Once you’ve filled in the required information, click the ‘Create’ button to finalize your workflow setup. This workflow will consist of a trigger and an action, which are essential steps in the automation process.


3. Setting Up the Trigger in Pabbly Connect

  • Copy the webhook URL provided by Pabbly Connect.
  • Log in to your Instamojo account and navigate to the settings of your product page.
  • In the Webhook section, toggle the button to add the webhook URL and set the information to be sent as successful payments.

After saving the changes, return to your Pabbly Connect workflow and check if it is waiting for a webhook response. This indicates that your trigger setup is complete and ready for testing.

To test the integration, perform a test payment using the Instamojo link. Fill in the required customer details such as name, email, and phone number. Once the payment is successful, Pabbly Connect will capture the response. using Pabbly Connect

Next, set up the action step in your workflow. Select ‘Xero’ as the action application and choose ‘Create a Contact’ as the action event. Click the ‘Connect’ button to authorize Pabbly Connect to access your Xero account.

Allow Pabbly Connect to access your Xero account by clicking on ‘Allow Access’. Map the customer details received from Instamojo to the respective fields in Xero.

Make sure to separate the first name and last name if they are combined in the response. Use the Text Formatter by Pabbly to split the names as needed. After mapping all the required fields, click on ‘Save and Test Request’ to validate the action.


5. Finalizing the Integration and Review

After successfully testing the action, check your Xero account to confirm that the new contact has been created. Refresh the contacts page in Xero, and you should see the new entry reflecting the customer details from Instamojo.
