After clicking on ‘Create Workflow’, you need to name your workflow. For this tutorial, name it ‘Capture Webhook Response in Microsoft Excel’. You can also select a folder to organize your workflows.

• Name your workflow appropriately.
• Select a folder for better organization.

Once your workflow is created, you will see options for setting up triggers and actions. This is where Pabbly Connect facilitates the automation process by allowing you to connect various applications seamlessly.

3. Setting Up the Webhook Trigger

Now, let’s set up the trigger for your workflow. Select ‘Webhook by Pabbly’ as your trigger application. Next, choose the trigger event as ‘Receive Webhook’. You will be provided with a unique webhook URL.

This URL will be used to connect your forms or other applications to Pabbly Connect. Copy the webhook URL to use in your form integration. This step is crucial as it allows Pabbly Connect to capture the data sent from your application.

4. Configuring Microsoft Excel as the Action Step

After setting up your webhook trigger, the next step is to configure Microsoft Excel as the action application. Select ‘Microsoft Excel’ from the action application list and choose the action event as ‘Add Row’. This action will allow you to send data captured from the webhook into your Excel sheet.

In this step, you will need to map the data fields from the webhook response to the corresponding columns in your Excel sheet. For example, map the first name, last name, email, and phone number from the webhook response to the respective columns in Excel. This mapping is essential for ensuring that the data is organized correctly.

• Select the correct workbook and worksheet.
• Map the fields accurately to ensure data integrity.

Once mapping is completed, click on the ‘Save’ button to finalize the action setup. This will enable Pabbly Connect to automate the process of adding rows to your Excel sheet whenever a new webhook response is received.

5. Testing the Integration with Dummy Data

To ensure everything is set up correctly, it’s time to test the integration. Go back to your form and submit a test entry with dummy data. For instance, enter a first name, last name, email, and a random phone number.

After submission, return to Pabbly Connect and check if the webhook response has been captured successfully. You should see the data you entered reflected in the workflow. This confirms that your integration between Webhook and Microsoft Excel via Pabbly Connect is functioning as intended.
