Enter a suitable name, like ‘Create Facebook Page Post for WooCommerce Product Update’, and select the folder where you want to save it. Click on ‘Create’ to proceed. This will open two windows: one for the trigger and one for the action.

Setting Up WooCommerce as the Trigger in Pabbly Connect

In the trigger window, select WooCommerce as your trigger application. You will then need to choose the trigger event that initiates the workflow. Select ‘Product Updated’ to ensure that any updates to your WooCommerce products will trigger the automation.

Next, Pabbly Connect will provide a webhook URL along with instructions. Copy this URL, as it will be used to connect your WooCommerce store with Pabbly Connect. Head to your WooCommerce settings, navigate to the Advanced section, and click on Webhooks.

• Click on ‘Add Webhook’.
• Name your webhook, e.g., ‘Test Integration’.
• Set the status to ‘Active’.
• Select the topic as ‘Product Updated’.
• Paste the copied webhook URL in the Delivery URL field.

After filling in the details, click on ‘Save Webhook’. Now return to Pabbly Connect and click on ‘Recapture Webhook Response’ to capture the data from WooCommerce when a product is updated.

Setting Up Facebook Page as the Action in Pabbly Connect

With the WooCommerce trigger configured, it’s time to set up the action. In the action window, select Facebook Pages as your action application. Choose the action event as ‘Create Page Post’. Click on ‘Connect’ and select ‘Add New Connection’ to link your Facebook account with Pabbly Connect.

Authorize the connection by logging into your Facebook account. Once authorized, you will need to select the Facebook page where you want to create the post. This is crucial for ensuring the updates are shared on the correct platform.

• Select your Facebook page from the dropdown list.
• Enter the message for the post, including details about the updated product.
• Map the product name and permalink from the WooCommerce response.

After entering all the required information, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’. If successful, you will receive a response confirming that the post has been created on your Facebook page.

Testing and Verifying the Integration

To ensure everything is functioning correctly, update a product in your WooCommerce store. For instance, change the description of a product and click on ‘Update’. This action will trigger the webhook you set up in Pabbly Connect.

Once the product is updated, return to Pabbly Connect and check for the webhook response. If the integration is successful, you will see the updated product details captured in the response.

Finally, visit your Facebook page to verify that the new post has been created automatically, showcasing the updated product information. This confirms that the integration between WooCommerce and Facebook via Pabbly Connect is working seamlessly.
