Watch Step By Step Video Tutorial Below

1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Stripe and Slack Integration

To start the integration between Pabbly Connect, Stripe, and Slack, first navigate to the Pabbly Connect website. You can sign up for free or log in if you already have an account. Once signed in, access the Pabbly Connect dashboard.

From the dashboard, click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button. Name your workflow, for example, ‘Stripe to Slack’. This workflow will facilitate sending automatic messages to Slack whenever a new customer is created in Stripe.

2. Setting Up the Trigger in Pabbly Connect

In this step, you will set up the trigger to connect Stripe with Pabbly Connect. Click on the plus button to add an action step and select Stripe as the application. Choose the method ‘New Customer’ to trigger the workflow whenever a new customer is created.

After selecting the method, Pabbly Connect will generate a webhook URL. This URL is essential as it allows Stripe to send data to Pabbly Connect. Copy this webhook URL to use it in your Stripe account.

3. Configuring the Webhook in Stripe

Next, you need to configure the webhook in your Stripe account. Log in to Stripe, navigate to the ‘Developers’ section, and click on ‘Webhooks’. Here, you will add a new endpoint by pasting the webhook URL you copied from Pabbly Connect.

In the events to send, select ‘Customer Created’ to ensure that every time a new customer is added, Stripe sends this information to Pabbly Connect. After configuring, click on ‘Add Endpoint’ to finalize the setup.

4. Capturing the Webhook Response in Pabbly Connect

After setting up the webhook in Stripe, return to Pabbly Connect to capture the webhook response. To test this, create a new customer in Stripe. Fill in the required details such as name, email, and address, and click on ‘Add Customer’.

Once the customer is added, Pabbly Connect will capture the webhook response, displaying all the information from the new customer, including their name, email, and address.

5. Setting Up the Action to Send Messages to Slack

With the webhook response successfully captured, it’s time to set up the action that sends messages to Slack. In Pabbly Connect, add a new action step and select Slack as the application. Choose the method ‘Send Channel Message’.

Connect your Slack account by authorizing Pabbly Connect. Select the channel where you want the message to be sent, such as ‘P demo’. In the message field, you can customize your message, for example, ‘New customer created in Stripe: [Customer Name].’ Use the mapping feature to include the customer’s name dynamically.

Finally, run a test request to ensure everything works. Check your Slack channel to confirm that the message has been sent successfully, indicating that the integration is complete.

Conclusion

This tutorial demonstrates how to use Pabbly Connect to automate sending Slack messages when a new customer is created in Stripe. By following these steps, you can streamline your communication processes effectively.
