2. Setting Up the Integration with Pabbly Connect

After logging into Pabbly Connect, you will be directed to the workflow page. Here, you will set up the automation for your website leads. Start by selecting the trigger application as “Webhook” and choose the event as “Catch Webhook”. This will allow Pabbly Connect to receive data from your website form.

  • Select “Webhook” as the trigger application.
  • Choose the event “Catch Webhook”.
  • Copy the provided Webhook URL for integration.

Next, you will need to paste this Webhook URL into the code of your website form. This step is crucial as it connects your website form with Pabbly Connect. After pasting the URL, save the changes to your website form and prepare to test the integration by submitting a lead.

3. Testing the Integration with Pabbly Connect

Now that you have set up the Webhook, it’s time to test the integration. Fill out your website form with the lead’s details, including their name, email, and phone number. Once you submit the form, Pabbly Connect will capture this data through the Webhook.

Upon submission, go back to Pabbly Connect and check if the data has been received correctly. You should see the details you entered in your website form displayed in the Pabbly Connect dashboard. This confirms that the Webhook is functioning as intended.

4. Formatting Lead Data for Salesforce CRM

In order to create a new contact in Salesforce CRM, you might need to format the lead data appropriately. For instance, if the name is provided as a full name, you may want to split it into first name and last name. This can be done using the “Text Formatter” application in Pabbly Connect.

  • Select “Text Formatter” as the action application.
  • Choose the event “Split Text”.
  • Map the full name field to split it into first and last names.

After setting up the Text Formatter, you can map the split names to the corresponding fields in Salesforce CRM. This ensures that the data is accurately represented when creating a new contact.

5. Creating a Contact in Salesforce CRM via Pabbly Connect

With the lead data formatted, the next step is to create a contact in Salesforce CRM. In Pabbly Connect, select Salesforce CRM as the action application and choose the event “Create Contact”. You will need to authorize Pabbly Connect to access your Salesforce account.

Once authorized, map the necessary fields such as first name, last name, email, and phone number to the corresponding fields in Salesforce. This mapping ensures that the correct data is sent to Salesforce when a new lead is generated from your website form.

Finally, click on “Save and Send Test Request” to create the contact. After this step, refresh your Salesforce CRM contacts page to verify that the new lead has been successfully added. This integration through Pabbly Connect automates the process, allowing you to focus on other essential tasks.
