Now, let’s integrate Google Chat into our workflow using Pabbly Connect. Choose Google Chat as your action application and select the event to create a message. Click on ‘Connect Now’ to establish the connection.

To connect Google Chat, you will need the webhook URL. Open your Google Chat and navigate to the space where you want to send the reminders. Go to Apps and Integrations, then manage webhooks. Here, you can create a new webhook by pasting the URL you copied from the Pabbly Connect forum.

With the integration set up, it’s time to frame the message that will be sent using Pabbly Connect. Draft a message that informs your group members of their tasks. For instance, you can write, ‘As the team lead, please ensure you complete your tasks this week.’

After drafting your message, click on ‘Save’ in Pabbly Connect. Next, send a test request to ensure everything is functioning correctly. You should receive a confirmation response indicating that the message has been successfully sent.
