To start integrating Cindy with Microsoft Excel, you need to access Pabbly Connect. First, create a free account on the Pabbly Connect dashboard. This platform allows you to automate tasks between different applications seamlessly.

Once logged in, navigate to the dashboard and click on ‘Create Workflow’. Name your workflow appropriately, for instance, ‘MS Excel Integration’. This will be the base for your automation process.

2. Setting Up the Trigger in Pabbly Connect

In this step, we will set up the trigger to connect Microsoft Excel with Pabbly Connect. Click on the trigger window and select Microsoft Excel as your application. Choose the trigger event as ‘New Row in Worksheet’.

Next, click on ‘Connect’ and select ‘Add New Connection’. You’ll need to connect your Microsoft Excel account, allowing Pabbly Connect to access your Excel data. Once connected, select the workbook that contains your subscriber details.

• Choose the correct workbook from the dropdown.
• Select the worksheet where the new subscriber details are stored.
• Click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to confirm the connection.

After the test request, you will receive a response containing the details of the most recent row added to your Excel sheet. This confirms that your trigger is set up correctly in Pabbly Connect.

3. Setting Up the Action to Add Subscribers in Cindy

Now, we will configure the action that sends the subscriber details to Cindy using Pabbly Connect. In the action window, search for Cindy and select it. Choose the action event as ‘Add Subscriber’.

Click on ‘Connect’ and select ‘Add New Connection’. You will be prompted to enter your Cindy API key and the URL of your Cindy account. This connection allows Pabbly Connect to add subscribers directly into your Cindy account.

• Copy the API key from your Cindy account settings.
• Paste the API key and the Cindy URL in the Pabbly Connect connection settings.
• Ensure there are no trailing slashes in the URL.

After connecting, you will need to specify the list ID where you want to add the subscribers. Follow the prompts to map the subscriber’s first name, last name, and email address from the Excel data to the corresponding fields in Cindy.

4. Testing the Integration Workflow

With your action set up, it’s time to test the integration using Pabbly Connect. Click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ in the action window. This will send a test subscriber to your Cindy account to ensure everything is working correctly.

Check your Cindy subscriber list to confirm that the new subscriber has been added successfully. You should see the same details that you entered in your Excel sheet reflected in Cindy.

Verify that the subscriber appears in the correct list in Cindy. Ensure all details match those from your Excel sheet. If successful, your integration is complete!

This testing process confirms that the automation is functioning as intended, allowing you to add subscribers from Excel to Cindy seamlessly using Pabbly Connect.

5. Finalizing the Setup and Automation

After testing, you can finalize your automation setup in Pabbly Connect. Remember, the connection between Microsoft Excel and Pabbly Connect is polling-based, meaning it checks for new data every 8 hours by default.

If you require more frequent updates, you can contact Pabbly support to reduce the polling time to as low as 10 minutes. This flexibility allows you to tailor the automation to your needs.

Use the automation to manage subscribers efficiently. Consider using other applications with Pabbly Connect for more integrations. Access the clone link for this workflow to replicate it easily.
