1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Automation

To begin integrating Facebook leads with Google Sheets, first access Pabbly Connect by visiting its homepage. Simply type ‘Pabbly.com/connect’ in your browser to reach the platform where automation and integration are made easy.

Once on the homepage, you will see two options: ‘Sign In’ and ‘Sign Up for Free.’ Existing users can click ‘Sign In,’ while new users should select ‘Sign Up for Free’ to create an account. After signing in, you will gain access to the Pabbly Connect dashboard, where you can manage your workflows.


2. Creating a New Workflow in Pabbly Connect

After accessing the dashboard of Pabbly Connect, you can create a new workflow by clicking on the ‘Create Workflow’ button located at the top right corner. A dialog box will appear, prompting you to name your workflow. For this integration, name it ‘Add Facebook Leads to Google Sheets Automatically’ and select the appropriate folder for organization.

  • Click on ‘Create’ to proceed.
  • You will see two sections: Trigger and Action.
  • Select Facebook Lead Ads for Trigger and Google Sheets for Action.

Once you have set this up, you are ready to configure the trigger event to capture new leads from Facebook.


3. Configuring Facebook Lead Ads as Trigger

In this section, select ‘Facebook Lead Ads’ as your trigger application in Pabbly Connect. The next step is to choose the trigger event, which should be ‘New Lead Instant.’ This event will activate the workflow whenever a new lead is generated through your Facebook ads.

Click on ‘Connect’ and choose ‘Add New Connection’ to establish a connection with Facebook Lead Ads. You will be prompted to log into your Facebook account. Once logged in, select the specific Facebook page and the lead generation form associated with it. For example, you might select your page called ‘Sparkle Evenings’ and the form named ‘Event Registration Form’.


4. Testing the Integration with Pabbly Connect

After setting up the trigger, it’s crucial to test the integration to ensure it works correctly. You will need to submit a test lead through the form you selected earlier. Use the Metaphor Developer Tools to simulate a lead submission. Select the page and form, then fill in the required details, such as name, email, and contact number.

  • Enter a full name, email, and contact number in the preview form.
  • Click ‘Next’ and then ‘Submit’ to send the test response.

Once the test submission is complete, return to Pabbly Connect to see if the response has been captured. You should see the details of the lead displayed, confirming that the integration is working as intended.


5. Sending Data to Google Sheets

Now that the Facebook lead data is captured, the next step is to send this information to Google Sheets. In the Action application, select ‘Google Sheets’ and choose the action event ‘Add New Row.’ Click on ‘Connect’ and then select ‘Add New Connection’ to link your Google Sheets account with Pabbly Connect.

After authorizing the connection, select the spreadsheet where you want to store the lead data. In this case, choose the spreadsheet named ‘Sparkle Events.’ Then, map the data fields from the Facebook lead response to the corresponding columns in your Google Sheets, such as name, email, contact number, and age.

Finally, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to ensure that the data is correctly added to your spreadsheet. Check your Google Sheets to confirm that a new row has been created with the lead details.
