1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Integration

To start integrating Contact Form 7 with GoToTraining, you need to access Pabbly Connect. This platform allows you to automate the registration process seamlessly. Begin by visiting the Pabbly Connect homepage and logging into your account.

If you’re a new user, you can sign up for free and explore the features. Once logged in, you will see the dashboard where you can create workflows to connect your applications.


2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect

In this section, we will create a workflow that connects Contact Form 7 to GoToTraining using Pabbly Connect. Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button located at the top right corner of the dashboard. You will be prompted to name your workflow; enter ‘Create GoToTraining Registrant on Contact Form 7 Submission’.

  • Select a folder to save your workflow.
  • Click on the Create button to proceed.

After creating the workflow, you will see the trigger and action setup. The trigger will be set to Contact Form 7, which captures new form submissions. This is where Pabbly Connect begins to automate the process.


3. Setting Up the Trigger for Contact Form 7

Now that we have created our workflow, it’s time to set up the trigger using Pabbly Connect. Select Contact Form 7 as the trigger application and choose the trigger event as ‘New Form Submission’. This ensures that every time a form is submitted, the workflow will be activated.

Once you select the trigger event, you will receive a webhook URL. This URL is crucial as it connects your Contact Form 7 to Pabbly Connect. Copy this URL and head over to your WordPress dashboard.

  • Navigate to the Contact Form 7 settings.
  • Enable the webhook option and paste the webhook URL.
  • Save the settings to establish the connection.

With this setup, Pabbly Connect will now listen for submissions from your Contact Form 7.


4. Creating a Registrant in GoToTraining

After setting up the trigger, the next step is to create a registrant in GoToTraining using Pabbly Connect. Select GoToTraining as the action application and choose ‘Create Registrant’ as the action event. This step ensures that whenever there is a new form submission, a registrant is automatically created in your GoToTraining account.

To connect GoToTraining with Pabbly Connect, click on ‘Connect with GoToTraining’ and authorize the connection. Make sure you are logged into your GoToTraining account to facilitate this process.

Select the training session for the registrant. Map the required fields such as email, first name, and last name from the previous step.

Once you have mapped the fields, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’. This will create a registrant in your GoToTraining account based on the submitted form details.


5. Testing the Automation

Now that you have set up the workflow, it’s crucial to test the automation using Pabbly Connect. Go back to your Contact Form 7 and fill out the form with dummy data. After submitting, check your GoToTraining account to verify that the registrant has been created successfully.

Refresh your GoToTraining account and you should see the new registrant listed under your training session. This confirms that the automation is working correctly and that Pabbly Connect has successfully integrated the two applications.

In summary, this integration allows for seamless registration of participants for your training sessions, saving time and reducing manual errors. By utilizing Pabbly Connect, you can focus on delivering high-quality training experiences.
