To automate posting real estate property images on social media, first access Pabbly Connect. This platform allows seamless integration between Google Sheets and Facebook.

Start by visiting the Pabbly Connect dashboard. Sign up for a free account by clicking on the ‘Sign Up Free’ button, which takes just two minutes. Once registered, log into your account and create a new workflow by clicking on the ‘Create Workflow’ button.

2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect

In this section, you will create a workflow that connects Google Sheets to Facebook using Pabbly Connect. Name your workflow something descriptive, like ‘Google Sheets to Facebook Automation’ and click on the ‘Create’ button.

Now, you need to set up the trigger and action for your workflow. The trigger will be the addition of new data in Google Sheets, while the action will be posting that data on Facebook. This setup is crucial for the automation process.

• Select Google Sheets as the trigger application.
• Choose the trigger event as ‘New or Updated Spreadsheet Row’.
• Copy the generated Webhook URL for later use.

After setting up the trigger, you will capture the data from Google Sheets in Pabbly Connect, which is essential for the automation to function correctly.

3. Integrating Google Sheets with Pabbly Connect

To integrate Google Sheets with Pabbly Connect, open your Google Sheets and install the Pabbly Connect Webhooks add-on. Click on ‘Extensions’, then ‘Add-ons’, and search for ‘Pabbly Connect Webhooks’. Install this add-on to enable the connection.

After installation, refresh your Google Sheets. Navigate back to ‘Extensions’, find the Pabbly Connect Webhooks option, and select ‘Initial Setup’. Here, paste the Webhook URL you copied earlier and specify the trigger column, which is the last column where data will be entered.

• In the Webhook URL field, paste the copied URL.
• Set the trigger column to the last data entry column in your sheet.

After setting this up, click on ‘Send Test’ to ensure the connection works correctly. You should see a confirmation that test data was sent successfully to Pabbly Connect.

4. Connecting Facebook to Pabbly Connect

Next, to complete the automation, connect Facebook to Pabbly Connect. In your workflow, select Facebook as the action application and choose ‘Create Page Photo’ as the action event.

Click ‘Connect’ and log into your Facebook account if prompted. Select the appropriate Facebook page where you want the posts to appear. This connection allows Pabbly Connect to post images directly to your Facebook page.

Map the photo URL from Google Sheets to the photo field in Facebook. Set the description for the post using data from your spreadsheet.

After mapping the required fields, click ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to create a test post. Verify that the post appears on your Facebook page, confirming the automation is functioning as expected.
