1. Accessing Pabbly Connect to Get Started

To begin integrating Google Sheets with WhatsApp, first, access Pabbly Connect by visiting the official Pabbly website. Simply type pabbly.com into your browser to reach the landing page.

Once on the site, sign in to your account using the “Sign In” option in the top right corner. If you’re new, you can sign up for free. After signing in, navigate to the Pabbly Connect application to start creating your workflow.

2. Creating Your Workflow in Pabbly Connect

In this section, we will create a workflow in Pabbly Connect to send WhatsApp messages based on Google Sheets data. Click on “Create Workflow” and name it something relevant, such as “Send WhatsApp Independence Day Offers from Google Sheets.” Select the appropriate folder for your workflow.

  • Click on the “Create” button to set up your new workflow.
  • Select Google Sheets as the trigger application.
  • Choose the trigger event as “New or Updated Spreadsheet Row”.

After selecting the trigger, connect your Google Sheets account to Pabbly Connect by following the on-screen instructions. This will allow you to pull data from your spreadsheet whenever you add new contacts.

3. Setting Up Google Sheets for Integration

Now that your workflow is created in Pabbly Connect, it’s time to set up your Google Sheets. Open your spreadsheet that contains the contact details, including fields like first name, last name, email, and phone number.

To connect Google Sheets to Pabbly Connect, you will need to install the Pabbly Connect Webhooks add-on. Go to Extensions > Add-ons > Get Add-ons, and search for “Pabbly Connect Webhooks.” Install it and refresh your Google Sheets.

  • Navigate to Extensions > Pabbly Connect Webhooks > Initial Setup.
  • Paste the webhook URL from your Pabbly Connect workflow.
  • Set the trigger column to the final data column (e.g., Column D).

Once these steps are completed, test the connection by sending sample data from Google Sheets to Pabbly Connect to ensure everything is working correctly.

4. Sending WhatsApp Messages via Pabbly Connect

With the integration set up, you can now send WhatsApp messages using Pabbly Connect. Add a new action step in your workflow and select Pabbly Chatflow as the action application.

Choose the action event as “Send Text Message”. Connect your Pabbly Chatflow account and enter the required details, such as the phone number and message content. Ensure you map the fields correctly from Google Sheets to personalize each message.

  • Map the phone number and include the country code without the plus sign.
  • Customize the message to include personalized elements like the recipient’s name.
  • Test the action to ensure that messages are sent successfully.

Once you have verified that the messages are sent correctly, you can proceed to send bulk messages to all contacts in your Google Sheets.

5. Finalizing the Integration and Sending Bulk Messages

After setting up the message sending process in Pabbly Connect, you are ready to send bulk messages. In your Google Sheets, go to Extensions > Pabbly Connect Webhooks and select “Send All Data” to trigger the message sending process.

Upon triggering this action, all contacts listed in your Google Sheets will receive personalized WhatsApp messages. You can check your WhatsApp to confirm that messages have been sent successfully to each contact.

This integration allows you to efficiently communicate with multiple contacts at once, making it a powerful tool for your business.
