Once logged in, navigate to the Pabbly Connect dashboard. Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button to begin setting up your integration. Name your workflow something descriptive, like ‘Send Emails from Google Sheets using Postmark’.

2. Configuring the Trigger with Google Sheets

In this section, you will set up the trigger for your workflow using Google Sheets. Select Google Sheets as your trigger application, and then choose the trigger event as ‘New or Updated Spreadsheet Row’.

Next, you will connect Google Sheets to Pabbly Connect. Copy the webhook URL provided by Pabbly Connect, then go to your Google Sheets. Under Extensions, click on ‘Add-ons’ and search for the Pabbly Connect Webhook add-on to install it.

• Open Google Sheets and navigate to Extensions.
• Install the Pabbly Connect Webhook add-on.
• Paste the copied webhook URL into the initial setup of the add-on.

After pasting the URL, specify the trigger column, which will be the last column where data is entered. This column will trigger the email sending process. Once configured, click on ‘Send Test’ and then ‘Submit’ to finalize your setup.

3. Setting Up the Action to Send Emails via Postmark

Now it’s time to set up the action in your workflow. Select Postmark as your action application and choose the action event as ‘Send Email’. This action will send emails based on the data retrieved from Google Sheets through Pabbly Connect.

To connect Postmark with Pabbly Connect, you will need your API token from your Postmark account. Navigate to your Postmark account, find the API tokens section, and copy your server API token.

• Log in to your Postmark account.
• Copy your server API token from the API section.
• Paste the token into the Pabbly Connect action setup.

Fill in the required fields such as the ‘From Email’, ‘To Email’, ‘Subject’, and ‘Email Body’. Use the mapping feature to pull the respective data from the Google Sheets response. After filling in these details, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to see if the email is sent successfully.

4. Testing the Integration Between Google Sheets and Postmark

After setting up the action, it’s crucial to test your workflow to ensure everything functions correctly. When you send a test email from Pabbly Connect, check the recipient’s email to confirm receipt. This step verifies that the integration between Google Sheets and Postmark is working as intended.

Once you confirm that the email has been received, you can proceed to use the workflow for sending emails automatically. This means that every time a new row is added to your Google Sheets, the specified email will be sent to the user automatically.

Check the recipient’s email for the test email. Ensure the email content matches what was set up in Google Sheets. Adjust any settings if necessary and retest.

Once everything is confirmed working, you can enable the automation for future emails. This integration allows for seamless communication through Pabbly Connect and enhances your workflow efficiency.

5. Finalizing Your Google Sheets and Postmark Integration

To finalize your integration, return to Google Sheets and ensure that your database of users is complete. If you want to send emails to all users at once, enable the ‘Send All Data’ option in the Pabbly Connect Webhook add-on.

By enabling this feature, every time you add data to your Google Sheets, Pabbly Connect will automatically send emails to all users listed in your sheet. This bulk email feature is particularly useful for newsletters or announcements.

In summary, you have successfully set up a workflow using Pabbly Connect to send emails from Google Sheets using Postmark. This integration allows for efficient email management and communication with your users.
