automation of lead management from Facebook to your CRM.

4. Integrating Zoho CRM with Pabbly Connect

After confirming the Facebook Leads Ads integration, the next step is to set up the action application, which will be Zoho CRM. Click on the plus icon to add a new action and search for ‘Zoho CRM’. Choose the ‘Create Contact’ event and click on the ‘Connect’ button.

For connecting Zoho CRM, you will need to add a new connection. Enter your Zoho domain, typically zoho.com, and click the ‘Save’ button. Grant permission to Pabbly Connect to access your Zoho account.

Select ‘Create Contact’ as the app event. Map the fields from the Facebook lead to Zoho CRM. Click ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to verify the integration.

Mapping is crucial as it ensures that the data from Facebook is correctly populated in Zoho CRM. Once you save the test request, check your Zoho CRM account to confirm that the new contact has been created successfully.

5. Finalizing Your Automation Workflow with Pabbly Connect

With the integration set up, make sure to enable the toggle switch in Pabbly Connect to activate your workflow. If the toggle is not enabled, the automation will not function. This final step is essential to ensure that your leads are captured in real-time.

Now, whenever a new lead submits their information through your Facebook lead ads, a new contact will be automatically created in your Zoho CRM. This powerful automation eliminates the need for manual data entry, saving you time and reducing errors.

In summary, using Pabbly Connect for this integration allows you to streamline your lead management process efficiently. The automation you have set up ensures that every lead from Facebook is captured accurately in your CRM without any manual effort.
