2. Creating a New Workflow in Pabbly Connect
In this section, you will create a new workflow in Pabbly Connect to manage lead submissions. Click on the “Create New Workflow” button, and name it “Automatically Send New Leads to WhatsApp and CRM”. Select a folder for organization, such as “Forms Automation”.
- Click on “Create” to initiate your workflow.

Map the fields from the webhook response to the corresponding fields in Salesforce, such as first name, last name, email, and phone number. This mapping is crucial as it ensures that every new lead is correctly added to your CRM without manual entry.
