1. Setting Up Pabbly Connect for Webflow and Slack Integration

To begin using Pabbly Connect, first, access the platform by visiting their homepage. Here, you can either sign in or create a new account if you are a first-time user. Once signed in, you will be taken to the dashboard where all your integrations are managed.

In the dashboard, click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button. You will be prompted to name your workflow. For this integration, name it ‘Notify Team on Slack Channel for Webflow Form Submission’. Select an appropriate folder to organize your workflow. Now, you are ready to set up the trigger and action required for your automation.

2. Setting Up the Trigger from Webflow

In this step, you will configure the trigger for the integration using Pabbly Connect. Select Webflow as your trigger application. Specifically, choose the trigger event as ‘Form Submitted’. This ensures that every time a form submission occurs on your Webflow site, it will initiate the workflow.

• Select Webflow from the list of applications.
• Choose the trigger event as Form Submitted.
• Connect your Webflow account to Pabbly Connect using the API token.

After connecting, you will need to enter the Site ID for the specific Webflow site you are using. This ID is essential for Pabbly Connect to identify which site’s form submissions to monitor. Once you have filled in all required fields, save your settings and proceed to test the connection.

3. Testing the Webflow Form Submission

Now that you have set up the trigger, it’s time to test the integration. Go back to your Webflow form and make a test submission. Fill out the form with dummy data, including a test name, email, and phone number, and click submit. This action will send a test notification through Pabbly Connect to ensure everything is working correctly.

Once you submit the form, return to Pabbly Connect to see if the test submission was successful. You should see the details of the form submission captured in the workflow. This confirmation indicates that Pabbly Connect is correctly receiving data from Webflow.

4. Connecting Slack to Receive Notifications

With the trigger successfully set up, the next step is to configure the action to send notifications to Slack using Pabbly Connect. Select Slack as your action application and choose the action event as ‘Send Channel Message’. This will allow notifications to be sent to your chosen Slack channel whenever a new form submission is made.

• Connect your Slack workspace to Pabbly Connect.
• Select the channel where you want to send notifications.
• Draft your notification message using mapped data from the form submission.

Make sure to customize the message to include relevant details such as the name, email, and phone number of the lead. This way, your team will receive all necessary information to follow up promptly. After finalizing the message, save the action settings.

5. Final Testing and Confirmation of Integration

After setting up both the trigger and action, it’s time to conduct a final test of the entire workflow using Pabbly Connect. Go back to your Webflow form and submit another test entry. Once submitted, check your designated Slack channel to confirm that the notification appears as expected.

If everything is configured correctly, your team should receive a message detailing the new lead immediately after the form submission. This automation significantly enhances communication and ensures that no lead is missed, thereby improving overall responsiveness.

Conclusion

In this guide, we explored how to effectively use Pabbly Connect to integrate Webflow with Slack for form submissions. By automating notifications, teams can respond quickly to leads, enhancing customer experience and engagement.
