1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Integration

To send videos to your Telegram channel from Google Sheets, the first step is to access Pabbly Connect. Start by visiting the Pabbly website and log in to your account. If you are new, click on ‘Sign Up Free’ to create an account quickly. Once logged in, navigate to the ‘All Apps’ section and select Pabbly Connect.

After accessing Pabbly Connect, you will see the dashboard. Here, you can create a new workflow by clicking on the plus sign. Name your workflow, such as ‘Send Videos to Telegram Channel from Google Sheets,’ and click on the create button. This is where the integration process begins.

2. Setting Up Google Sheets with Pabbly Connect

In this step, you will set up Google Sheets as the trigger application within Pabbly Connect. Choose Google Sheets from the trigger application list and select the event as ‘New or Updated Spreadsheet Row.’ A webhook URL will be generated for you to connect Google Sheets with Pabbly Connect.

• Copy the webhook URL provided by Pabbly Connect.
• Open your Google Sheet and navigate to Extensions > Add-ons > Get Add-ons.
• Search for ‘Pabbly Connect Webhooks’ and install it.
• Refresh your Google Sheet after installation.

After refreshing, go back to Extensions > Pabbly Connect Webhooks > Initial Setup. Paste the copied webhook URL and specify the trigger column, which will be the final data column where video URLs will be added. Click ‘Send Test’ to ensure the setup is configured correctly.

3. Configuring Telegram Integration with Pabbly Connect

Next, you will integrate Telegram as the action application in Pabbly Connect. Select Telegram from the action application list and choose the action event as ‘Send a Video.’ You will need to connect your Telegram bot to Pabbly Connect by providing a token.

To obtain the token, go to your Telegram app and search for ‘BotFather.’ Create a new bot by typing ‘/newbot’ and follow the prompts to name your bot and create a username. Once created, copy the token provided by BotFather and paste it into Pabbly Connect to establish the connection.

• Add your bot to the Telegram group where you want to send videos.
• Grant admin rights to your bot for full functionality.
• Copy the chat ID from the group URL and paste it into Pabbly Connect.

Ensure that you map the title and video URL from Google Sheets to the appropriate fields in Pabbly Connect. This will allow the bot to send the video along with a caption whenever a new entry is made in Google Sheets.

4. Testing the Integration Between Google Sheets and Telegram

With everything set up, it’s time to test the integration. Go back to your Google Sheet and enter a new video title and URL. After saving, check your Telegram channel to see if the video has been posted automatically. This step verifies that Pabbly Connect is functioning correctly.

If the video appears in your Telegram channel, the integration is successful. You can now add more video links to your Google Sheet, and they will automatically be sent to your Telegram channel without any further setup. This automation saves time and ensures consistency in posting.
