1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Automation

To start automating your YouTube video sharing, access Pabbly Connect by visiting their official website. Create an account or sign in if you already have one.

Once logged in, you will see the dashboard where you can select various Pabbly applications. Click on the Pabbly Connect icon to begin the integration process.

2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect

Creating a workflow is essential for automating tasks. In Pabbly Connect, click on the “Create Workflow” button in the top right corner. Name your workflow something relevant, like ‘YouTube to Social Media Sharing’.

• Choose a folder to save your workflow.
• Click on the create button to finalize your workflow setup.

Your workflow is now created, and you will see two sections: Trigger and Action. This is where you will define how Pabbly Connect will respond to your actions.

3. Setting Up the Trigger with YouTube

The first step in your workflow is to set up the trigger. Click on the trigger application and select YouTube. Choose the trigger event as ‘New Video in Channel with Video URL’.

Next, connect your YouTube account to Pabbly Connect. You will need to authorize the connection by clicking on ‘Allow’ when prompted. After authorization, select your channel ID where you will publish the videos.

• Click on the ‘Save and Send Test Request’ button.
• Ensure you have published a new video to capture the response.

Once you receive the response, it confirms that YouTube is successfully integrated with Pabbly Connect. You can now proceed to set up the action steps.

4. Sharing the YouTube Video on Social Media

With the trigger set up, it’s time to share your video on social media. For the first action, select Facebook Pages as the action application. Choose the action event as ‘Create Page Post’.

Connect your Facebook account to Pabbly Connect and select the page where you want the post to appear. Map the title and video URL from the YouTube trigger response into the message field for the Facebook post.

Click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to post on Facebook. Verify the post on your Facebook page.

After confirming the Facebook post, you can add another action to share the video on X (formerly Twitter) using a similar process. Select X as the action application and create a tweet with the video title and URL.

5. Testing and Confirming Your Automation

After setting up both action steps, it’s crucial to test your automation. Click on the ‘Save and Send Test Request’ for the X action to ensure the tweet is posted correctly.

Check your X account to verify that the tweet has been successfully created. If both posts appear on Facebook and X, your Pabbly Connect automation is working perfectly!

Adjust any settings if necessary, and remember that you can always edit your workflow in Pabbly Connect to improve automation further.

Conclusion

Using Pabbly Connect allows content creators to automate sharing YouTube videos across social media platforms seamlessly. This automation boosts engagement and saves time, enhancing overall channel performance.
