Once logged into Pabbly Connect, you need to create a new workflow. Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button, and a pop-up will appear for naming your workflow. Name it something descriptive, like ‘Send WhatsApp Message on Elementor Form Submission’.
- Select a folder to save your workflow.
- Click on ‘Create’ to proceed.
This will direct you to the workflow setup page, where you will configure your trigger and action steps. The trigger indicates what event will start the workflow, and the action defines what will happen in response.
3. Setting Up the Trigger with Elementor
For this integration, the trigger application will be Elementor. Search for Elementor in the trigger application section and select it. Next, you need to choose the trigger event, which in this case is ‘New Form Submission’.
After selecting the trigger event, you will need to connect Elementor with Pabbly Connect. This is done using a webhook URL that acts as a bridge between Elementor and Pabbly Connect. Copy the provided webhook URL and proceed to your WordPress site where your Elementor form is located.
4. Configuring Your Elementor Form to Connect with Pabbly Connect
Edit your Elementor form by clicking on the pencil icon. Scroll to the ‘Actions After Submit’ section and click the plus icon to add a new action. Search for ‘Webhook’ and select it.
- Paste the webhook URL you copied from Pabbly Connect.
- Click on ‘Update’ to save your changes.
This successfully connects your Elementor form with Pabbly Connect. Now, when a new form submission occurs, it will trigger the workflow you have set up in Pabbly Connect.
5. Sending WhatsApp Messages Using Pabbly Connect
After setting up the trigger, you can now configure the action to send WhatsApp messages. The action application will be Ads Era. Select Ads Era and set the action event to ‘Send Template’.
You will need to connect Ads Era with Pabbly Connect by providing an API token, which you can find in your Ads Era account settings. Copy this token and paste it into the appropriate field in Pabbly Connect.
Next, map the mobile number and WhatsApp number of the potential customer from the Elementor form response. Select the template you created in Ads Era for sending the WhatsApp message. Make sure to customize the message template to include variables for personalization.
