In this section, we will set up the trigger for our workflow using Pabbly Connect. Select Cashfree as the trigger application. Then, choose the trigger event as ‘New Payment via Form’. This event will initiate the workflow whenever a new payment is received.
Upon selecting the trigger event, Pabbly Connect will provide a webhook URL. Copy this URL, as it will be used to set up the connection in your Cashfree account. Log into your Cashfree account, navigate to the developers section, and find the webhooks under the payment gateway settings.

Next, we will capture the customer details from the payment made through Cashfree. In Pabbly Connect, click on ‘Recapture Webhook Response’ to test the integration. Enter the customer details as they would appear during a real transaction.
For example, enter the name, email, and phone number of the customer making the payment. After submitting the payment, return to Pabbly Connect to see the captured response. This response will include the customer’s name, email, phone number, and order amount, which will be used to create a new contact in Xero.

If you have not yet connected your Xero account, click on ‘Add a New Connection’ and authorize Pabbly Connect to access your Xero account. Once authorized, select your organization from the dropdown list.
Next, map the fields from the Cashfree response to the Xero contact fields. For example, map the customer name to the contact name in Xero, and also map the email and phone number. Once all the necessary fields are mapped, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to create the contact.
