1. Access Pabbly Connect to Start the Integration

To begin sending Facebook leads to Google Chat, you must first access Pabbly Connect. Navigate to the Pabbly website and sign in to your account. If you are a new user, you can sign up for free to get started.

Once logged in, you will be directed to the Pabbly apps page. Here, select Pabbly Connect to enter the dashboard where you can create your workflow. This platform is essential for automating the connection between Facebook and Google Chat.

2. Create a New Workflow in Pabbly Connect

After accessing Pabbly Connect, the next step is to create a new workflow. Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button and choose the classic workflow builder. Name your workflow ‘Instant Alerts: Send Facebook Leads to Google Chat in Seconds’ and select the appropriate folder for your automation.

• Click on the ‘Create’ button to finalize your workflow setup.
• You will see two boxes: one for the trigger and one for the action.

In this workflow, you will set up Facebook Lead Ads as the trigger application. This means that every time a new lead is generated, it will automatically notify your team via Google Chat. This automation is crucial for maintaining timely communication with your team.

3. Set Up Facebook Lead Ads as the Trigger

Now, configure the trigger by selecting Facebook Lead Ads from the application dropdown in Pabbly Connect. For the trigger event, choose ‘New Lead Instant’. Click on the ‘Connect’ button to link your Facebook account.

If you have not connected your Facebook account yet, you will need to authorize Pabbly Connect to access your Facebook Lead Ads. Once connected, select the Facebook page and lead form you want to use for this automation. This setup ensures that every new lead captured will trigger the workflow.

4. Configure Google Chat as the Action Application

Next, you will set up Google Chat as the action application within Pabbly Connect. Click on the ‘Add New Action Step’ and select Google Chat from the application list. Choose the action event as ‘Create Message’ and then click on ‘Connect’.

• Enter your Google Chat webhook URL and the message format you want to send.
• Map the fields from the Facebook lead to the message content.

This mapping process ensures that the details of the new lead are dynamically included in the message sent to Google Chat. You will receive notifications such as ‘Hello team, we have received a new lead’ followed by the lead details.

5. Test Your Integration Workflow

Once both the trigger and action are set up, it’s crucial to test your integration in Pabbly Connect. Use the lead testing tool to submit a dummy lead entry. This action should activate the workflow and send a notification to your Google Chat space.

After submitting the test lead, check your Google Chat space to confirm that the notification has been received. If everything is set up correctly, you should see a message with the lead details, indicating that your automation is functioning as intended.

Conclusion

In this tutorial, we demonstrated how to use Pabbly Connect to automate the process of sending Facebook leads to Google Chat. By following these steps, you can ensure that your team is instantly notified of new leads, enhancing your response time and efficiency in managing leads.
