Setting Up Pabbly Connect for Google Sheets and Gmail Integration

To send examination results via email, you first need to set up Pabbly Connect. This integration platform allows Google Sheets to communicate with Gmail seamlessly. Start by logging into your Pabbly Connect account.

Once you’re logged in, create a new workflow. Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button, and give your workflow a name that reflects its purpose, such as ‘Send Exam Results’. This name helps in identifying the workflow later.

Connecting Google Sheets to Pabbly Connect

In this step, you will connect Google Sheets to Pabbly Connect. Choose Google Sheets as the trigger application. Select the trigger event as ‘New Spreadsheet Row’. This event will start the workflow whenever a new row is added to your specified Google Sheet.

• Select your Google account to authorize Pabbly Connect.
• Choose the spreadsheet that contains the examination results.
• Select the specific worksheet where the data is stored.

After configuring these settings, click on the ‘Save & Send Test Request’ button to ensure that Pabbly Connect can retrieve data from your Google Sheets. This step is crucial to verify that the integration works correctly.

Setting Up Gmail Integration with Pabbly Connect

Next, you will set up Gmail as the action application in your Pabbly Connect workflow. Choose Gmail and then select the action event ‘Send Email’. This will allow you to automatically send emails based on the data retrieved from Google Sheets.

In the next step, configure the email settings:

• In the ‘To’ field, map the email address from your Google Sheets data.
• Set the ‘Subject’ to something like ‘Your Examination Results’.
• Compose the body of the email, including the examination results.

After entering all the email details, click on ‘Save’ to finalize the Gmail action. This setup ensures that every time a new row is added in Google Sheets, an email will be sent automatically.

Testing the Integration with Pabbly Connect

Now that you have set up both Google Sheets and Gmail in Pabbly Connect, it is time to test the integration. Go back to your Google Sheet and add a new row with examination results.

After adding the data, return to Pabbly Connect and click on ‘Test’. This will check if the email is sent successfully. You should see a confirmation message if everything is set up correctly.

If the test is successful, you can now enable your workflow. Click on the ‘On’ button to activate the integration. This means that every time a new row is added to your Google Sheet, an email will be sent automatically.
