1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Shopify and Slack Integration

To start the integration process, access Pabbly Connect by visiting the official website. Here, you can sign in or create an account if you don’t have one. Pabbly Connect allows you to effortlessly connect Shopify and Slack without any coding knowledge.

Once logged in, navigate to the dashboard where you can create a new workflow. Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button and give your workflow a name, such as ‘Shopify Product Integration.’ This sets the stage for integrating Shopify with Slack using Pabbly Connect.

2. Setting Up Shopify Trigger in Pabbly Connect

In this step, you will set Shopify as the trigger application in Pabbly Connect. Choose Shopify from the app list and select the trigger event as ‘New Product.’ This means that whenever a new product is created in Shopify, it will trigger the workflow.

• Select Shopify as the app.
• Choose ‘New Product’ as the trigger event.
• Copy the generated webhook URL from Pabbly Connect.

Next, go to your Shopify account settings and navigate to the Webhooks section. Here, paste the copied webhook URL and set the event to ‘Product Creation.’ This establishes the connection between Shopify and Pabbly Connect.

3. Capturing Webhook Response from Shopify

After setting up the webhook, you need to capture the webhook response in Pabbly Connect. To do this, click on the ‘Capture Web Response’ button. This allows you to test the integration by creating a new product in Shopify.

Go to your Shopify store and add a new product. Fill in the necessary details like product name, description, and price. Once saved, Pabbly Connect will capture the product data, including the product ID and title, confirming that the integration is working correctly.

• Add a new product in Shopify.
• Ensure the product is active.
• Check Pabbly Connect for captured data.

This step verifies that Pabbly Connect is successfully receiving data from Shopify whenever a new product is created.

4. Integrating Slack as the Action in Pabbly Connect

Now that you’ve captured the product data, it’s time to integrate Slack as the action application in Pabbly Connect. Choose Slack from the app list and select the action event as ‘Send Channel Message.’ This means that every time a new product is added in Shopify, a message will be sent to a designated Slack channel.

Connect your Slack account by creating new credentials. Once connected, map the relevant fields from the Shopify product data to the Slack message. Specify the channel where the message will be sent and customize the message content to include product details like name, price, and quantity.

Select the Slack channel for notifications. Map the product details to the message format. Test the integration by sending a message.

After saving your settings, you can test the integration by checking the Slack channel for the new product message. This confirms that Pabbly Connect is effectively sending notifications from Shopify to Slack.

5. Finalizing the Integration Process with Pabbly Connect

With the Slack integration configured, you can finalize the workflow in Pabbly Connect. Save your workflow to ensure all settings are stored. You can now repeat the process by adding new products in Shopify to see the notifications in Slack.

This integration allows you to stay updated on new products added to your Shopify store without manually checking. Each time a new product is created, a message will automatically be sent to your Slack channel, enhancing team communication.

Using Pabbly Connect for this integration not only saves time but also keeps your team informed in real-time. If you encounter any issues, Pabbly’s support team is available to assist you.
