1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Integration

To automatically post Telegram messages from Google Sheets, you first need to access Pabbly Connect. Open a new tab in your browser and visit www.pabbly.com/connect. This platform allows seamless integration between Google Sheets and Telegram.

If you are a new user, you can sign up for free and get 100 tasks every month. This allows you to test the integration without any cost. Once logged in, you will be directed to the Pabbly Connect dashboard, where you can create your workflow.

2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect

To set up the integration, click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button within Pabbly Connect. Use the quick builder to create a new workflow by entering your request. Type in “Connect Google Sheets to Telegram” to initiate the process.

  • Click on ‘Create’ to finalize your workflow.
  • You will see a trigger option for Google Sheets.
  • Select ‘New Updated Spreadsheet Row’ to capture data.

This setup allows Pabbly Connect to monitor your Google Sheets for any new entries. You will receive a webhook URL that will be used to connect Google Sheets to the platform.

3. Setting Up Google Sheets with Pabbly Connect

After obtaining the webhook URL from Pabbly Connect, open your Google Sheets. Go to Extensions > Add-ons > Get Add-ons and search for “Pabbly Connect Webhooks” to install it.

Once installed, refresh your Google Sheets, then navigate to Extensions > Pabbly Webhooks > Initial Setup. Paste the webhook URL you copied earlier and set your trigger column (e.g., Column B) where the data will be entered.

  • Enter your final data in Column B.
  • Click ‘Submit’ to confirm the setup.
  • Select ‘Send on Event’ to enable automatic data transfer.

By completing these steps, your Google Sheets will now be connected to Pabbly Connect, allowing it to send data to Telegram automatically whenever new entries are added.

4. Configuring Telegram Bot for Message Sending

Next, you need to set up a Telegram bot to send messages. In Pabbly Connect, select the action event as “Telegram Bot: Send a Text Message or Reply”. To connect your bot, you will need a token that you can obtain by creating a new bot in Telegram.

To create a bot, search for “BotFather” in your Telegram app and follow the instructions to create a new bot. After creating it, you will receive a token. Copy this token and paste it into Pabbly Connect to establish the connection.

  • Add the bot as an admin in your Telegram group.
  • Capture the chat ID from the group URL.
  • Map the data fields from Google Sheets to the message format.

After completing these steps, your Telegram bot will be ready to send messages based on new entries in Google Sheets through Pabbly Connect.

5. Testing the Integration

To verify the integration between Google Sheets and Telegram, enter a new teacher’s name and message in your spreadsheet. As soon as you input this information, Pabbly Connect will capture the data and send it to your Telegram group.

Check your Telegram group for a new message notification. You should see the message formatted as specified, indicating that the integration is working successfully. This allows for real-time notifications based on your Google Sheets entries.

With this setup, you can automate various notifications, making it easier to manage communications within your group. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out for assistance with your Pabbly Connect setup.
