1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Automation

To start automating user creation and enrollment in Thinkific, access Pabbly Connect by signing in to your account. If you are a new user, you can sign up for free and enjoy 100 free tasks each month. Once logged in, navigate to the dashboard where you can see all your applications.

In the dashboard, locate and select Pabbly Connect by clicking on the ‘Access Now’ button. This will take you to the main interface where you can create a new workflow for your automation process.

2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect

To create a workflow in Pabbly Connect, click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button in the top right corner. A dialog box will appear, prompting you to name your workflow. You can name it something like ‘Automatically Create and Enroll Users in Thinkific on Successful Instamojo Payments’.

• Click on the folder selection to choose where to save your workflow.
• Select a specific folder, such as ‘Instamojo Automations’.
• After naming and selecting a folder, click on ‘Create’ to proceed.

After creating the workflow, you will see two sections: Trigger and Action. The trigger is what starts the automation, while the action is the response to that trigger. In this case, the trigger will be a successful payment through Instamojo.

3. Setting Up the Trigger in Pabbly Connect

For the trigger application, select Instamojo V1 since the goal is to capture successful payments. Choose the trigger event as ‘New Sale’. This ensures that whenever a payment is successful, Pabbly Connect captures that event.

After selecting the trigger, Pabbly Connect will provide a webhook URL. Copy this URL and go to your Instamojo account to connect it.

• Open the settings of your Instamojo smart page.
• Enable the webhook option and paste the copied URL.
• Select ‘Successful Payments’ as the information to send.

Save the changes in your Instamojo settings. Now, return to your Pabbly Connect workflow, where it will indicate that it is waiting for a webhook response. This confirms that your setup is ready to capture payment data.

4. Processing Payment Response in Pabbly Connect

To test the integration, perform a dummy payment through your Instamojo smart page. Fill in the required customer information and complete the payment. Once the payment is processed, Pabbly Connect will capture the response, indicating the payment status and details such as payment ID and amount.

Check the Pabbly Connect workflow to confirm that the payment response has been recorded. You should see details like the payment status as ‘Success’, the amount, and customer information, which verifies that the integration is functioning correctly.

Verify the captured details such as currency and customer information. Ensure that all necessary data is available for the next steps in the workflow.

This successful capture means that you can now proceed to set up the action steps for user creation and enrollment in Thinkific.

5. Creating User and Enrolling in Thinkific via Pabbly Connect

Now that you have the payment details, it’s time to create a user in Thinkific. For the action application, select Thinkific and the action event as ‘Create User’. Connect your Thinkific account by providing the required subdomain and authorizing the connection through Pabbly Connect.

Map the data from the previous step to create the user. You will need to fill in the first name, last name, email, and password. For the password, you can use a simple format like ‘firstname.lastname123’ to maintain consistency.

Ensure you map the first and last names correctly using data from the payment response. Skip any unnecessary fields that are not required for user creation.

After creating the user, add another action step to enroll the user in the desired course in Thinkific. Select the action event as ‘Enroll User’ and map the user ID from the previous step. This completes the automation, ensuring that every successful payment results in a new user being created and enrolled in the course.

This tutorial demonstrated how to automate user creation and enrollment in Thinkific using Pabbly Connect and Instamojo payments. By following these steps, you can streamline your process, saving time and improving efficiency in managing your online courses.
