1. Setting Up Pabbly Connect for WooCommerce and Facebook

To share WooCommerce products on Facebook groups automatically, the first step is to set up Pabbly Connect. This powerful integration platform allows you to automate tasks between WooCommerce and Facebook seamlessly. Start by logging into your Pabbly Connect account or create a new one for free.

Once logged in, navigate to the dashboard and click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button. You will need to name your workflow, such as ‘Share WooCommerce Products on Facebook Group Automatically,’ and select a folder for organization. After this, click on the ‘Create’ button to proceed.

2. Configuring the Trigger in Pabbly Connect

The next step involves setting up the trigger in Pabbly Connect. For our case, we want to trigger the workflow whenever a new product is created in WooCommerce. In the trigger section, select WooCommerce as the application and choose the event ‘New Product Created.’ This will initiate the workflow each time a new product is added.

After selecting the trigger event, Pabbly Connect will provide a webhook URL. You need to copy this URL and go to your WooCommerce settings. Follow these steps to set up the webhook:

• Navigate to WooCommerce > Settings > Advanced > Webhooks.
• Click on ‘Add Webhook’ and fill in the details.
• Paste the webhook URL from Pabbly Connect in the ‘Delivery URL’ field.
• Set the status to ‘Active’ and select the topic as ‘Product Created.’

After saving the webhook, return to Pabbly Connect and click on ‘Capture Webhook Response’ to test the integration. This will allow Pabbly Connect to receive the product details when a new product is created.

3. Testing the WooCommerce to Pabbly Connect Integration

Now that the trigger is set up, it’s time to test the integration. Go back to your WooCommerce dashboard and add a new product. Fill in the product details, including the name, description, price, and image. Once you publish the product, Pabbly Connect will capture the details via the webhook.

Check the response in Pabbly Connect to ensure that all product data has been received correctly. You should see the product name, description, price, and image URL captured as part of the webhook response. This confirms that the connection between WooCommerce and Pabbly Connect is working successfully.

4. Connecting Facebook to Pabbly Connect

With the WooCommerce integration tested, the next step is to connect Facebook to Pabbly Connect. In the action section of your workflow, select Facebook as the application and choose the action event ‘Create Post in Group.’ This allows you to share the product details on your Facebook group automatically.

To connect Facebook, click on ‘Add New Connection’ and authorize Pabbly Connect to access your Facebook account. Once connected, select the Facebook group where you want to share the product details. After that, map the fields from the webhook response to the Facebook post fields, including the product name, description, image URL, and product link.

• Map the product name to the post message.
• Include the product description and price in the message.
• Add the product image URL to display the image in the post.

Once all fields are mapped, click the ‘Save’ button to finalize the action setup in Pabbly Connect.

5. Finalizing the Automation Workflow

After configuring both the trigger and action in Pabbly Connect, your automation workflow is nearly complete. To finalize the setup, ensure that the Pabbly Connect app is installed in your Facebook group settings. This is crucial for the automation to work correctly.

Once everything is set, test the workflow by adding another new product in WooCommerce. Check your Facebook group to see if the product details are shared automatically. If everything is set up correctly, you will see a post with the product information, including the name, price, description, and image.

This automation allows you to streamline your marketing efforts by sharing new products with your community without manual intervention. With Pabbly Connect, you can automate this process and focus on other aspects of your business.
