3. Configuring Email Parser in Pabbly Connect

To configure the Email Parser in Pabbly Connect, copy the provided email address which serves as your email hook. Forward your Gmail account to this address so that incoming emails can be parsed.

In your Gmail settings, navigate to the ‘Forwarding and POP/IMAP’ tab, and add the email address from Pabbly Connect. Confirm the forwarding by entering the verification code sent to the Pabbly email address.

• Go to Gmail settings and select ‘See all settings’.

After configuring the Email Parser, the next step in Pabbly Connect is to set up the ActiveCampaign integration. Add a new action step and select ActiveCampaign as the application.

Choose the action event as ‘Create or Update Contact’. You will need to connect your ActiveCampaign account by entering your API key and URL, which can be found in your ActiveCampaign settings under the ‘Developer’ section.

Copy the API key and URL from ActiveCampaign. Map the email, first name, and last name from the parsed email data.

Once the mapping is complete, save the setup. This allows new contacts to be created in your ActiveCampaign account automatically when new emails are received.

5. Testing the Integration with Pabbly Connect

To ensure that your integration is working properly, send a test email to the forwarding address from your Gmail account. Check Pabbly Connect to see if the email details were captured successfully.

After confirming the details are correct, navigate to your ActiveCampaign account and refresh the contacts list. You should see the new contact created from the test email.

This automated workflow using Pabbly Connect saves you time and ensures that you never miss adding a potential customer to your email list.
