3. Creating Coupons in WooCommerce via Pabbly Connect

Once you have integrated Excel, the next step is to connect WooCommerce with Pabbly Connect. This allows you to create coupon codes automatically based on the new customer data captured from Excel.

To do this, select WooCommerce as the action application in Pabbly Connect. You will need to input your WooCommerce store’s consumer key, consumer secret, and website URL. Navigate to your WooCommerce settings, find the API section, and generate these keys if you haven’t done so already.
