3. Setting Up Trigger and Action in Pabbly Connect

In the trigger section, search for ‘Facebook Messenger’ and select it as your trigger application. The trigger event should be set to ‘New Message Sent to Page.’ This means that whenever a new message arrives on your Facebook page, it will activate the workflow.

Next, move to the action section and search for ‘Microsoft Excel’. Choose the action event as ‘Add Row to Worksheet.’ This will facilitate adding the message details into a new row in your specified Excel worksheet.

4. Testing the Integration with Facebook Messenger

After successfully connecting to Facebook Messenger, select the Facebook page you want to integrate. In this case, it’s the ‘Kitchen Cuddles’ page. Click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to initiate a test submission.

To complete the test, send a message to your Facebook page from another account. For instance, you can use an incognito window to send a message like, ‘I would like to know more about modular kitchen.’ Once the message is sent, return to Pabbly Connect to see if the message details have been captured in the response.

You should see the message details, including the sender’s name and the message content. This confirms that the trigger is working as intended.

This step verifies that your integration is functional, meaning any new messages will be captured in real-time via Pabbly Connect.

After the successful connection, select the correct workbook and worksheet where you want the data to be stored. This will automatically be detected by Pabbly Connect. Now, you will map the data fields from the previous response, including first name, last name, and message.

Mapping ensures that each new response updates the Excel sheet dynamically. Click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to finalize the integration.

If everything is set up correctly, you will receive a positive response confirming that the message details have been added to your Microsoft Excel sheet. Now, your integration is complete, and every new message will automatically populate in Excel.
