After saving, your workflow is now scheduled to run based on your defined settings. This feature of Pabbly Connect is crucial for automating email sending without manual intervention.

3. Integrating Google Sheets with Pabbly Connect

To pull recipient data for your emails, you need to integrate Google Sheets into your Pabbly Connect workflow. Select Google Sheets as the action app and choose the ‘Get Rows’ action event. Click on the connect button to link your Google account.

Once connected, Pabbly Connect will fetch the recipient data, allowing you to send personalized emails to each entry in your spreadsheet.

After retrieving the data from Google Sheets, the next step in your Pabbly Connect workflow is to send emails using Gmail. Add a new action and select Gmail as the app, then choose ‘Send Email’ as the action event.

You will need to connect your Gmail account to Pabbly Connect. Once connected, you can map the recipient’s email address from the previous step (the iterator step) to personalize each email. Here’s how to configure the email settings:

Set the recipient’s email address from the iterator data. Define the subject and body of the email, including personalized fields. Attach any necessary files, such as PDF documents from Google Drive.
