To start integrating Google Forms with WhatsApp using Pabbly Connect, you first need to access the platform. Open a new tab and go to pabby.com/connect. This will take you to the Pabbly Connect landing page.

Once there, sign up for free or log in if you already have an account. New users will receive 100 free tasks, allowing you to set up your workflow without any initial cost.


2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect

After logging into Pabbly Connect, navigate to the dashboard where you can create a new workflow. Click on the “Create Using AI” option to automate the setup process.

  • Enter the prompt: “Connect Google Forms with WhatsApp”.
  • Select the event for receiving new Google Form responses.
  • Choose to send a template message via WhatsApp.

Once you’ve set the parameters, approve the workflow. This workflow will now be ready to connect Google Forms to WhatsApp through Pabbly Connect.


3. Connecting Google Forms to Pabbly Connect

To link Google Forms with Pabbly Connect, you need to obtain the webhook URL provided by Pabbly. Copy this URL and go to your Google Form.

In the Google Form, navigate to the “Responses” section and select the “Link to Sheets” option. You can either create a new spreadsheet or choose an existing one. This spreadsheet will directly connect to your Google Form responses.

  • Go to Extensions > Add-ons > Get Add-ons.
  • Search for Pabbly Connect Webhooks and install it.
  • Refresh the spreadsheet to see the Pabbly Connect option.

Once installed, go back to Extensions, select Pabbly Connect Webhooks, and click on “Initial Setup” to paste the webhook URL and set the trigger column.


4. Testing the Integration

After configuring the webhook, you can test the integration. Fill out the Google Form with sample data and submit it. This should trigger the webhook to send the data to Pabbly Connect.

To verify, check both the Google Sheet and the Pabbly Connect workflow for the new entry. If everything is set up correctly, the data from the form submission will appear in both places.

  • Make sure the phone number and other details are correctly filled in.
  • Check for any errors in the Pabbly Connect workflow.

Once confirmed, you can proceed to send a WhatsApp message as a follow-up to the form submission using Pabbly Connect.


5. Sending WhatsApp Notifications via Pabbly Connect

To send WhatsApp notifications, navigate to the Pabbly Connect workflow you created. Select the action to send a template message using Pabbly Chatflow.

Connect your Pabbly Chatflow account by generating an API key in the settings. Paste this key into the Pabbly Connect action setup.

  • Map the recipient’s phone number from the form submission.
  • Select the pre-configured template message.
  • Customize the message as needed.

Click “Save and Send Test Request” to send a test message. If successful, the recipient will receive a WhatsApp notification confirming their form submission.
