2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect
To create a new workflow in Pabbly Connect, navigate to the dashboard and select the ‘Create Workflow’ option. You will be prompted to name your workflow. For this integration, you can name it ‘Insert OptinMonster Lead in MySQL Database’ and choose a folder to organize your workflow.
- Click on the ‘Create’ button after naming your workflow.
- Select ‘OptinMonster’ as the trigger application.
- Choose the ‘New Lead’ trigger event to start the workflow.
Once you’ve set up the trigger, Pabbly Connect will provide a webhook URL. This URL is crucial as it acts as a bridge between OptinMonster and Pabbly Connect, allowing data to flow seamlessly.
3. Setting Up OptinMonster for Integration
Next, log into your OptinMonster account and navigate to the campaign dashboard. Here, you will need to edit the campaign you wish to integrate with MySQL. Click on the ‘Integrations’ tab and select ‘Add New Integration’.
Search for ‘Webhooks’ and select it. In the new webhook settings, paste the webhook URL provided by Pabbly Connect. Name your webhook, for example, ‘New Leads’, and click on the ‘Connect to Webhook’ button to finalize the setup.
4. Capturing Lead Details from OptinMonster
After setting up the webhook, it’s time to capture lead details. Perform a test submission by filling out the OptinMonster form. Enter dummy details such as name, email, and phone number, and submit the form.
Return to Pabbly Connect and click on the ‘Recapture Webhook Response’ button. This step ensures that the data from the test lead submission is captured and visible in your Pabbly Connect account. You should see all the details of the lead, confirming a successful connection.
5. Inserting Leads into MySQL Database
Now that you have captured the lead details, it’s time to insert them into your MySQL database. In Pabbly Connect, select ‘MySQL’ as the action application and choose ‘Insert Row’ as the action event.
Connect to your MySQL database by providing the necessary credentials such as database name, username, password, and host details. After successfully connecting, select the table where you want to insert the lead details. Map the fields from the captured response to the corresponding columns in your MySQL table.
- Map the first name, last name, email, and phone number fields.
- Click on the ‘Save and Send Test Request’ button.
Check your MySQL database to confirm that the new lead details have been successfully inserted. Each new lead submitted through OptinMonster will now automatically populate your MySQL database, demonstrating the power of Pabbly Connect in automating this process.
