1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for WhatsApp Integration

To start sending WhatsApp messages to political campaign Facebook leads, you first need to access Pabbly Connect. This platform allows you to automate the process of sending messages when a new lead is generated from Facebook ads.

Visit the Pabbly Connect website and sign in or sign up if you are a new user. Existing users can click on the ‘Sign In’ option, while new users should select ‘Sign Up Free’ to get started with 100 free tasks each month.

2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect

Once you are logged into Pabbly Connect, you need to create a new workflow. Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button located at the top right corner of the dashboard. Name your workflow appropriately, such as ‘jjp Facebook Leads to WhatsApp Message’.

• Select a folder for your workflow based on your preference.
• Click on ‘Create’ to initiate your workflow setup.

In the workflow window, you’ll see two main components: trigger and action. The trigger is the event that starts the workflow, while the action is what happens as a result. In this case, the trigger will be Facebook Lead Ads, and the action will be WhatsApp Cloud API.

3. Setting Up the Trigger with Facebook Lead Ads

To set up your trigger in Pabbly Connect, select Facebook Lead Ads as your trigger application. Choose the trigger event as ‘New Lead Instant’. This setup ensures that every time a new lead is generated, it will be captured by Pabbly Connect.

• Click on ‘Connect’ to link your Facebook account with Pabbly Connect.
• Select your Facebook page and the lead form you want to use.

After saving the connection, you will need to perform a test submission to ensure the trigger is working correctly. This involves submitting a lead through the Meta for Developers tool, which will allow Pabbly Connect to capture the lead data.

4. Configuring the Action with WhatsApp Cloud API

Next, you will configure the action in Pabbly Connect by selecting WhatsApp Cloud API as your action application. Choose the action event as ‘Send Template Message’. This step is crucial for sending automated WhatsApp messages to your leads.

Connect your WhatsApp Cloud API account by providing the required details such as token, phone number ID, and WhatsApp business account ID. Select the message template you want to use for the WhatsApp message.

Make sure to map the recipient’s mobile number and include any dynamic variables in your message template. Once everything is configured, save the action and perform a test request to verify that the WhatsApp message is sent successfully.

5. Testing and Verifying Your Integration

Finally, to ensure that your integration works seamlessly, you will need to test it. Go back to the lead testing tool in Meta and delete any previous leads to create a new one. This is necessary because each form can only have one lead at a time.

Submit a new lead with your original number to receive the WhatsApp message. After submitting, check your WhatsApp for the message confirming your interest in the political party. This confirms that Pabbly Connect has successfully automated the process of sending messages to new leads.

Conclusion

This tutorial has guided you through the process of using Pabbly Connect to send WhatsApp messages to Facebook leads for political campaigns. By following these steps, you can automate your communication effectively and enhance your lead nurturing process.
