2. Setting Up the Trigger for New Facebook Leads

In this step, you will define the trigger that initiates the workflow in Pabbly Connect. Choose Facebook Lead Ads as your trigger application and select the trigger event as ‘New Lead Instant’. This means every time a new lead is generated through your Facebook ads, the workflow will be triggered automatically.

• Select Facebook Lead Ads as the trigger application.
• Choose the trigger event ‘New Lead Instant’.
• Connect your Facebook account to authorize Pabbly Connect.

After connecting, select the Facebook page and lead form associated with your media agency. This step is crucial to ensure that the correct leads are captured for your SMS notifications.

3. Connecting Google Sheets to Capture Lead Details

Next, in Pabbly Connect, add Google Sheets as your action application. This allows you to store the lead details captured from Facebook Lead Ads into a Google Sheet. Click on the ‘Add Action Step’ and select Google Sheets.

• Choose the action event ‘Add Row’ to insert lead details.
• Connect your Google account to authorize Pabbly Connect.
• Select the specific Google Sheet where you want to store the lead data.

Make sure to map the fields from the Facebook lead data to the columns in your Google Sheet. This mapping ensures that every new lead’s information is accurately recorded in the correct format.

4. Sending SMS Notifications Using Twilio

After successfully capturing lead details in Google Sheets, the next step is to send SMS notifications using Twilio through Pabbly Connect. To do this, add Twilio as another action application. Select the action event ‘Send SMS’ to configure your SMS settings.

Connect your Twilio account by entering your Account SID and Auth Token. Compose the SMS message including the lead’s details mapped from the previous step. Specify the sender’s number (Twilio number) and the recipient’s number (your phone number).

Once all details are entered, send a test SMS to confirm the integration works as intended. If successful, you will receive an SMS notification with the lead’s information every time a new lead is added.
