To send automated WhatsApp messages to your arms industries leads, you need to access Pabbly Connect. Start by opening your web browser and navigating to the Pabbly website. If you don’t have an account, you can sign up for free, which only takes a couple of minutes.
Once logged in, you will see the dashboard where all Pabbly applications are listed. Click on the Pabbly Connect option to access the integration dashboard. From here, you can create workflows that automate your messaging process.
2. Creating a New Workflow in Pabbly Connect
In this section, we will create a new workflow in Pabbly Connect. Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button to initiate the process. You will be prompted to name your workflow; choose a name that reflects your objective, such as ‘Automated WhatsApp Message for Arms Industries Leads’.
- Click on ‘Create’ to save your workflow.
- You will be directed to the workflow window containing trigger and action boxes.
In this workflow, the Pabbly Connect trigger will be set to Facebook Lead Ads. This means that whenever a new lead is generated from your Facebook ads, it will trigger the WhatsApp message sending process.
3. Setting Up the Trigger with Facebook Lead Ads
To set up the trigger in Pabbly Connect, select Facebook Lead Ads as your trigger application. You will need to choose the trigger event, which should be set to ‘New Lead Instant’. After selecting this, click on ‘Connect’ to link your Facebook account.
Once connected, you will need to select your Facebook page and the lead generation form. For example, if your page is named ‘Shield Tech Solutions’, select this from the dropdown. Ensure that your lead form is live and contains the necessary fields such as full name, email, and phone number.
4. Setting Up the Action to Send WhatsApp Messages
After configuring the trigger, it’s time to set up the action in Pabbly Connect. For this, you will select WTI as the action application. The action event should be set to ‘Send Template Message’. This allows you to send a predefined message template to your leads via WhatsApp.
- Click on ‘Connect’ to link your WTI account.
- Provide the required API endpoint and access token from WTI.
After successfully connecting WTI, you will need to map the WhatsApp number obtained from the lead details. This ensures that the correct phone number is used when sending the message. You will also select your message template, which must be pre-approved in WTI.
5. Testing the Integration in Pabbly Connect
Once you have set up both the trigger and action in Pabbly Connect, it’s crucial to test the integration. To do this, create a sample submission in your Facebook lead form. Fill in dummy details such as name, email, and WhatsApp number, then submit the form.
After submitting, return to Pabbly Connect and check if the new lead data is received correctly. You should see the lead details populated in the response section. Finally, check your WhatsApp to confirm that the automated message has been sent successfully to the lead.
