1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Integration

To create a WordPress post from a Notion database, you need to access Pabbly Connect. Start by signing in as an existing user or create a new account if you are a new user. Pabbly Connect allows you to automate tasks between different applications seamlessly.

Once you are logged in, navigate to the Pabbly Connect dashboard. Here, you can create a new workflow by clicking on the ‘Create Workflow’ button. This will enable you to set up the integration between Notion and WordPress.

2. Creating a New Workflow in Pabbly Connect

In this section, you will create a workflow named ‘Create WordPress Post from Notion Database’. After clicking on the ‘Create Workflow’ button, you will be prompted to name your workflow and choose a folder to save it in. Select the folder named ‘WordPress’ to keep your integrations organized.

• Click on the ‘Create’ button to proceed.
• You will see a screen with options for trigger and action applications.

Now, select Notion as your trigger application and set the trigger event to ‘New Database Item’. This means that whenever a new item is added to your Notion database, it will trigger the action to create a post in WordPress through Pabbly Connect.

3. Setting Up Notion as the Trigger Application

To set up Notion as the trigger application, click on the connect button next to Notion. You will be prompted to log into your Notion account. After logging in, allow Pabbly Connect to access your Notion account.

Once connected, select the database ID that you want to use for this integration. For this example, choose the ‘WordPress Post’ database. This allows Pabbly Connect to monitor the database for any new entries that will trigger the subsequent action.

4. Connecting WordPress as the Action Application

Next, you need to set up WordPress as the action application. In Pabbly Connect, select WordPress and choose the action event as ‘Create a New Post’. This specifies that once a new item is detected in Notion, a new post will be created in WordPress.

• Enter your WordPress username or email, password, and the base URL of your WordPress site.
• Click on the connect button to establish the connection.

Once the connection is established, you will need to map the post title and content from Notion to the corresponding fields in WordPress. This mapping ensures that the data flows correctly between the two applications using Pabbly Connect.

5. Testing the Integration

After setting up the connections, it’s time to test the integration. Go back to your Notion database and add a new post title and content. Once you have added the information, return to Pabbly Connect and click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’.

If everything is set up correctly, you will receive a response indicating that the new post has been successfully created in WordPress. You can verify this by checking your WordPress dashboard to see the new post listed.

Conclusion

In this tutorial, you learned how to create a WordPress post from a Notion database using Pabbly Connect. This integration automates the process of transferring data between applications, saving you time and effort. By following these steps, you can streamline your content creation workflow effectively.
