1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Integration

To import Facebook Lead Ads into Google Sheets, you first need to access Pabbly Connect. Start by signing into your Pabbly Connect account. If you are a new user, click on the ‘Sign up for free’ button to create an account and receive 100 free tasks.

Once logged in, navigate to the Pabbly Connect dashboard. Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button to initiate a new integration. Name your workflow something like ‘Import Facebook Lead Ads to Google Sheets’ and choose a relevant folder for organization.


2. Setting Up Facebook Lead Ads as Trigger

In this step, you will set up Facebook Lead Ads as your trigger application in Pabbly Connect. Select Facebook Lead Ads from the trigger application options. Then, choose the trigger event as ‘New Lead Instant’. This setup ensures that every time a new lead is generated, the workflow will be activated.

  • Search for Facebook Lead Ads and select it as the trigger application.
  • Choose ‘New Lead Instant’ as the trigger event.
  • Connect your Facebook account to Pabbly Connect.

After connecting, select the Facebook page and lead generation form associated with your ads. Make sure to note that you need to submit a test lead using the preview form button to see if the integration works correctly.


3. Testing the Trigger with Sample Submission

To ensure that the trigger setup in Pabbly Connect works correctly, perform a test submission. Navigate to the Meta for Developers page and access the Lead Ads Testing Tool. Select your Facebook page and the lead generation form you created earlier.

  • Select your page from the dropdown menu.
  • Choose the lead generation form to test.
  • Fill out the form with dummy data and submit it.

Once the form is submitted, return to Pabbly Connect to check if the test lead data has been captured. You should see the email, full name, and phone number listed in the webhook response.


4. Setting Up Google Sheets Action

Now that your trigger is working, it’s time to set up the action to add entries to Google Sheets using Pabbly Connect. Select Google Sheets as your action application. The action event will be ‘Add New Row’ to ensure that each new lead is logged in a new row.

Establish a connection between Google Sheets and Pabbly Connect by signing in with your Google account. Once connected, you will select the spreadsheet and the specific sheet where you want the data to be added. Ensure that your spreadsheet has columns for name, email, and phone number.


5. Mapping Data and Finalizing Integration

In this final step, you will map the data from the Facebook lead response to the appropriate fields in Google Sheets using Pabbly Connect. This mapping is crucial as it ensures that the correct data is inserted into the correct columns.

Map the name field from the Facebook lead response to the corresponding column in Google Sheets. Repeat the mapping process for email and phone number. Click ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to confirm the integration works.

After successfully mapping and testing, check your Google Sheets to confirm that the new lead details have been added correctly. This integration will now automatically log new leads into your spreadsheet every time a new lead is generated through Facebook Lead Ads.
