To begin using Pabbly Connect, visit the dashboard by signing in or creating an account. This platform allows you to automate tasks between different applications effortlessly. Once logged in, navigate to the ‘Create Workflow’ tab to start your integration process.

Here, you will need to name your workflow based on your objective. In this case, it is to automate posting from Facebook Pages to multiple Facebook Groups. After naming your workflow, click on ‘Create’ to proceed to the next step.

2. Configuring the Facebook Pages Trigger in Pabbly Connect

In this section, we will configure the Facebook Pages trigger using Pabbly Connect. Select Facebook Pages as your trigger application and choose the ‘New Post’ event. This event will activate the workflow every time a new post is made on your Facebook page.

• Select ‘Add New Connection’ to link your Facebook account.
• Authorize Pabbly Connect to access your Facebook Pages.
• Specify how many posts to retrieve in each request, up to 100.

Once you have successfully connected your Facebook account, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to confirm that the integration is working correctly. You should see the last post details from your selected Facebook page.

3. Using Google Sheets to Store Facebook Group Details

Next, we will utilize Google Sheets to manage the Facebook group details using Pabbly Connect. Create a spreadsheet containing the names and IDs of all the Facebook groups you want to post to. This will allow Pabbly Connect to access and utilize this information seamlessly.

In Pabbly Connect, select Google Sheets as your action application and choose the ‘Get Rows’ event. Connect to your Google Sheets account by selecting ‘Add New Connection’ and authorizing access. Once connected, select the spreadsheet you created earlier and specify the range of data to retrieve.

4. Posting to Facebook Groups via Pabbly Connect

After retrieving the group details, the next step is to post the message to the identified Facebook groups using Pabbly Connect. Choose Facebook Groups as your action application and select the ‘Post Message’ event. Ensure you connect to your Facebook Groups account.

• Map the group ID from the previous step to ensure the message reaches the correct group.
• Input the message you want to post, which can include links or additional content.
• Click ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to verify the message is posted correctly.

After completing these steps, your message should appear in all selected Facebook groups, confirming that the integration via Pabbly Connect was successful.

5. Testing and Verifying the Integration

To ensure everything is functioning as intended, test the integration by posting a new message on your Facebook Page. Within 10 minutes, check the Facebook groups to see if the post appears. This delay is due to the polling time set in Pabbly Connect.

Once you confirm that the message has been posted in all the groups, you can be assured that your integration is working flawlessly. If you encounter any issues, revisit the steps to ensure all connections and mappings are set up correctly.
