To start automating Instagram posts for new WooCommerce products, you need to access Pabbly Connect. First, visit the Pabbly Connect website and log in to your account. If you are a new user, you can sign up for free and get 100 tasks each month.

Once logged in, you will see the dashboard. Here, you can create workflows that automate various processes. Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button to begin setting up your automation.

2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect

In this step, you will create a workflow that connects WooCommerce and Instagram. Start by naming your workflow, such as ‘Post New WooCommerce Product on Instagram’. Choose a folder to save your workflow, like ‘Instagram Automations’. using Pabbly Connect

• Name the workflow.
• Select a folder for organization.
• Click ‘Create’ to finalize your workflow.

After creating the workflow, you will see two sections: Trigger and Action. The Trigger section is where you define the event that starts the automation, while the Action section specifies what happens when the trigger occurs.

3. Setting Up the Trigger with WooCommerce

The next step involves setting up the Trigger. For this automation, select ‘WooCommerce’ as your trigger application. The specific event you want to capture is ‘New Product Created’. This means that every time a new product is added to WooCommerce, Pabbly Connect will capture that event. using Pabbly Connect

Once you select the trigger event, Pabbly Connect will provide a unique Webhook URL. Copy this URL to connect WooCommerce with Pabbly Connect. Log in to your WooCommerce account and navigate to Settings > Advanced > Webhooks to add a new Webhook.

• Paste the Webhook URL from Pabbly Connect.
• Name your Webhook, e.g., ‘New Product Created’.
• Set the status to Active and select the topic as ‘Product Created’.

After saving the Webhook, return to Pabbly Connect and ensure that it captures the response correctly. You can do this by creating a test product in WooCommerce to verify the connection.

4. Setting Up the Action with Instagram

Now that you have set up the trigger, it’s time to define the action. Select ‘Instagram for Business’ as your action application and choose the event ‘Publish Photo’. This will allow you to post the product image to your Instagram account automatically. using Pabbly Connect

Click on the ‘Connect’ button to link your Instagram account. Ensure you are logged into your Instagram on a new tab for easier authorization. After successful authorization, select the Instagram account you want to use.

Map the photo URL from the previous WooCommerce step. Create a caption that includes the product name and sale price. Click ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to finalize the action setup.

Once the action is set up, you will see a positive response indicating that the photo has been published on your Instagram account.
