1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Integration

To integrate PayKickstart with SendGrid, start by accessing Pabbly Connect. Visit the Pabbly website by typing ‘Pabbly.com’ in your browser and pressing enter. Hover over the ‘Products’ section and select ‘Connect’ to enter the Pabbly Connect dashboard.

Once logged in, you can create a new workflow. Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button at the top right corner and name your workflow, for example, ‘PayKickstart to SendGrid’. This workflow will facilitate the automatic sending of emails through SendGrid when a new order is fulfilled in PayKickstart.

2. Setting Up the Trigger with PayKickstart

In this step, we will set up the trigger using Pabbly Connect. Choose PayKickstart as the app in the trigger window. For the trigger event, select ‘Fulfillment Order Received’. This will initiate the process whenever a new order is received in PayKickstart.

• Select ‘PayKickstart’ as the trigger app.
• Choose ‘Fulfillment Order Received’ as the trigger event.
• Click on ‘Save’ to confirm your settings.

Next, navigate to your PayKickstart account and select the product you wish to integrate. Scroll down to the integrations section and paste the webhook URL from Pabbly Connect into the IPN URL field. Set the event to ‘Fulfillment Order Received’ and save your settings to finalize the integration.

3. Capturing Data from PayKickstart

After setting up the trigger, we need to capture the data sent from PayKickstart through Pabbly Connect. Click on the ‘Capture Webhook Response’ button in your Pabbly Connect dashboard. It will wait for data from PayKickstart.

To test this, go back to PayKickstart and change the order status to ‘Order Received’ for a customer. After updating the status, check Pabbly Connect to see if the webhook response has captured the relevant data, including billing details and customer information.

• Change the order status in PayKickstart to ‘Order Received’.
• Click on ‘Capture Webhook Response’ in Pabbly Connect.
• Verify that the data has been captured correctly.

Once the data is captured, you will see all necessary details like billing address and customer name, which will be used for sending emails via SendGrid.

4. Sending Email via SendGrid

Now, we will set up SendGrid to send an email using the data captured by Pabbly Connect. Click the plus button to add an action step and select SendGrid as the app. Choose ‘Send Email’ as the action event.

Next, connect your SendGrid account by entering your API key. You can generate this API key in your SendGrid account under Settings > API Keys. Once connected, map the fields from the captured data to the email template fields in SendGrid.

Select ‘SendGrid’ as the action app. Choose ‘Send Email’ as the action event. Map the email fields such as recipient email, subject, and content.

After mapping the fields, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’. This will send a test email to confirm that the integration works properly. Check your email inbox to see if the email was received successfully.

5. Testing and Verifying the Integration

Finally, we will test the entire integration to ensure everything is functioning as expected. In your Pabbly Connect dashboard, you can see the history of the webhook responses and email sends. This allows you to verify that emails are being sent whenever an order status changes in PayKickstart.

To confirm, change another order status in PayKickstart and observe the results in Pabbly Connect. You should receive an email notification for each order status change, demonstrating the seamless integration between PayKickstart and SendGrid through Pabbly Connect.

By following these steps, you can automate your email notifications for new orders, improving your workflow efficiency.
