1. Setting Up Pabbly Connect for WooCommerce Integration

To start integrating WooCommerce order details into PostgreSQL, you need to access Pabbly Connect. This platform allows you to automate workflows without any coding skills. First, create a free account on Pabbly Connect if you haven’t done so already.

Once your account is ready, log in to your dashboard. Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button to begin. You can name your workflow something like ‘WooCommerce to PostgreSQL’. This will help you identify the automation later. After naming, click on ‘Create’ to open the workflow editor.

2. Triggering the Workflow with New WooCommerce Orders

The next step involves setting up the trigger for your workflow. In the trigger window, select Pabbly Connect and search for ‘WooCommerce’. Choose it and select the trigger event as ‘New Order Created’. This will initiate the workflow whenever a new order is placed in your WooCommerce store.

Pabbly Connect will provide you with a webhook URL. Copy this URL and navigate to your WordPress admin dashboard. From there, go to WooCommerce settings, then to the Advanced section, and select Webhooks. Click on ‘Add Webhook’ and enter the details:

• Name: PostgreSQL
• Status: Active
• Topic: Order Created
• Delivery URL: Paste the webhook URL from Pabbly Connect

After saving the webhook, your WooCommerce store will send order details to Pabbly Connect whenever a new order is created. You can now test this by placing a dummy order in your WooCommerce store.

3. Capturing Order Details in Pabbly Connect

After placing a dummy order, return to your Pabbly Connect workflow and click on the ‘Recapture Webhook Response’ button. This action will allow Pabbly Connect to capture the details of the new order you just placed. Ensure that the workflow is set to wait for the response.

Once the order is placed, Pabbly Connect will automatically receive the order details. You will see a test response showing all relevant information, such as the order ID, customer details, and product information. This confirms that your WooCommerce store is successfully connected to Pabbly Connect.

4. Inserting Order Details into PostgreSQL

Now that Pabbly Connect has captured the order details, the next step is to insert these details into your PostgreSQL database. In the action step, search for ‘PostgreSQL’ and select it. Choose the action event as ‘Insert Row into a Table’. using Pabbly Connect

Click on ‘Connect’ and create a new connection by entering your PostgreSQL credentials, including username, password, host name, database name, and port. After saving the connection, select the table where you want to insert the order details. For instance, if your table is named ‘woocommerce_orders’, select it from the dropdown.

• Order ID
• Created At
• Customer Name
• Email
• Mobile Number
• Address
• Product Name
• Quantity
• Total Amount

Map the captured order details to the respective fields in your PostgreSQL table. Once all fields are mapped, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to insert the data into your database. If successful, you’ll receive a positive response confirming the data is stored correctly.

5. Testing Your Automation Workflow

After setting up the integration, it’s crucial to test the automation workflow. Place another dummy order in your WooCommerce store to see if the details are correctly captured and stored in PostgreSQL. Follow the same process as before, ensuring that the order details are unique.

Once the order is placed, return to your PostgreSQL database and refresh the table. You should see the new order details reflected in the table, confirming that your Pabbly Connect automation is functioning correctly. This process allows for seamless data transfer between WooCommerce and PostgreSQL, enhancing your order management capabilities.
