1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Facebook and LinkedIn Integration

To automate sharing Facebook page posts on your LinkedIn company page, first, access Pabbly Connect. This platform allows seamless integration of various applications, making automation simple and effective.

Visit the Pabbly Connect homepage by typing ‘Pabbly.com/connect’ in your browser. Here you will find options to sign in or sign up for free. New users can create an account, receiving 100 free tasks monthly to explore the software.

2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect

After signing into Pabbly Connect, navigate to the dashboard. Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ option located in the top right corner. You will be prompted to name your workflow; enter ‘Share Facebook Page Post on LinkedIn Company Page’ and select a folder for organization.

• Click ‘Create’ to proceed to the next step.
• You will see two windows: Trigger and Action.
• Select Facebook Pages for the Trigger and LinkedIn for the Action.

Understanding the trigger-action relationship is crucial. The trigger initiates the workflow, while the action responds to that trigger. In this case, the trigger is a new post on Facebook, which will activate the action of posting on LinkedIn.

3. Setting Up Facebook as the Trigger

In the Trigger application, select ‘Facebook Pages’ and then choose the event ‘New Post.’ This event signifies that whenever a new post is made on the Facebook page, it will trigger the workflow. using Pabbly Connect

Click on ‘Connect’ and select ‘Add New Connection’ to link your Facebook account. Ensure you are logged into Facebook for a smooth connection. After successful authorization, choose the Facebook page you want to monitor, for instance, ‘Sparkle Evenings.’ Click ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to capture the response from a recent post.

• Create a new post on your selected Facebook page to test the connection.
• Once the post is created, check back in Pabbly Connect for the response.

After confirming that the response has been captured, you are ready to move on to the LinkedIn action setup.

4. Configuring LinkedIn as the Action

Next, select ‘LinkedIn’ as the Action application and choose ‘Create Company Text Post’ as the action event. Click on ‘Connect’ and again select ‘Add New Connection’ to link your LinkedIn account. using Pabbly Connect

After successful authorization, you will need to fill in several fields for the new LinkedIn post. Start with the organization name, which should be correctly selected as your company. Then, map the content from the Facebook post to the LinkedIn post.

Map the content to ensure that every new Facebook post is automatically reflected on LinkedIn. Enter the article preview URL, which can be the link to your Facebook page. Add a title and a description for your LinkedIn post.

After filling in all required fields, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to finalize the integration. You should see a confirmation that the LinkedIn post has been created successfully.

5. Testing the Integration Between Facebook and LinkedIn

To ensure the integration works smoothly, create a new post on your Facebook page. After posting, return to Pabbly Connect to verify that the response was captured correctly. This step confirms the trigger is functioning as expected.

Once the Facebook post is confirmed, check your LinkedIn company page to see if the post appeared automatically. If everything is set up correctly, the same content should be visible on LinkedIn, complete with a link back to the original Facebook post.

Verify that the LinkedIn post contains the correct content and link. If successful, your automation is now complete, allowing seamless sharing between platforms.

This integration using Pabbly Connect ensures that every new Facebook post is automatically shared on your LinkedIn company page, streamlining your social media management.
