1. Accessing Pabbly Connect to Set Up Automation

To receive WhatsApp notifications when payouts are released from Stripe, you need to use Pabbly Connect. Start by visiting the Pabbly Connect website at Pabbly.com/connect, where you can create a free account to test the automation.

Once you’ve created your account, log in to access the dashboard. Here, you can begin setting up your automation workflow. Click on the blue button to create a new automation and give it a relevant name, such as ‘Get Notified on WhatsApp When Payout is Released’.

2. Setting Stripe as the Trigger Application in Pabbly Connect

In this section, we will set Stripe as the trigger application in Pabbly Connect. When a payout is released from Stripe, it will serve as the event that triggers the notification. Select ‘Stripe’ from the list of applications.

Next, choose the trigger event as ‘New Payout’. This ensures that every time a payout is made, it will initiate the automation. You will be prompted to connect your Stripe account by providing API keys, which will allow Pabbly Connect to access your Stripe data.

3. Connecting Email Parser to Receive Notifications

To receive notifications via WhatsApp, we need to connect an Email Parser in Pabbly Connect. This tool will help extract information from the emails you receive from Stripe. Select ‘Email Parser’ as your application.

After selecting Email Parser, you will receive a unique email address. Copy this address and go to your Gmail settings to set up email forwarding. This involves adding the Email Parser’s address in the forwarding section of your Gmail settings.

• Open Gmail settings and navigate to the Forwarding and POP/IMAP tab.
• Click on ‘Add a forwarding address’ and paste the Email Parser address.
• Verify the forwarding address by entering the confirmation code sent to the Email Parser.

Once verified, all relevant payout notifications from Stripe will be forwarded to Pabbly Connect through the Email Parser.

4. Applying Filters to Receive Relevant Notifications

To ensure you only receive notifications for actual payouts, you need to apply filters in Pabbly Connect. This step is crucial to avoid receiving notifications for every email.

Utilize the filter feature to specify conditions based on the subject line of the emails. Set the condition to trigger notifications only when the subject line starts with ‘A payout of’ and ends with ‘is on the way’. This ensures that only relevant payout notifications will trigger WhatsApp messages.

• Select the subject line from the received email data.
• Set the condition to ‘starts with’ for the initial part and ‘ends with’ for the concluding part.

By setting these filters, Pabbly Connect will only send WhatsApp notifications when a payout is actually released, keeping your notifications relevant and concise.

5. Sending WhatsApp Notifications Using Pabbly Connect

Now that we have set up the trigger and filters, the final step is to send WhatsApp notifications. For this, select the WhatsApp Cloud API as the action application in Pabbly Connect.

Connect your WhatsApp Cloud API account by entering your token, phone number ID, and WhatsApp Business Account ID. Make sure to create a message template for your notifications, which must be approved by Facebook before use. Once connected, select the appropriate template for sending notifications.

Choose the template that includes dynamic variables for payout amounts. Map the payout amount from the Email Parser response into the template.

Finally, test the integration by sending a test message to your WhatsApp. If everything is set up correctly, you will receive a notification on your WhatsApp whenever a payout is released from Stripe.

Conclusion

In summary, using Pabbly Connect allows you to automate the process of receiving WhatsApp notifications for Stripe payouts. By following the steps outlined, you can streamline your notification process and stay updated on your payouts effortlessly.
