1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Integration

To delete contacts from Google Contacts when they are deleted in Brevo, you will first need to access Pabbly Connect. Start by navigating to the Pabbly Connect website by entering the URL Pabbly.com/connect.

Once on the landing page, you will see options to sign in or sign up for free. If you are an existing user, click on the ‘Sign In’ button. After signing in, you will reach the dashboard where you can create a new workflow.

2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect

After signing into Pabbly Connect, click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button. A dialog box will appear asking you to name your workflow. For this integration, name it something like ‘Delete Contacts from Google Contacts when Deleted in Brevo’ and click on ‘Create’.

Now, you will be taken to a new window with two sections: Trigger and Action. The trigger application will be Brevo, and the action application will be Google Contacts. This setup ensures that when a contact is deleted in Brevo, the same contact will be deleted in Google Contacts.

3. Setting Up the Trigger with Brevo

In this step, you need to set up Brevo as the trigger application. Select ‘Brevo’ as your trigger app and choose the trigger event as ‘Contact Deleted’. This event will initiate the workflow when a contact is deleted.

Pabbly Connect will provide a webhook URL, which acts as a bridge between Brevo and Pabbly Connect. Copy this webhook URL. Next, go to your Brevo account, navigate to the ‘Contacts’ section, and then to ‘Settings’. Under ‘Webhooks’, add a new webhook using the copied URL. Select the event for when a contact is deleted and click ‘Add’.

4. Testing the Trigger for Data Capture

After setting up the webhook in Brevo, return to Pabbly Connect and perform a test submission. This step is crucial as it allows Pabbly Connect to capture the data from the webhook. Delete a contact from Brevo to trigger the webhook.

Once the contact is deleted, go back to Pabbly Connect to check if the webhook response has been recorded successfully. You should see the details of the deleted contact, including the email address. This confirms that the integration is functioning correctly up to this point.

5. Setting Up Google Contacts Action

Now, it’s time to set up Google Contacts as the action application in Pabbly Connect. Choose ‘Google Contacts’ and select the action event as ‘Delete Contact’. Before proceeding, ensure you connect Pabbly Connect to your Google account by clicking ‘Connect’.

Once connected, you will need to map the email address of the contact you want to delete from Google Contacts. This mapping is essential for the workflow to function correctly. After mapping the email, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’. This will delete the specified contact from your Google Contacts.

Finally, verify that the contact has been removed by refreshing your Google Contacts page. If the contact is no longer visible, your integration is successful, and the workflow is complete.

Conclusion

In this tutorial, we demonstrated how to delete contacts from Google Contacts automatically when they are deleted in Brevo using Pabbly Connect. By following these steps, you can streamline your contact management process and ensure that your Google Contacts remain updated effortlessly.
