1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Facebook Leads Integration
To start integrating Facebook leads with Google Sheets, you need to access Pabbly Connect. Begin by visiting the Pabbly Connect website and signing into your account. If you are a new user, you can sign up for free and receive 100 tasks every month.
Once logged in, you will see the Pabbly Connect dashboard. Click on the ‘Access Now’ button for Pabbly Connect. This will take you to the automation area where you can create workflows for your integrations.
2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect
In this step, you will create a workflow that connects Facebook lead ads to Google Sheets through Pabbly Connect. Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button located in the top right corner of the dashboard. A dialog box will appear, prompting you to name your workflow.
- Name the workflow, for example, ‘Vision WIP Facebook Leads to Google Sheets’.
- Select a folder to save your workflow, such as ‘Facebook Leads to Google Sheets Automation’.
- Click on the ‘Create’ button to finalize your workflow setup.
After creating the workflow, you will see two main sections: Trigger and Action. The Trigger section is where you will set up the event that starts the workflow, while the Action section is where you define what happens after the trigger occurs.
3. Setting Up the Trigger for Facebook Lead Ads
To set up the trigger in Pabbly Connect, click on the arrow in the Trigger section and select ‘Facebook Lead Ads’ as your trigger application. The trigger event you will choose is ‘New Lead Instant’. This event captures new leads generated through Facebook ads.
Click on the ‘Connect’ button to establish a connection between Facebook Lead Ads and Pabbly Connect. If you are creating a new connection, click on ‘Add New Connection’ and authorize Pabbly Connect to access your Facebook account.
- Select the Facebook page associated with your leads, such as ‘Vision WIP’.
- Choose the lead ad form you created, like ‘Facebook Lead Ads Form’.
- Click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to capture a test lead.
Once the test lead is generated, you will see the response captured in Pabbly Connect. This confirms that the integration is set up correctly.
4. Configuring the Action to Add Data to Google Sheets
Now that the trigger is set up, it’s time to configure the action in Pabbly Connect. Click on the arrow in the Action section and select ‘Google Sheets’ as your action application. The action event will be ‘Add New Row’. This will ensure that new leads from Facebook are added to your Google Sheets automatically.
Click on the ‘Connect’ button to authorize Google Sheets with Pabbly Connect. If you are establishing a new connection, click on ‘Add New Connection’ and sign in with your Google account.
Select the Google Sheets spreadsheet you want to use, such as ‘Vision WIP Customer Data’. Choose the specific sheet within that spreadsheet, like ‘Sheet1’. Map the fields from the Facebook lead response to the corresponding columns in Google Sheets.
After mapping all necessary fields like first name, last name, email, and phone number, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to check if the data is correctly added to your Google Sheets.
5. Testing the Integration Between Facebook Leads and Google Sheets
To ensure that everything is functioning correctly, you need to test the integration set up with Pabbly Connect. Generate a test lead using the Facebook Lead Ads testing tool. Select the appropriate page and form, fill in the required fields, and submit the form.
Once the test lead has been submitted, go back to your Google Sheets to verify if the data appears in the designated columns. If the integration is successful, you will see the new lead’s details populated in the Google Sheets.
Check the first name, last name, email, and phone number fields for accuracy. If the data is correct, the integration is fully functional. You can now automate this process for future leads.
With successful integration, you have automated the process of adding Facebook leads to Google Sheets using Pabbly Connect. This saves time and ensures that all leads are captured accurately.
