1. Integrating Google Sheets and Blogger with Pabbly Connect

The integration of Pabbly Connect with Google Sheets and Blogger allows you to automate the process of creating blog posts. This is particularly useful when you want to publish content directly from a spreadsheet without manual input. In this section, we will set up the integration step by step.

To begin, we will create a workflow in Pabbly Connect. First, log in to your account and navigate to the dashboard. Click on ‘Create Workflow’ and name it appropriately, such as ‘Create Blogger Post from Google Sheets.’ Select a folder to save this workflow and proceed to set up the trigger and action.

2. Setting Up the Trigger in Google Sheets

The first critical step in this integration is to set up the trigger using Google Sheets. For this, select Google Sheets as your trigger application in Pabbly Connect. You will then need to choose the trigger event, which is ‘New or Updated Spreadsheet Row.’ This means that every time a new row is added or updated, it will trigger an action.

Next, you need to connect your Google Sheets account to Pabbly Connect. This involves copying the webhook URL provided by Pabbly Connect and pasting it into the Google Sheets add-on. Follow these steps:

• Go to Google Sheets and select Extensions.
• Click on Add-ons and then on Get Add-ons.
• Search for Pabbly Connect Webhooks and install it.

Now, paste the webhook URL into the add-on and specify the trigger column, which in this case is the last data column where changes will be detected.

3. Configuring the Action in Blogger

After setting up the trigger, the next step is to configure the action to create a post in Blogger. In Pabbly Connect, select Blogger as your action application. The action event you need to choose is ‘Create a Post.’ This will allow you to generate a new post based on the data from the Google Sheets row.

To connect your Blogger account, click on ‘Add New Connection’ and sign in using your Google account. Once connected, you will need to map the fields from Google Sheets to Blogger. This includes mapping the blog ID, title, and content. You can retrieve the blog ID from your Blogger account and map the title and content from the response received from Google Sheets.

After mapping these fields, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request.’ If everything is set up correctly, you will receive a response confirming that a new post has been created in your Blogger account. You can verify this by refreshing your Blogger dashboard and checking for the new post.

4. Automating the Workflow for Continuous Updates

To ensure that your workflow operates continuously, you need to set it to listen for new entries in Google Sheets. This is done by going back to the Google Sheets add-on and selecting ‘Send on Event’ under Pabbly Connect Webhooks. This setting ensures that every time a new row is added or an existing row is updated, the workflow will trigger automatically. using Pabbly Connect

Now, whenever you add a new blog topic or content in your Google Sheets, it will automatically create a new post in Blogger. This seamless integration saves time and reduces the risk of errors in manual data entry.

For example, if you add a new row with the blog topic ‘Testing Post’ and the content, it will create a corresponding post in your Blogger account. You can verify this by checking your Blogger dashboard for the new entry.
