1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for SMS Automation

To start automating SMS notifications, first access Pabbly Connect. Open your browser and navigate to pabbly.com/connect. This platform serves as the central hub for integrating various applications, including Google Sheets and Twilio.

Upon reaching the Pabbly Connect website, you’ll find options for signing up or signing in. New users can take advantage of a free trial, allowing them to explore the automation features without any upfront costs. Existing users can log in to their accounts to start building workflows immediately.

2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect

Once logged into Pabbly Connect, the next step is to create a workflow. Click on the “Create Workflow” button to begin. This workflow will trigger SMS notifications based on new entries in Google Sheets.

Select Google Sheets as the trigger application.
Choose the event as “New or Updated Spreadsheet Row”.
Click on the “Connect” button to generate a webhook URL.

After generating the webhook URL, copy it. This URL is essential for linking your Google Sheet with Pabbly Connect, enabling real-time data capture for SMS notifications.

3. Setting Up Google Sheets with Pabbly Connect

Now that you have the webhook URL, navigate to your Google Sheets. Here, you will set up the integration to ensure that new entries trigger SMS notifications through Pabbly Connect.

Go to “Extensions” > “Add-ons” > “Get Add-ons” and search for “Pabbly Connect Webhooks”. Install this add-on if it isn’t already installed. Once installed, go back to “Extensions” and select “Pabbly Connect Webhooks” to access the initial setup dialog box.

Paste the copied webhook URL into the dialog box.
Set the trigger column to the last data column (e.g., Column E).
Click “Submit” to complete the setup.

This configuration allows Pabbly Connect to automatically fetch data from Google Sheets whenever a new entry is made, facilitating seamless SMS notifications.

4. Sending SMS via Twilio through Pabbly Connect

With Google Sheets set up, the next step is to send SMS notifications using Twilio. In your Pabbly Connect workflow, select Twilio as the action application. This integration will allow you to send personalized SMS messages to leads.

To establish the connection, enter your Twilio Account SID and Authorization Token. These credentials can be found in your Twilio account dashboard. Once entered, click “Save” to create the connection.

Enter the body of the SMS, including dynamic fields mapped from Google Sheets.
Map the recipient’s phone number from the Google Sheets response.
Click “Save & Send Test Request” to verify the setup.

Upon successful configuration, you will see a confirmation response indicating that the SMS has been sent, demonstrating the effectiveness of Pabbly Connect in automating your communication process.
