1. Setting Up Pabbly Connect for WhatsApp Alerts

To start automating WhatsApp alerts for Wi-Fi subscription expiration, you need to set up Pabbly Connect. First, visit the Pabbly website and create a free account. This will allow you to access the dashboard where you can create your automation workflow.

Once logged in, click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button. Name your workflow something descriptive, like ‘Send Subscription Expiration Alert on WhatsApp’. This step is crucial as it sets the foundation for your integration process using Pabbly Connect.

2. Configuring the Trigger in Pabbly Connect

The next step involves setting up the trigger, which will initiate the automation. In this case, you will use the Scheduler feature in Pabbly Connect. This feature allows you to run your workflow daily.

• Select the Scheduler as your trigger event.
• Set the frequency to ‘Daily’.
• Choose the appropriate time zone and the time you wish to run the workflow.

After configuring these settings, click ‘Save’. Your workflow will now check the Google Sheets data every day at the specified time, using Pabbly Connect to facilitate this automation.

3. Connecting Google Sheets to Pabbly Connect

Now that your trigger is set, the next step is to connect your Google Sheets, where you maintain customer subscription data. In the action step, select Google Sheets from the application list.

• Choose the action event as ‘Get Rows’ to retrieve customer data.
• Connect your Google account and grant necessary permissions.
• Select the spreadsheet containing the subscription data.

With this setup, Pabbly Connect will fetch the data from your Google Sheets, allowing the workflow to access customer details and subscription expiration dates.

4. Sending WhatsApp Alerts Using Pabbly Connect

After retrieving the necessary data, the next step is to send WhatsApp alerts. For this, you will use the WhatsApp Cloud API integrated within Pabbly Connect. This allows you to send automated messages directly to your customers.

Select the WhatsApp Cloud API as the action application. Choose ‘Send Template Message’ as the action event. Map the required parameters, including the recipient’s number and message template.

Once configured, Pabbly Connect will automatically send messages to customers whose subscriptions are expiring, ensuring timely notifications.

5. Finalizing Your Automation Setup

With all components set up, it’s time to finalize your automation. Click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to check if everything is working correctly. This will send a test message to verify your setup.

After confirming that the test message has been received, your automation is complete. You can now sit back and let Pabbly Connect handle the notifications for subscription expirations automatically.

Remember, this setup only needs to be done once, and from then on, Pabbly Connect will run the workflow daily, sending WhatsApp alerts as needed.

Conclusion

In conclusion, using Pabbly Connect to automate WhatsApp alerts for Wi-Fi subscription expiration is a straightforward process. By following these steps, you can ensure that your customers are notified promptly, enhancing their experience and encouraging timely renewals.
