1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Integration

To automate email sending to real estate leads, you need to access Pabbly Connect. Start by creating a free account on the platform, which can be done in just a few minutes. Once logged in, you will have access to the dashboard where you can create workflows that connect various applications.

After logging into Pabbly Connect, click on the blue button labeled ‘Create Workflow’ to begin. Provide a name for your workflow, such as ‘Send Email to Real Estate Leads Added to Housing.com.’ This naming helps in identifying the workflow later.

2. Setting Up Trigger and Action in Pabbly Connect

In Pabbly Connect, the next step is to set up the trigger and action. The trigger is the event that starts the workflow, while the action is what happens as a result. For this integration, select ‘Housing.com’ as the trigger application and choose the event ‘New Leads.’ This means that every time a new lead is captured on Housing.com, the workflow will trigger.

• Select ‘Housing.com’ as the trigger application.
• Choose the event ‘New Leads’ to capture incoming leads.
• Copy the provided webhook URL for later use.

Once you have set the trigger, follow the instructions to capture the webhook response. This involves contacting your account manager to set up the webhook URL so that new lead data can be captured automatically in Pabbly Connect.

3. Configuring Gmail Action to Send Emails

After setting up the trigger, the next step in Pabbly Connect is to configure the action, which will be sending an email via Gmail. Select Gmail as the action application and choose the event ‘Send Email.’ This action will enable you to send an email automatically to the lead.

Click on ‘Connect’ and then choose to add a new connection to your Gmail account. You will need to provide access to your Gmail so that Pabbly Connect can send emails on your behalf. Once connected, you will fill in the required fields for the email, including the recipient’s email address, which will be dynamically mapped from the lead data captured earlier.

• Map the recipient email address from the captured lead data.
• Fill in the subject line and body of the email.
• Choose whether to send a plain text or HTML email.

Make sure to customize the email content, including formatting options if you choose HTML. This allows you to create a visually appealing email that captures the lead’s attention.

4. Finalizing the Workflow in Pabbly Connect

Now that you have set up both the trigger and action in Pabbly Connect, it’s time to finalize the workflow. Review all the settings to ensure that the trigger captures new leads correctly and that the action sends emails as intended. Click on the ‘Save’ button to save your workflow.

Once saved, you can test the workflow by submitting a new lead through Housing.com. If everything is configured correctly, Pabbly Connect will automatically send an email to the lead’s email address, confirming their interest in your property.

Check your Gmail account to verify that the email has been sent successfully. This confirms that the integration between Housing.com and Gmail via Pabbly Connect is working perfectly. You can now sit back and let the automation handle your email communications with new leads.
