Begin by visiting the Pabbly Connect website and signing in to your account. Once logged in, click on ‘Create Workflow’ and name it ‘WooCommerce to Twilio’. This will set up a new workflow where you will select WooCommerce as the trigger application. Choose ‘Order Updated’ as the trigger event, which will initiate the workflow whenever an order status is updated in WooCommerce.

Next, configure the webhook settings in your WooCommerce account to connect with Pabbly Connect. Navigate to the WooCommerce settings, click on ‘Advanced’, and then ‘Webhooks’. Here, click on ‘Add Webhook’ and enter a name for the webhook. Set the status to active and select the topic as ‘Order Updated’.

In the Delivery URL field, copy the webhook URL provided by Pabbly Connect and paste it into your WooCommerce settings. Ensure the API version is set to ‘WP REST API Integration V3’. After saving the webhook, your WooCommerce store will send order updates to Pabbly Connect whenever an order status changes.

After capturing the order update response from WooCommerce, the next step involves sending an SMS notification using Twilio through Pabbly Connect. Click the plus icon to add an action step and select Twilio as the application.

Choose ‘Send SMS Message’ as the action event. Connect your Twilio account by entering your Account SID and Auth Token, which can be found in your Twilio dashboard. After connecting, you will need to map the SMS body. A sample message could be ‘Thank you for your purchase, [Customer Name]. Your order status is now updated.’ Map the customer’s name and other relevant details from the captured response.

• Select Twilio as the action application.
• Choose ‘Send SMS Message’ as the action event.
• Map the SMS body with customer details.

Once the SMS body is configured, enter the sender’s number (your Twilio number) and the recipient’s number (customer’s mobile number). Click ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to test the integration.

To send bulk SMS notifications using Twilio, you can utilize data from Google Sheets integrated with Pabbly Connect. This allows you to send personalized SMS messages to multiple recipients at once based on the data in your Google Sheets.

Start by creating a new workflow in Pabbly Connect and select Google Sheets as the trigger application. Choose ‘Get Rows’ as the action event to pull data from your Google Sheet. Connect your Google Sheets account and select the specific sheet containing the contact details.

Select Google Sheets as the trigger application. Choose ‘Get Rows’ as the action event. Map the contact details for SMS.
