1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Integration

To start integrating Google Forms with Kit, first access Pabbly Connect by visiting the Pabbly website. Simply type paby.com in your browser’s address bar. This is the central platform for managing your integrations.

Once on the Pabbly site, sign in to your account. You can either click on “Sign In” if you are an existing user or select “Sign Up for Free” to create a new account. New users get 100 free tasks monthly to explore the features of Pabbly Connect.

2. Creating a New Workflow in Pabbly Connect

After logging into Pabbly Connect, navigate to the dashboard where you can manage your workflows. Click on “Create Workflow” to initiate a new workflow for integrating Google Forms with Kit.

  • Name your workflow, for example, “Automatically Add Google Forms Leads to Kit”.
  • Select a folder for organization, such as “Forms Automation”.
  • Click on “Create” to finalize your new workflow.

Once the workflow is created, you will see a prompt to set up your trigger application. This is where you will specify Google Forms as the trigger app for your workflow.

3. Setting Up Google Forms as the Trigger

In your newly created workflow, select Google Forms as the trigger application in Pabbly Connect. The trigger event to choose is “New Response Received”. This event will initiate the workflow whenever a new form submission occurs.

Click on “Connect” to establish a connection between Pabbly Connect and Google Forms. A webhook URL will be generated, which acts as a bridge between the two applications. Copy this URL to use in your Google Forms setup.

Next, open your Google Forms and navigate to the form you created for this integration. Make sure to set the required fields and link the form responses to a Google Sheets document. This will ensure that the data is properly captured and can be sent to Pabbly Connect.

4. Configuring Google Sheets for Data Submission

Once your Google Forms are set up, you need to ensure that the responses are being collected in a Google Sheets document. Access the responses tab in your Google Forms and click on “View in Sheets” to open the linked spreadsheet.

To connect Google Sheets to Pabbly Connect, you will need to install the Pabbly Webhooks add-on. Go to Extensions > Add-ons > Get add-ons, and search for “Pabbly Webhooks” to install it. After installation, refresh your Google Sheets to see the new add-on options.

  • Open the Pabbly Webhooks add-on and select “Initial Setup”.
  • Paste the copied webhook URL into the designated field.
  • Set the trigger column, typically the last column where data will be entered.

After configuring these settings, click on “Send Test” to verify the connection. You should see a successful response in your Pabbly Connect dashboard, indicating that the setup is working properly.

5. Adding Kit as the Action Application

With Google Forms and Sheets set up, it’s time to add Kit as the action application in your Pabbly Connect workflow. Click on “Add New Action Step” and search for Kit V4.

Select “Insert or Update Subscriber by Email” as the action event and click on “Connect”. If you have an existing connection, you can choose to save it, or create a new connection by granting access to Pabbly Connect to manage your Kit account.

Map the fields from Google Forms to the Kit fields. For example, enter the email address and first name using the mapped data from your Google Sheets. Once everything is set, click on “Save and Send Test”. You should see a confirmation that the subscriber has been successfully created in Kit.
