1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Shopify Notifications

To start automating notifications for Shopify orders, you first need to access Pabbly Connect. This platform allows you to integrate various applications with ease. Simply sign in to your existing account or create a new one if you are a first-time user.

After signing up, you will receive 100 free tasks to test your automations. Once logged in, navigate to the dashboard and locate the ‘Create Workflow’ option on the right-hand side. Click on it to proceed with setting up your workflow.

2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect

In this section, we will create a workflow that will notify your team whenever a new order is placed on Shopify. Start by naming your workflow; for instance, ‘Notification for Shopify Order Instantly’.

• Click on ‘Create’ to initiate the workflow.
• Select ‘Shopify’ as the trigger application.
• Choose ‘New Order’ as the trigger event.

After selecting the trigger, you will receive a webhook URL. This URL is essential for connecting Shopify with Pabbly Connect. Copy this URL as you will need it in the next steps to set up the webhook in your Shopify account.

3. Setting Up Webhook in Shopify

Now that you have the webhook URL from Pabbly Connect, go to your Shopify account. Navigate to ‘Settings’ and then to ‘Notifications’. Here, you will create a new webhook.

• Select ‘Create Webhook’.
• Choose ‘Order Creation’ as the event.
• Set the format to JSON and paste the copied webhook URL.
• Save the webhook to complete the setup.

This webhook will send a notification to Pabbly Connect every time a new order is created on Shopify. Once saved, you will need to conduct a test submission to ensure the data is captured correctly.

4. Testing the Integration with Pabbly Connect

With the webhook set up, it’s time to test the integration. Go back to your Shopify account and create a new order. Fill in the necessary details and complete the purchase.

After processing the order, return to Pabbly Connect. You should see the data from the new order captured in the webhook response. This includes the order details such as product name, customer email, and more.

Once you confirm that the data is received correctly, you can proceed to set up the action application, which in this case is ClickSend. This will allow you to send SMS notifications based on the new order data received.

5. Configuring ClickSend for SMS Notifications

Now that you have confirmed the webhook is working, the next step is to set up ClickSend in Pabbly Connect. Select ClickSend as your action application and choose ‘Send SMS’ as the action event.

To connect ClickSend with Pabbly Connect, you will need to log into your ClickSend account and retrieve your API credentials. Enter these credentials into Pabbly Connect to establish the connection.

Fill in the recipient’s phone number (static for team notifications). Compose the message using mapped fields from the Shopify order. Click ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to verify SMS sending.

Once you confirm that the SMS is sent successfully, your integration is complete. You can now receive instant notifications via SMS whenever a new order is placed on Shopify.

Conclusion

In this tutorial, we demonstrated how to use Pabbly Connect to automate SMS notifications for new Shopify orders. By following these steps, you can set up efficient notifications that keep your team informed in real-time.
