1. Setting Up Pabbly Connect for Tumblr and Telegram Integration

To start sharing your Tumblr posts on Telegram automatically, the first step is to access Pabbly Connect. Log in to your Pabbly Connect account, which you can create in just two minutes by following the link in the description. Once logged in, you will arrive at the Pabbly Connect dashboard, where you can begin creating your automation workflow.

Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button to initiate the process. You will then be prompted to name your workflow; for this tutorial, we’ll name it ‘Tumblr to Telegram Automation’. After naming your workflow, click the ‘Create’ button to proceed. This sets the stage for integrating Tumblr and Telegram using Pabbly Connect.

2. Configuring the Trigger Application: Tumblr

The next step in using Pabbly Connect is to configure the trigger application, which in this case is Tumblr. In the ‘Choose App’ field, select Tumblr as your trigger application. For the trigger event, choose ‘New Post in My Blog’. This setup ensures that every time you post a new blog on Tumblr, it will trigger the automation.

• Select Tumblr from the app options.
• Choose the trigger event as New Post in My Blog.
• Click on ‘Connect’ and select ‘Add New Connection’.

After connecting, you will need to specify the type of post you are sharing. Select the appropriate post type (e.g., text, video) and the blog from which you are publishing. Finally, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to fetch the details of the most recent post. This step is crucial as it allows Pabbly Connect to capture the necessary data from Tumblr for the next part of the integration.

3. Setting Up the Action Application: Telegram

Now that the trigger is configured, it’s time to set up the action application, which is Telegram. In the action step, search for Telegram and select the ‘Telegram Bot’ option. For the action event, choose ‘Send a Text Message’. This action will allow you to send a message to your Telegram group whenever a new Tumblr post is made.

• Select Telegram Bot as the action application.
• Choose the action event as Send a Text Message.
• Connect to Telegram by adding a new connection and entering your API token.

To obtain the API token, you will need to create a Telegram bot using the BotFather. After creating the bot, copy the API token provided and paste it into Pabbly Connect. Additionally, you must provide the chat ID of your Telegram group. Once these details are entered, you can compose your message, including the link to your Tumblr post, which will be dynamically mapped from the data fetched in the earlier step. This integration is seamless and requires no coding, thanks to Pabbly Connect.

4. Finalizing the Integration and Testing

After configuring both the trigger and action applications, the next step is to finalize the integration. In the message field for Telegram, you can write a custom message like, ‘Hey folks, check out my new post on Tumblr!’ and then map the URL of the Tumblr post dynamically. This ensures that every time a new post is published, the correct link is sent to your Telegram audience.

To test your integration, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’. This action will send a test message to your Telegram group. If everything is set up correctly, you should see your message appear in the Telegram chat, confirming that Pabbly Connect has successfully integrated Tumblr and Telegram.

Conclusion

In conclusion, using Pabbly Connect to automate the sharing of your Tumblr posts on Telegram is a straightforward process. By following the steps outlined in this tutorial, you can set up an efficient workflow that saves time and enhances engagement with your audience. This integration allows you to focus on creating content while Pabbly Connect handles the distribution automatically.
