Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect

Once you are signed into Pabbly Connect, navigate to the dashboard. Here, you can create a new workflow by clicking on the ‘Create Workflow’ button. A dialog box will appear, prompting you to name your workflow. Enter a relevant name and select a folder to save it in.

After creating the workflow, you will see two windows labeled ‘Trigger’ and ‘Action’. The trigger will be set to YouTube, and the action will be set to Facebook groups. This setup ensures that every time a new video is uploaded to your YouTube channel, it will automatically be shared to your Facebook group.

  • Click on ‘Trigger’ and select YouTube.
  • Choose the trigger event as ‘New Video in Channel with Video URL’.
  • Connect your YouTube account by selecting ‘Add New Connection’.

Now that the workflow is set up, you can proceed to configure the trigger settings. This involves selecting your YouTube account and entering the channel ID to ensure that the correct videos are monitored.


Setting Up the YouTube Trigger in Pabbly Connect

In this step, you will configure the YouTube trigger within Pabbly Connect. After connecting your YouTube account, you will need to enter your channel ID. This is crucial for Pabbly Connect to identify which channel to monitor for new uploads.

To find your channel ID, go to your YouTube channel, and copy the ID from the URL. Paste this ID into the appropriate field in Pabbly Connect. After entering the channel ID, click on the ‘Save and Send Test Request’ button. This action will trigger Pabbly Connect to fetch the latest video details from your channel.

  • Click ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to receive the last uploaded video details.
  • Verify that the response contains the video URL, title, and description.
  • Ensure the connection is successful before proceeding.

Once the test request is successful, you will receive the details of the last uploaded video. This confirmation indicates that your YouTube trigger is functioning correctly within Pabbly Connect.


Setting Up the Facebook Group Action in Pabbly Connect

Now that you have configured the YouTube trigger, the next step is to set up the Facebook Group action within Pabbly Connect. Select Facebook Groups as your action application and choose the action event as ‘Post Message’. This action will allow you to share the video link in your selected Facebook group.

Connect your Facebook account by selecting ‘Add New Connection’. Once connected, you will be prompted to select the Facebook group where you want to share your video. After selecting the group, you will also need to craft a message to accompany your video link.

Select the Facebook group from the dropdown menu. Write a message like ‘Hey, check out my new YouTube video!’ Map the video URL received from the YouTube trigger.

After completing these steps, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to ensure the message is posted in your Facebook group. This test will confirm that your workflow is set up correctly, allowing for seamless sharing of your YouTube videos to Facebook.
