2. Creating the Workflow in Pabbly Connect

After accessing Pabbly Connect, click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button. You will be prompted to choose between creating from scratch or using AI. Select ‘Create from Scratch’ to manually set up your integration. Next, select the modern workflow builder for a more streamlined experience.

• Click on the ‘Select’ button to proceed.

• Select an appropriate folder for organization.

After naming your workflow, you will be taken to the workflow page where you can set up the trigger. In Pabbly Connect, triggers are the events that start your automation.

3. Setting Up the Trigger from WordPress

To initiate the workflow, you need to select WordPress as your trigger application. Search for WordPress in the trigger app options and select it. Then, choose the event ‘New Post Publish’ to trigger the workflow whenever a new post is published on your WordPress site.

Click on the ‘Connect’ button to generate a webhook URL. This URL is crucial for linking Pabbly Connect with your WordPress account. Copy this URL and head over to your WordPress dashboard to set up the webhook.

• Install the WP Webhooks plugin from the WordPress plugin repository.
• Navigate to the settings of the WP Webhooks plugin.
• Add the copied webhook URL under the ‘Send Data’ section.

By completing these steps, you ensure that every time a new post is published, it will send data to Pabbly Connect, triggering the next action.

4. Adding the Action Step to Create a Pinterest Pin

Now that you have set up the trigger, it’s time to add the action step in Pabbly Connect. Select Pinterest as your action application. Choose the event ‘Create Pin’ to automate the pin creation process.

Click on the ‘Connect’ button to establish a connection between Pabbly Connect and your Pinterest account. Make sure you are logged into Pinterest to allow access. Once connected, you will need to select the board where the pins will be saved.

Map the image URL from the WordPress post response to the Pinterest pin. Map the title and description fields similarly. Ensure all fields are correctly mapped to automate the process.

After mapping the necessary fields, click ‘Save and Send Test Request’. This will create a test pin in your Pinterest account, confirming that the integration works seamlessly via Pabbly Connect.

5. Testing the Integration in Real-Time

Now it’s time to test the integration you have set up with Pabbly Connect. Go back to your WordPress account and create a new post with a title, description, and featured image. Once published, this post should trigger the automation.

Refresh your Pinterest board to see if the new pin appears. You should see the pin created with the same title, description, and image as your WordPress post. This confirms that the integration is functioning as intended, and you can now automate your workflow effectively.
