Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect

In this section, we will create a workflow that automates the process of delivering files from Google Drive after a sale on WooCommerce. Start by clicking on the ‘Create Workflow’ button in the top right corner of the dashboard. using Pabbly Connect

When prompted, name your workflow something descriptive, like ‘Deliver Google Drive File on WooCommerce Sale’. Choose a folder to save your workflow in, such as ‘WooCommerce Automations’. Click ‘Create’ to proceed.

• Navigate to the top right corner and click ‘Create Workflow’.
• Name your workflow appropriately.
• Select the folder for saving the workflow.

After clicking ‘Create’, you will see two windows labeled Trigger and Action. The Trigger is what starts the workflow, and the Action is what happens in response. Let’s set up the trigger now.

Setting Up the Trigger in Pabbly Connect

For the trigger application, select Pabbly Connect and then choose WooCommerce as the application. We want to capture a new order, so select ‘New Order Created’ as the trigger event. This will allow Pabbly Connect to listen for new orders placed through WooCommerce.

After selecting the trigger event, Pabbly Connect will generate a unique webhook URL. Copy this URL, as it will be used to connect WooCommerce to Pabbly Connect.

• Select WooCommerce as the trigger application.
• Choose ‘New Order Created’ as the trigger event.
• Copy the generated webhook URL for use in WooCommerce.

Next, we will log into our WooCommerce account to set up the webhook using the copied URL.

Setting Up Webhook in WooCommerce

In your WooCommerce account, go to the settings panel and find the ‘Advanced’ option. Under ‘Advanced’, select ‘Webhooks’ and click on ‘Add Webhook’. Here, you will create a new webhook that will trigger Pabbly Connect whenever a new order is created. using Pabbly Connect

Fill in the details for the webhook: give it a name like ‘New Order Trigger’, set the status to active, and select the topic as ‘Order Created’. Paste the webhook URL that you copied from Pabbly Connect into the delivery URL field. Save the webhook to complete the setup.

Go to WooCommerce > Settings > Advanced > Webhooks. Click ‘Add Webhook’ to create a new webhook. Fill in the webhook details and paste the URL from Pabbly Connect.

After saving the webhook, return to Pabbly Connect and click on ‘Recapture Webhook Response’ to ensure that your WooCommerce and Pabbly Connect accounts are properly connected.

Setting Up File Delivery from Google Drive

Now that we have established the trigger, we need to set up the action to deliver the file from Google Drive. For the action application, select Google Drive and choose ‘Share a File’ as the action event. This will allow us to send the ebook file to the customer once they make a purchase. using Pabbly Connect

Click on ‘Connect’ and authorize Pabbly Connect to access your Google Drive account. Once authorized, select the file you want to share. Map the email address of the customer who made the purchase from the previous step so they receive the file.
