Once logged in, navigate to the dashboard and click on the blue button labeled ‘Create Workflow’. You will be prompted to name your workflow. For this integration, you might name it ‘Send WhatsApp Message on Form Submission’. After naming, click on ‘Create’ to proceed.

2. Selecting Trigger and Action in Pabbly Connect

In the next step, you will need to select the trigger and action for your workflow. The trigger will be the event that starts the automation, which in this case is a new form submission in Elementor. Select ‘Elementor Forms’ as the trigger application and choose the event ‘New Form Submission’.

• Select ‘Elementor Forms’ as the trigger application.
• Choose ‘New Form Submission’ as the trigger event.
• Click on ‘Save and Continue’ to move to the next step.

After selecting the trigger, Pabbly Connect will provide a webhook URL. This URL will be used to connect your Elementor form with Pabbly Connect. Copy this URL as you will need it in the next steps to complete the integration.

Now, you will integrate your Elementor form with Pabbly Connect. Edit the form you want to connect and navigate to the ‘Actions After Submit’ section. Here, you will add a webhook action.

• Select the ‘Webhook’ option from the actions list.
• Paste the webhook URL you copied from Pabbly Connect.
• Click on ‘Update’ to save your changes.

By doing this, every time the form is submitted, the data will be sent to Pabbly Connect via the webhook, allowing you to automate the WhatsApp message sending process.

After the Elementor form is connected to Pabbly Connect, the next step involves setting up the action to send WhatsApp messages. For this, select the ‘Interact’ application in Pabbly Connect as your action application. Choose the action event as ‘Send WhatsApp Message’.

To configure this action, you will need to provide the following details: the phone number, message template, and any additional variables you want to include in the message. Ensure you have the WhatsApp Cloud API access for this to work effectively.

Enter the phone number of the form submitter. Select the appropriate message template you created earlier. Map any variables like name and brochure link to personalize the message.

Once all details are filled, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to check if the message is sent successfully. This process ensures that every form submission triggers a WhatsApp message to the submitter automatically through Pabbly Connect.
