Once logged in, navigate to the dashboard and click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button. You will be prompted to name your workflow. In this case, name it ‘Send New Circle Member Data to Microsoft Excel’. This step is crucial as it sets the context for your integration.

2. Setting Up Circle as the Trigger Application

After naming your workflow, the next step involves setting up Circle as your trigger application in Pabbly Connect. In the trigger window, search for Circle and select it. You will then choose the trigger event, which in this case is ‘New Member’. This event will activate whenever a new member joins your Circle community.

• Search for Circle in the trigger application field.
• Select the ‘New Member’ trigger event.
• Click on the ‘Connect’ button to establish a connection.

To connect Circle with Pabbly Connect, you will need to provide the API token and host URL from your Circle account. This integration allows Pabbly Connect to capture member details automatically whenever a new member is added.

3. Testing the Circle Connection

Once you have set up the connection, it is essential to test it to ensure that Pabbly Connect can retrieve data from Circle. To do this, click on the ‘Save and Test Request’ button. This action will prompt you to create a test member in your Circle account.

Create a new member by filling in the required details such as name and email. For example, use ‘Dummy User’ as the name and ‘[email protected]’ as the email address. After inviting the member, you will see their status change to invited, indicating that the member has been successfully added.

4. Setting Up Microsoft Excel as the Action Application

After successfully testing the Circle connection, the next step is to set Microsoft Excel as the action application in Pabbly Connect. Search for Microsoft Excel and select it. The action event you need to choose is ‘Add Row to Worksheet’. This action will allow you to insert the member details into your Excel sheet.

Establish a connection with Microsoft Excel by clicking on the ‘Connect’ button. If you have an existing connection, you can use that; otherwise, sign in to your Microsoft account. Once connected, select the workbook and worksheet where you want to store the member information.

• Choose the workbook named ‘Circle’.
• Select the worksheet where data will be added.
• Map the member details from Circle to the corresponding columns in Excel.

Mapping is crucial as it ensures that the member’s name and email are correctly inserted into the Excel sheet. Once you have completed the mapping, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to verify that the integration works as intended.
