After signing in, navigate to the Pabbly Connect app. Here, you can manage your workflows. To create a new workflow, click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button. Select the new beta builder for a more modern experience, and name your workflow ‘Automatically Send Instagram Leads to Salesforce CRM’ before clicking on ‘Create’.

2. Setting Up Instagram Lead Ads as the Trigger

In this section, you will set up Instagram Lead Ads as the trigger in Pabbly Connect. A trigger is an event that starts your automation. Click on the trigger application and select Instagram Lead Ads. Then, choose the trigger event as ‘New Lead Instant’ and click on ‘Connect’.

• If you have an existing connection, select ‘Save’.
• If not, click ‘Add New Connection’ and log in to your Instagram account.
• Select the Facebook page associated with your Instagram account.

Once connected, you will need to select the lead form associated with your Instagram page. Navigate to the Meta for Developers page to get your lead form. After selecting the form, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to verify the connection.

3. Testing the Integration with a Test Lead

Now, it’s time to test the integration in Pabbly Connect. After saving the test request, the workflow will change to waiting for a webhook response. You will need to submit a test lead to capture this response. Use the lead ads testing tool on Meta to create a test lead.

• Select the page and lead form you previously set up.
• Click ‘Create Lead’ to send the test data.

Check your workflow in Pabbly Connect to see if the details have been captured successfully. If the data appears, it confirms that your trigger setup is working correctly.

4. Adding Salesforce as the Action Application

Next, you will set up Salesforce as the action application in Pabbly Connect. Click on ‘Add New Action Step’ and search for Salesforce. Select the action event as ‘Create Contact’ and click on ‘Connect’. If you already have a connection, you can save it; otherwise, create a new connection.

After connecting to Salesforce, you will map the fields from your Instagram lead ads to the Salesforce contact fields. This is crucial for ensuring that the data is transferred correctly. Use the mapping feature to dynamically input the first name, last name, email address, and phone number from the lead data.

5. Finalizing the Integration and Creating Contacts

To finalize your integration in Pabbly Connect, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ after mapping the fields. This will create a contact in Salesforce based on the test lead data. You will receive a contact ID confirming that the lead has been successfully added to your Salesforce account.

To review the created contact, navigate to your Salesforce contacts. You should see the new contact with the details you mapped earlier. This confirms that your automation is working seamlessly, capturing leads from Instagram and sending them directly to Salesforce CRM.
