After submitting, enable the ‘Send on Event’ option from the same menu. This allows the data from Google Sheets to be automatically sent to Pabbly Connect whenever a new row is added.


5. Creating a Contact in Keap Using Pabbly Connect

Now, it’s time to create a contact in Keap using the data from Google Sheets through Pabbly Connect. In your Pabbly Connect workflow, add an Action step, and select Keap as the application. Choose the action event ‘Create/Update Contact’. This action will create a new contact in your Keap account based on the data received from Google Sheets.

Connect your Keap account by clicking on ‘Connect’ and allowing the necessary permissions. Now, map the fields from the Google Sheets response to the Keap fields. For example, map the email address, first name, last name, and phone number to their respective fields in Keap.

To ensure that you don’t create duplicate contacts, set up a duplicate check using the email address.
