A dialog box will appear asking you to name your workflow. Enter a name like ‘Gmail to YouTube Integration’ and click on ‘Create’. This sets the stage for your integration process.

2. Setting Up the Trigger in Pabbly Connect

In this step, we will set up the trigger for our integration using Pabbly Connect. In the trigger window, select ‘Gmail’ as the application you want to connect. For the trigger event, choose ‘New Email’. This means that every time a new email arrives in Gmail, it will trigger the workflow.

• Select ‘Gmail’ as the app.
• Choose ‘New Email’ as the trigger event.
• Click on ‘Connect’ to link your Gmail account.

After connecting your Gmail account, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’. This will ensure that the trigger is working correctly. You should see a confirmation that the test was successful, indicating that Pabbly Connect is ready to process incoming emails.

3. Capturing Data from Gmail in Pabbly Connect

Now that the trigger is set, it’s time to capture data from Gmail using Pabbly Connect. When a new email is received, the information such as sender’s email, subject, and body will be captured. This data will be essential for the next steps of the integration.

To capture the data, click on the ‘Capture Webhook Response’ button in Pabbly Connect. This will start listening for any new emails coming into your Gmail account. Once you receive a new email, it will display the captured data in the dashboard. Ensure that the necessary fields have been populated correctly.

• Click on ‘Capture Webhook Response’.
• Verify that the data is accurately captured from Gmail.
• Confirm that all required fields are populated.

Once you have verified the data capture, you can proceed to the next integration step, which involves sending this data to Box.

4. Sending Data to Box Using Pabbly Connect

With the data captured from Gmail, we can now send it to Box using Pabbly Connect. In the action step, select ‘Box’ as the application to integrate. For the action event, choose ‘Upload File’. This allows you to upload files directly into your Box account based on the data received from Gmail.

After selecting ‘Box’, you will need to connect your Box account by clicking on ‘Connect’. Once connected, you can specify the folder where you want to upload the files. Map the necessary fields from the Gmail data to the Box upload fields. This ensures that the right data goes to the right place.

Select ‘Box’ as the app. Choose ‘Upload File’ as the action event. Map fields from Gmail to Box upload fields.

After mapping the fields, click ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to see if the integration works successfully. If everything is set up correctly, you should see the file uploaded to your specified Box folder, confirming that Pabbly Connect is facilitating this integration seamlessly.

5. Integrating YouTube with Pabbly Connect

Finally, we will integrate YouTube using Pabbly Connect. In the action step, select ‘YouTube’ as the application. For the action event, choose ‘Upload Video’. This allows you to upload videos to your YouTube channel based on the data processed from Gmail.

After selecting ‘YouTube’, connect your YouTube account and specify the details for the video upload. You can map the fields from the Gmail data to the video upload fields, such as the title, description, and visibility settings. This ensures that the video is uploaded with the right information.

Select ‘YouTube’ as the app. Choose ‘Upload Video’ as the action event. Map fields from Gmail to YouTube video upload fields.
