1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Blogger to Medium Integration

To start sharing Blogger posts on Medium, you need to access Pabbly Connect. First, navigate to the Pabbly Connect website and sign in to your account. If you are new, you can sign up for free and get a limited number of tasks each month.

Once logged in, you will see the dashboard. Here, select Pabbly Connect by clicking on the ‘Access Now’ button. This action will direct you to the Pabbly Connect dashboard where you can create a new workflow for your automation.

2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect

To automate the sharing process, you need to create a workflow in Pabbly Connect. Click on the top right corner button labeled ‘Create Workflow’. A dialog box will prompt you to name your workflow. Enter a name like ‘Share Blogger Post on Medium’.

• Name your workflow appropriately
• Select a folder to save your workflow
• Click ‘Create’ to finalize your workflow setup

After creating your workflow, you will see two sections: Trigger and Action. The trigger is what starts the automation, while the action is what happens as a result. Set up your trigger first by selecting Blogger as the application.

3. Setting Up the Trigger for Blogger

In this step, you will set up the trigger in Pabbly Connect. Click on the trigger application dropdown and select Google Blogger. For the trigger event, choose ‘New Post Added’. This means that whenever you publish a new post on Blogger, Pabbly Connect will capture this event.

Click on ‘Connect’ to link your Google Blogger account to Pabbly Connect. You will have to authorize the connection by signing in with your Google account. Once connected, select the blog you want to monitor and set the post status to ‘Only Live’. This ensures that only published posts trigger the workflow.

4. Setting Up the Action to Share on Medium

After successfully setting the trigger, it’s time to configure the action step in Pabbly Connect. Choose Medium as the action application and select ‘Create a Post’ as the action event. This step allows you to publish the captured Blogger post to your Medium account.

Click on ‘Connect’ to link your Medium account. You will need to generate an integration token from your Medium account settings. After obtaining the token, paste it into Pabbly Connect to establish the connection.

• Open your Medium account and navigate to ‘Settings’
• Go to ‘Security and Apps’ to generate the token
• Copy the token and paste it in Pabbly Connect

Once connected, map the post title and content from the previous Blogger step. Ensure that the content format is set to HTML since Blogger posts will contain HTML tags. Finally, set the post status to ‘Pabbly’ before saving and testing the request.

5. Finishing the Integration and Testing

With the action set up, you can now test the integration. Click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ in Pabbly Connect. This action will send the data from your Blogger post to Medium, creating a new post automatically.

To verify the integration, log into your Medium account and check if the new post appears. You should see the same content that you published on Blogger replicated on Medium. This confirms that the automation is working correctly.

If you encounter any delays, remember that Google Blogger has a polling time of 8 hours. Therefore, new data may not appear immediately. You can adjust this polling duration by contacting support through the P Forum.
