With the workflow created, you will see two main sections: Trigger and Action. The Trigger section will capture the event from Follow Up Boss, while the Action section will execute the task in Google Contacts.

In this step, we will set up the trigger for our workflow. Click on the arrow in the Trigger section to choose your trigger application. Select ‘Follow Up Boss’ as your trigger application.

Next, select the trigger event as ‘New Person Added’. This means every time a new person is created in Follow Up Boss, Pabbly Connect will capture this event. Click on the ‘Connect’ button to establish the connection.

  • You will need to enter your API key from Follow Up Boss.

To obtain the API key, log in to your Follow Up Boss account, navigate to the Admin section, and find the API option. Create a new API key, copy it, and paste it into Pabbly Connect. After saving this, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to ensure everything is set up correctly.


4. Configuring the Action in Pabbly Connect

After successfully capturing the trigger, we need to set up the action step. Click on the add button to select the action application, which will also be ‘Follow Up Boss’. Choose the action event as ‘Get a Person’. This action will retrieve the details of the newly added person using the ID captured from the trigger. using Pabbly Connect

Now that we have the person’s details, we will set up the final action step to create a Google contact. Select ‘Google Contacts’ as the action application and choose the action event as ‘Create Contact’. This will allow Pabbly Connect to automatically create a contact in Google Contacts whenever a new person is added in Follow Up Boss.

Click on ‘Connect’ and authorize Pabbly Connect to access your Google Contacts. Once authorized, you will need to map the required fields such as first name, last name, email, and phone number from the previous step.
