1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Integration

To send WhatsApp messages to Facebook leads for your leather business, you first need to access Pabbly Connect. Start by visiting the Pabbly Connect website and either sign in if you are an existing user or click on ‘Sign Up Free’ to create a new account. New users get 300 tasks every month to explore the software.

After signing in, you will be directed to the Pabbly Connect dashboard. Here, you can create workflows that automate your processes. Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button located at the top right corner to start setting up your integration.


2. Setting Up Facebook Lead Ads as Trigger

In this section, you will set up Facebook Lead Ads as the trigger for your automation using Pabbly Connect. Name your workflow something descriptive, like ‘Leather Facebook Lead Ads to WhatsApp Message’. Select the appropriate folder for your workflow.

Next, choose Facebook Lead Ads as your trigger application and select the ‘New Lead’ event. Click on ‘Connect Now’ to establish a connection. If you haven’t connected your Facebook account yet, select ‘Add New Connection’ and authorize access to your Facebook account. Once connected, choose your Facebook page and the lead form you want to use.

  • Select the Facebook page that corresponds to your leather business.
  • Choose the lead form you created for collecting leads.

After setting up the trigger, click ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to ensure the connection is working properly. You will need to perform a test submission from the Facebook Lead Ads form to verify that the leads are being captured correctly.


3. Configuring WhatsApp Cloud API for Action

Now, it’s time to set up the action application, which is the WhatsApp Cloud API, through Pabbly Connect. Select the WhatsApp Cloud API as your action application and choose the ‘Send Template Message’ event. Click on ‘Connect Now’ to establish the connection.

To connect your WhatsApp Cloud API account, you will need to enter your temporary access token, phone number ID, and WhatsApp business account ID, which you can find in your Meta for Developers account. Make sure to copy these details accurately into Pabbly Connect.

  • Enter your temporary access token (note that it expires in 23 hours).
  • Provide your phone number ID and WhatsApp business account ID.

After entering the required details, click ‘Save’. You will then need to select the template message you previously created in your WhatsApp Cloud API account for sending messages to leads. Make sure to map the recipient’s phone number and any other variables needed for the message.


4. Testing the Automation Workflow

Once you have set up both your trigger and action in Pabbly Connect, it’s crucial to test your automation workflow. To do this, go back to the lead testing tool on your Meta for Developers account and submit a new lead. Ensure that you delete any previous test leads to avoid conflicts.

After submitting the new lead, check your WhatsApp for the message. If everything is set up correctly, you should receive the WhatsApp message that confirms the lead was captured successfully. This step is vital to ensure your integration between Facebook Lead Ads and WhatsApp Cloud API is functioning as intended.

Finally, if you receive the message, your automation is working perfectly. You can now automate WhatsApp messages to nurture your leads from Facebook effectively.
