To set up the trigger in Pabbly Connect, select ‘Facebook Lead Ads’ as your trigger application. The trigger event should be set to ‘New Lead Instant’. This means every time you receive a new lead, it will automatically be captured by Pabbly Connect.

Next, establish a connection between your Facebook Lead Ads account and Pabbly Connect. Click on the ‘Connect’ button, and if you already have a connection, you can use it. Otherwise, create a new connection by logging into your Facebook account.

• Define your message template, including variables like the lead’s name.
• Map the lead’s phone number and name to personalize the message.

After mapping the necessary fields, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to ensure everything is working correctly.

5. Testing the Integration

After setting up the action, it’s crucial to test your integration using Pabbly Connect. You need to make a sample submission of your lead generation form to see if the WhatsApp message is sent successfully. Fill out the form with test data and submit it.

Once the test lead is submitted, return to Pabbly Connect to check if you received the response. If everything is correctly set up, you should see the lead’s details captured in your workflow.

Finally, verify that the WhatsApp message has been sent successfully to the test lead. This confirms that your automation is fully functional and ready to send messages to real leads.
