2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect

Next, you need to create a new workflow in Pabbly Connect. Click on the top right corner button labeled ‘Create Workflow’. A dialog box will appear asking for the workflow name and folder selection. Name your workflow as ‘Create GoToWebinar Registrant on Contact Form 7 Submission’ and select a folder, such as ‘GoToWebinar Automations’.

• Click on the ‘Create’ button to finalize your workflow setup.
• Your new workflow will have two windows: Trigger and Action.

In this section, you will set up the trigger for your workflow. The trigger will be from Contact Form 7, which is a popular plugin for WordPress. Choose ‘New Form Submission’ as the trigger event, which is essential for capturing registrant details.

3. Connecting Contact Form 7 to Pabbly Connect

After setting up the trigger, Pabbly Connect will provide you with a unique webhook URL. This URL is crucial for connecting Contact Form 7 to Pabbly Connect. Copy this URL and then go to the Contact Form 7 plugin on your WordPress site.

In the Contact Form 7 dashboard, edit the form you created for webinar registrations. Navigate to the ‘Webhook’ section and paste the copied webhook URL into the provided field. Don’t forget to toggle the button to enable sending form submissions to the webhook.

• Click on the ‘Save’ button to save your changes.
• This integration allows Pabbly Connect to capture data from new form submissions.

Now, go back to your Pabbly Connect workflow and check for a webhook response. This confirms that your Contact Form 7 is successfully connected to Pabbly Connect.

4. Creating a Registrant in GoToWebinar

Once you’ve confirmed that Pabbly Connect has captured the response, it’s time to set up the action step to create a registrant in GoToWebinar. Select GoToWebinar as the action application and choose ‘Create Registrant’ as the action event.

Click on the ‘Connect’ button to establish a connection between Pabbly Connect and GoToWebinar. You will need to provide the start and end times for your webinar in UTC format. For example, if your webinar is scheduled for 10:00 AM IST, convert it to UTC using an online converter.

Enter the webinar date and time in the specified format. Map the data fields from the previous step to ensure that the registrant details are inserted correctly.

After mapping the registrant’s first name, last name, email, and phone number, click on the ‘Save and Test Request’ button. This action will send the registrant’s details to your GoToWebinar account.

5. Verifying the Registration in GoToWebinar

The final step is to verify that the registrant has been successfully created in your GoToWebinar account. Open your GoToWebinar dashboard and navigate to the registration section of your webinar. You should see the newly created registrant with the details you submitted.

This process confirms that your automation between Contact Form 7 and GoToWebinar via Pabbly Connect is working perfectly. Now, every time someone registers through your Contact Form 7, they will automatically be added as a registrant in your GoToWebinar account.

This automation saves you time and reduces the risk of errors that can occur when handling registrations manually. With Pabbly Connect, managing your webinar registrations becomes a seamless experience.
