1. Setting Up Pabbly Connect for Webhook Integration

To create a Campaign Monitor subscriber from a webhook response, start by accessing Pabbly Connect. Sign in to your account or create a new one to get started. Upon signing up, you receive 100 free tasks, which is great for testing your workflows.

Once logged in, navigate to the Pabbly Connect dashboard and click on the ‘Access Now’ button. From here, you can create a new workflow by selecting the ‘Create Workflow’ button on the right-hand corner and naming your workflow, such as ‘Create Campaign Monitor Subscriber from Webhook Response.’ This sets the stage for your integration.

2. Configuring the Webhook Trigger in Pabbly Connect

The next step in using Pabbly Connect is to configure the trigger. In this case, the trigger application will be ‘Webhook by Pabbly.’ Select this option, and a unique webhook URL will be generated for you. Make sure to copy this URL as it will be used to capture responses.

• Select ‘Webhook by Pabbly’ as your trigger application.
• Copy the generated webhook URL provided in the instructions.
• Ensure the webhook is set to wait for responses.

After copying the URL, you can proceed to your form application, such as Jotform. Integrate the webhook by pasting the copied URL into the Jotform settings under integrations. This will allow your form submissions to trigger the webhook, sending data back to Pabbly Connect.

3. Capturing the Webhook Response in Pabbly Connect

Once your webhook is set up, you can test it by submitting a form. Fill in the required fields, such as first name, last name, email, and phone number. After submission, return to Pabbly Connect to see the captured response. This response will include all the details submitted through the form.

The response received will confirm that the webhook is functioning correctly. You will see fields such as form ID, type, title, and the details you filled out. This step is crucial as it verifies that Pabbly Connect has successfully captured the data needed to create a subscriber in Campaign Monitor.

4. Adding a Subscriber to Campaign Monitor via Pabbly Connect

Now that you have the webhook response, the next step is to add a subscriber to Campaign Monitor. In Pabbly Connect, select ‘Campaign Monitor’ as your action application. The action event will be to ‘Add Subscriber.’ You will need to establish a connection between Pabbly Connect and Campaign Monitor by clicking on connect.

To establish this connection, you will be prompted to enter your API key and password from your Campaign Monitor account. Navigate to your Campaign Monitor account settings, find the API keys section, and copy your API key. Paste it back into Pabbly Connect, along with your password. This creates a secure connection for adding subscribers.

5. Mapping Fields and Testing the Integration

After establishing the connection, it’s time to map the fields. In Pabbly Connect, you need to select your client account and list ID where the subscriber will be added. Map the email address and name from the webhook response to the respective fields in Campaign Monitor. This ensures that every new submission will correctly update the subscriber list.

• Select the correct client account from the dropdown.
• Choose the list ID where subscribers will be added.
• Map the email and name fields from the captured webhook response.

Once mapping is complete, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to verify that the subscriber has been added successfully. Check your Campaign Monitor account to confirm that the new subscriber appears in your selected list. This integration will now automatically add subscribers whenever a new webhook response is captured, demonstrating the power of Pabbly Connect.
