Once logged in, click on the Access Now button under Pabbly Connect to reach the dashboard. Here, you will see various options, including the workflow section, where you can manage your integrations effectively.

2. Creating a New Workflow in Pabbly Connect

To create a new workflow, click on the Create Workflow button. You will need to name your workflow, for example, ‘Auto Share YouTube Videos on Facebook Page’. Make sure to select the folder where you want to save this workflow.

• Click on the Create button to proceed.
• You will see two boxes: Trigger and Action.
• Set up the Trigger first, which will be YouTube in this case.

After naming your workflow, you will be directed to a new screen. Here, you will set up your trigger application, which is YouTube, and select the trigger event as ‘New Video in Channel with Video URL’. This is crucial for automating the sharing process.

3. Connecting YouTube to Pabbly Connect

To connect YouTube, click on the Connect button and select Add New Connection. You will need to authorize access to your YouTube account by clicking Continue. Once the connection is successful, you will be prompted to select your Channel ID.

Open the tab that displays your channel IDs and select the appropriate one, such as your demo channel. After this setup, go back to YouTube and publish a new video to test the integration.

4. Setting Up Facebook Integration with Pabbly Connect

Now that you have connected YouTube, it’s time to set up the action application, which is Facebook Pages. Search for Facebook in the action application field and select it. The action event you need is Create Page Post.

• Click Connect and add a new connection to your Facebook account.
• Authorize access by clicking Continue.
• Select your Facebook page from the dropdown list.

After selecting your page, map the message for your post by retrieving the description of your YouTube video. This is done through the mapping feature in Pabbly Connect, which allows real-time data updates.

5. Finalizing the Integration and Testing

Once you have filled in all the details, including the message and video URL, click on the Save and Send Test Request button. A positive response will confirm that a new post has been created on your Facebook page.

To verify, refresh your Facebook page to see the new post. It should contain the same video and description that you uploaded on YouTube. This confirms that your integration between YouTube and Facebook via Pabbly Connect is functioning correctly.
