1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Facebook Messenger Integration

To send Facebook Messenger responses using Google Generative AI, you first need to access Pabbly Connect. Start by navigating to the Pabbly Connect website and signing in to your account. If you are a new user, you can sign up for free and receive 100 free tasks each month.

Once you are logged in, you will see the Pabbly Apps window. Click on the ‘Access Now’ button under Pabbly Connect to enter the dashboard, where you can begin creating your automation workflows.

2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect

In Pabbly Connect, you need to create a new workflow to automate the process. Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button located at the top right corner of the dashboard. You will be prompted to name your workflow. For this tutorial, name it ‘Create Auto Reply in Facebook Messenger with Google Generative AI’.

• Select a folder to save your workflow, such as ‘Facebook Messenger Automations’.
• Click on ‘Create’ to finalize the workflow setup.

Your new workflow will appear in the dashboard, consisting of two main sections: Trigger and Action. The Trigger section captures the incoming messages, while the Action section processes the response.

3. Setting Up the Trigger with Facebook Messenger

To set up the trigger in Pabbly Connect, click on the arrow in the Trigger section. Select Facebook Messenger as your trigger application and choose the event ‘New Message Sent to Page’. This means that every time a new message is sent to your Facebook page, it will trigger the workflow.

Next, click on ‘Connect’ to link Facebook Messenger with Pabbly Connect. You will need to authorize the connection by selecting your Facebook account and the specific page you want to use for this integration, such as ‘Echo Delicious’. After selecting your page, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to capture a test message.

4. Generating Responses with Google Generative AI

After successfully capturing the test message, the next step is to generate a response using Google Generative AI. In the Action section of Pabbly Connect, select Google Generative AI as your action application and choose the event ‘Generate Content’. This will allow you to create a tailored response to the customer’s inquiry.

• Click on ‘Add New Connection’ and enter your API key from Google AI Studio.
• Fill in the prompt to generate a response based on the customer’s question.

Map the data from the previous step to dynamically insert the customer’s question into the prompt. Once you have set everything, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to generate the response.

5. Sending the Generated Message Back to Facebook Messenger

After generating the content, the final step is to send the message back to the customer via Facebook Messenger. In Pabbly Connect, add another Action step and select Facebook Messenger again. Choose the action event as ‘Send Message’.

Map the required fields, including the recipient ID and the generated message content. Once all fields are filled in, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’. This will send the generated response back to the customer’s Facebook Messenger, confirming the automation is complete.

Conclusion

This tutorial demonstrated how to use Pabbly Connect to automate Facebook Messenger responses through Google Generative AI. By following these steps, you can enhance customer interactions and streamline your business communications effectively.
