1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Integration

To send WhatsApp messages to your Summer Camp Facebook leads, we will access Pabbly Connect. Start by visiting the Pabbly Connect website and sign in to your account. If you’re a new user, you can sign up for free to get started with 100 tasks per month.

Once logged in, you will see various Pabbly apps. Click on Pabbly Connect, which is the automation tool we will use for this integration. After that, click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button to begin setting up your automation.

2. Creating Your Workflow in Pabbly Connect

In this step, we will create a new workflow in Pabbly Connect. Name your workflow as ‘Send WhatsApp Message to Summer Camp Facebook Leads’ and save it in the folder designated for Facebook lead ads to WhatsApp automation. This helps in organizing your workflows.

• Click on the ‘Create’ button to initiate the workflow.
• You will be directed to the workflow window where you set the trigger and action.

The trigger is the starting point of the automation. Here, select ‘Facebook Lead Ads’ as your trigger application. Choose the trigger event as ‘New Lead’ to ensure that every time a new lead is generated, it activates the workflow.

3. Connecting Facebook Lead Ads to Pabbly Connect

Next, we will connect Facebook Lead Ads to Pabbly Connect. Click on the connect button and either select an existing connection or add a new one. If you are adding a new connection, follow the prompts to authenticate your Facebook account.

Once connected, select your Facebook page (e.g., Summer Smiles) and the lead form you want to use. After setting this up, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’. This will allow you to test if the connection is working properly.

• Navigate to the Meta for Developers website.
• Use the Lead Ads Testing Tool to submit a test lead.

Fill in the required details for the test lead and submit it. Once done, check back in your Pabbly Connect workflow to see if the test lead data has been captured successfully.

4. Setting Up WhatsApp Integration in Pabbly Connect

Now we will set up the action step to send WhatsApp messages. For the action application, select ‘WhatsApp Cloud API’ in Pabbly Connect. Choose the action event as ‘Send Template Message’. Click on the connect button to establish a connection with your WhatsApp account.

If you haven’t connected your WhatsApp Cloud API account, you will need to enter your token, phone number ID, and WhatsApp business account ID. Make sure to create an API setup if you haven’t already. After entering these details, click on ‘Save’.

Select the template name you want to use for the WhatsApp message. Map the recipient’s mobile number from the previous step.

After mapping the necessary fields, including the header image URL and body fields, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to test your WhatsApp message functionality.

5. Testing and Verifying the Integration

Finally, we will test the entire workflow to ensure everything is functioning correctly. Submit another test lead through the Lead Ads Testing Tool on Meta for Developers. Ensure you refresh the page to avoid conflicts with previous submissions.

After submitting the new test lead, check your WhatsApp to see if you receive the message. The message should include the lead’s name and confirm their interest in your Summer Camp program.

In summary, we set up a trigger using Facebook Lead Ads and an action to send a WhatsApp message using Pabbly Connect. This automation ensures you can promptly engage with new leads as they come in, enhancing your communication strategy.
