If you are a new user, click on the ‘Sign up free’ button to get started with 300 tasks every month. Existing users can simply sign in to their accounts. After signing in, you will be directed to the dashboard where you can create a new workflow.


2. Creating a New Workflow in Pabbly Connect

In this step, you will create a new workflow in Pabbly Connect. Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button located at the top right corner of the dashboard. A dialog box will appear asking you to name your workflow.

  • Name your workflow, for example, ‘Create Subscriber in MailerLite on Jotform Submission’.
  • Select a folder for your workflow, such as ‘Automations’.

After filling in these details, click on the ‘Create’ button to proceed. You will now see the workflow setup where you can define your trigger and action.


3. Setting Up the Trigger with Jotform

In this section, the trigger application will be Jotform, which will activate the automation process in Pabbly Connect. Select Jotform as your trigger application and choose the event as ‘New Response’.

Pabbly Connect will provide you with a webhook URL, which you need to copy. Now, log in to your Jotform account, select your form (named ‘Lead Form’), and navigate to the settings. Under ‘Integrations’, choose ‘Webhooks’ and click on ‘Edit Integration’.

  • Remove any previously existing webhook links.
  • Paste the copied webhook URL from Pabbly Connect.

After pasting, click on ‘Complete Integration’. You should see a message indicating that the integration is ready.


4. Action Step: Creating a Subscriber in MailerLite

Now, you will set up the action step in Pabbly Connect. Choose MailerLite as your action application and select the action event as ‘Create or Update Subscriber’. Click on the connect button to build a new connection.

You will need to provide an API token to connect MailerLite with Pabbly Connect. Log in to your MailerLite account, navigate to ‘Integrations’, and click on ‘API’. Generate a new token by clicking on ‘Generate New Token’ and name it, for example, ‘Jotform’.

Copy the generated API token. Paste it back into Pabbly Connect and click on ‘Save’.

After saving, map the required fields like email, first name, last name, and phone number from the Jotform response to the MailerLite fields. Finally, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to ensure everything is working correctly.


5. Testing the Automation Process

After setting up the integration in Pabbly Connect, it’s time to test the automation. Go back to your Jotform lead form and fill it out with test data. For example, enter a first name, last name, phone number, and email, then submit the form.

Once the form is submitted, return to Pabbly Connect and check if the response has been received successfully. You should see the subscriber created in your MailerLite account with the test email you used.

If the subscriber appears in MailerLite, the automation is working as expected. You can continue testing with different submissions to ensure reliability.
