1. Introduction to Pabbly Connect for Mailercloud Integration

Pabbly Connect is a powerful automation tool that helps you integrate various applications seamlessly. In this tutorial, we will use Pabbly Connect to connect Elementor forms with Mailercloud, allowing you to create or update subscribers automatically upon form submissions. This integration simplifies your workflow and saves valuable time.

To start, log in to your Pabbly Connect account. If you don’t have an account, you can sign up for free and explore its features. Once logged in, you will be directed to the dashboard, where you can create a new workflow to begin the integration process.

2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect

To create a workflow in Pabbly Connect, click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button located at the top right corner of the dashboard. You will be prompted to name your workflow. For this integration, name it ‘Create or Update Mailercloud Subscriber on Elementor Form Submission’ and select a folder for organization.

• Click on the ‘Create’ button to finalize the workflow.
• You will see options for setting up a trigger and an action in your workflow.

Next, select your trigger application as Elementor. This is essential because you want to capture new leads from your Elementor form submissions. Choose the trigger event as ‘New Form Submission’ to ensure that every time a form is submitted, the workflow is activated.

3. Setting Up the Elementor Trigger

After selecting the trigger event, Pabbly Connect will provide you with a webhook URL. This URL is crucial for connecting your Elementor form to the workflow. Copy this URL, as you will need to paste it into your Elementor form settings.

Now, navigate to your WordPress dashboard, where Elementor is installed. Open the page containing your form and click on ‘Edit with Elementor’. Select the form element and go to the ‘Actions After Submit’ section. Here, add the action ‘Webhook’ and paste the copied webhook URL into the designated field.

4. Configuring the Mailercloud Action

Once your trigger is set up, it’s time to configure the action step in Pabbly Connect. Select Mailercloud as your action application and the event as ‘Create or Update Subscriber’. This step is crucial as it determines how the data from your Elementor form will be handled.

To connect Mailercloud with Pabbly Connect, you will need to enter your Mailercloud API key. Log in to your Mailercloud account, go to your profile, and create a new API key under the integrations section. Copy this key and return to Pabbly Connect to enter it in the API key field. Select the list where you want to add or update subscribers, which in this case is the ‘Website Leads’ list.

• Map the required fields such as email address, first name, and last name from the Elementor form submission.
• Leave optional fields blank unless you wish to include them.

After mapping the fields, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to ensure that the integration is working correctly. If successful, you will see a confirmation message indicating that the subscriber has been created or updated in Mailercloud.

5. Testing the Integration

To ensure everything is functioning as intended, it’s important to test the integration using Pabbly Connect. Go back to your Elementor form and submit a test entry with dummy data. For instance, enter a first name, last name, email, and other relevant details.

After submitting the form, return to Pabbly Connect to check if the webhook has received the data. You should see the test submission reflected in your workflow. If everything is set up correctly, the new subscriber will appear in your Mailercloud account under the specified list.

Repeat this process for additional test submissions to confirm that your automation is reliable and consistently updates Mailercloud subscribers as expected. This ensures that your lead capture process is both efficient and effective.
