To begin the integration process, you first need to access Pabbly Connect. This automation platform allows you to link Jotform with Google Sheets seamlessly. Start by signing up for a free account on the Pabbly Connect website, where you’ll receive free automation tasks each month to test your integrations.

Once registered, log into your Pabbly Connect dashboard. From here, click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button. You will be prompted to name your workflow. Name it appropriately, such as ‘Jotform to Google Sheets Integration’, and click the ‘Create’ button to proceed.

In this step, you will set Jotform as the trigger application in your workflow using Pabbly Connect. Search for Jotform in the ‘Choose App’ field and select it. Next, select the trigger event as ‘New Response’. This event will activate whenever a new submission is made in your Jotform.

3. Testing the Integration with Sample Data

Once the integration is set, you need to test it by submitting sample data through your Jotform. Before filling out the form, ensure that the ‘Simple Response’ toggle is turned off. This setting allows you to receive the data in an array format, which is essential for the next steps in Pabbly Connect.

Fill in the required fields in the form and add multiple contacts using the ‘Add Another Contact’ button. After entering the details for several users, click the ‘Submit’ button. This action will send the data to Pabbly Connect, where it will be captured for further processing.

In the Iterator setup, choose the array from the previous Jotform step. This array contains the user data you submitted. Click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to see the details of the first user. The Iterator will separate the data, allowing each user to be sent to Google Sheets in individual rows.

• Select the array from the Jotform step.
• Click ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to process the first user’s data.
• Confirm the data is correctly separated.

Now that the data is segmented, you can proceed to send this information to Google Sheets.

5. Sending User Data to Google Sheets

In this final step, you will send the user data to Google Sheets using Pabbly Connect. Click on the plus icon to add another action step and search for Google Sheets. Select it and choose ‘Add New Row’ as the action event.

Connect your Google account by clicking ‘Sign In with Google’. After authorizing, choose the specific spreadsheet where you want to send the data. Map the fields from the Iterator, such as first name, last name, email, and phone number, to the corresponding columns in your Google Sheets.

Finally, click ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to verify that the data is correctly added to your Google Sheets. If successful, you will see the user details appear as new rows in your spreadsheet, confirming that the integration is working perfectly.
