1. Setting Up Pabbly Connect for Automation

To start tracking competitor prices automatically, you first need to access Pabbly Connect. This platform allows you to integrate various applications seamlessly without any coding. Begin by creating a free account at Pabbly Connect if you are not an existing user.

Once you are logged in, navigate to the Pabbly Connect dashboard. Here, you can create and manage your automation workflows. Click on the ‘+ Create Workflow’ button to initiate a new workflow. You can choose to create from scratch, use AI, or employ the quick builder. For this tutorial, select the option to create from scratch.

2. Configuring the Trigger with Browse AI

The next step involves setting up the trigger application. In this case, you will select Browse AI as your trigger application. This application is responsible for capturing the product details from your competitor’s website. When Browse AI detects new product data, it will trigger the workflow in Pabbly Connect.

  • Select Browse AI as the application.
  • Choose ‘Executed Task’ as the app event.
  • Click ‘Connect’ to establish a connection with Browse AI.

After connecting, you will need to select the robot you have created in Browse AI for tracking prices. Make sure to set the monitoring frequency and save your settings. This allows Browse AI to check the competitor’s page for updates automatically.

3. Integrating Google Sheets with Pabbly Connect

Once the trigger is configured, the next step is to set up the action application, which in this case is Google Sheets. This integration will allow you to store the tracked price data directly into a Google Sheets document. Select Google Sheets as your action application in Pabbly Connect.

Choose ‘Add New Row’ as the app event and connect your Google Sheets account. After connecting, select the spreadsheet you want to use for tracking prices. Ensure that the columns in your spreadsheet correspond to the data you want to capture, such as product name, seller name, and price.

  • Map the fields from Browse AI to your Google Sheets columns.
  • Click ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to verify the setup.
  • Check Google Sheets to confirm that the data has been added successfully.

After mapping the fields, you will see a new record added to your Google Sheets, confirming that the integration is working effectively.

4. Finalizing Your Pabbly Connect Workflow

Now that both the trigger and action applications are set up, it’s important to finalize your workflow. Ensure that the toggle for the workflow is enabled; otherwise, it will not run automatically. This step is crucial for maintaining the automation you have created using Pabbly Connect.

Review your settings to make sure everything is configured correctly. If you encounter any issues, you can always return to the Pabbly Connect dashboard to make adjustments. Once satisfied, your competitor price tracking automation is ready to work in the background.

With this automation, you will no longer need to check your competitor’s product page manually. Instead, all relevant data will be captured and stored automatically in Google Sheets, allowing you to focus on other tasks.
