3. Testing the LinkedIn Integration

To test the integration, you need to generate a lead through LinkedIn. Open your LinkedIn campaign and fill out the lead generation form with the necessary details, such as email and phone number. Once the form is submitted, Pabbly Connect will capture this data as part of the workflow.

After submission, return to the Pabbly Connect dashboard to check if the lead details have been successfully captured. You should see the email and phone number you entered in the test submission. This confirms that the LinkedIn trigger is properly set up and functioning.

• Connect your Google account by signing in and granting permission to Pabbly Connect.
• Map the fields from the LinkedIn lead to the Google Contacts fields, such as first name, last name, email, and phone number.
• Ensure that mapping is done correctly to keep the data dynamic for future leads.

After mapping the fields, click on ‘Save and Send Request’ to finalize the integration. This will create a new contact in your Google Contacts based on the lead information captured from LinkedIn.

5. Verifying the Google Contacts Integration

Once you have saved the action step, it is time to verify that the integration works as intended. Open your Google Contacts and refresh the page to check if the new lead has been added successfully. You should see the contact created with the details you provided during the LinkedIn lead submission.

This final step confirms that your automation workflow between LinkedIn and Google Contacts via Pabbly Connect is fully operational. Whenever a new lead is generated in LinkedIn, it will automatically be saved in your Google Contacts.
