After authorizing, you will see a success message confirming that your Calendly account is connected to Pabbly Connect. This connection is essential for the automation to work seamlessly.
3. Testing the Calendly Connection
To ensure that your Calendly connection is working, schedule a test meeting in your Calendly account. This step is crucial as it will send data to Pabbly Connect. Fill in the required fields such as your first name, last name, email address, and phone number.
Once the meeting is scheduled, return to Pabbly Connect and check for the webhook response. This response will confirm whether the data from Calendly has been successfully received.
4. Setting Up Zoho CRM Action in Pabbly Connect
Next, you will set up the action application, which is Zoho CRM. Select Zoho CRM from the application list and choose the action event as ‘Create Contact’. This action will create a new contact in Zoho CRM each time a new invitee is created in Calendly.
- Click on the “Connect” button to link your Zoho CRM account.
