2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect
In this step, we will create a workflow to automate WhatsApp messaging. Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button located at the top right corner of the dashboard. A dialog box will appear, prompting you to name your workflow.

After creating the workflow, you will see two sections labeled ‘Trigger’ and ‘Action’. This is where you will set up the automation process using Pabbly Connect.
3. Setting Up the Trigger in Pabbly Connect
The first step in your automation is to set up the trigger. For this integration, select ‘Elementor’ as your trigger application. The trigger event to choose is ‘New Form Submission’. This means that every time a new form is submitted via Elementor, it will trigger the workflow.
After selecting the trigger application and event, Pabbly Connect will generate a unique webhook URL. This URL is crucial as it will connect Elementor to Pabbly Connect. Copy this URL for the next steps.
Next, log into your Elementor account and open the form you created. Go to the ‘Actions After Submit’ section of the form settings and add a new action named ‘Webhook’. Paste the webhook URL you copied earlier. Click on the ‘Publish’ button to save your changes. This connects your Elementor form to Pabbly Connect.
4. Testing the Integration with Pabbly Connect

After submitting the form, return to your Pabbly Connect workflow. You should see that it captures the response from the form submission. This indicates that Elementor is successfully connected to Pabbly Connect. The captured data will include all the fields you submitted.
Once you confirm that the response is captured, you can proceed to set up the action step for sending WhatsApp messages using AiSensy. This will ensure that every new form submission triggers an automated WhatsApp message.
5. Setting Up Action to Send WhatsApp Messages
For the action application, select ‘WhatsApp by AiSensy’. Choose the action event as ‘Send Template Message’. Click on the ‘Connect’ button, and a window will prompt you to add a new connection. using Pabbly Connect
