Once the Facebook Lead Ads trigger is set up, the next step is to integrate Zoho CRM. Select Zoho CRM as your action application in Pabbly Connect and choose the event “Create Contact”. You will need to connect your Zoho account by entering your domain.

After connecting, map the fields from the Facebook lead response to the corresponding fields in Zoho CRM. This includes mapping the customer’s full name, email, and phone number. Once the mapping is complete, click on the “Save and Send Test Request” button to ensure that a new contact is created in Zoho CRM.

This integration allows you to manage leads effectively, ensuring that no lead is missed. The automation ensures that every new lead is captured in Zoho CRM without manual input.

Connect your Pabbly Chatbot account by entering the API token available in the settings. Map the WhatsApp mobile number and the personalized message fields. This message can include the customer’s name and details they submitted in the lead form.

After configuring the message, click on the “Save and Send Test Request” button to test the setup. Once successful, the customer will receive a personalized WhatsApp message immediately after submitting the lead form, ensuring timely follow-up.
