1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Integration

To begin integrating ConvertKit with Google Sheets, first, access Pabbly Connect. Open your browser and type in ‘Pabbly.com’. This will take you to the Pabbly landing page where you can either sign in or sign up for a free account.

Once signed in, click on the ‘Access Now’ option under Pabbly Connect. This will direct you to the dashboard where you can create a new workflow. Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button and name it ‘ConvertKit Subscribers to Google Sheets’ before proceeding.

2. Setting Up the Trigger in Pabbly Connect

In this step, you will set up the trigger for your workflow using Pabbly Connect. Select ConvertKit as your trigger application. The trigger event you need to choose is ‘New Form Subscriber’. This ensures that every new subscriber in ConvertKit will trigger the action in Google Sheets.

After selecting the trigger event, click on ‘Connect’. You will have the option to add a new connection. You need to provide the API key and API secret from your ConvertKit account. To find these keys, log into your ConvertKit account, navigate to the settings, and look for the API section. Copy and paste these keys into Pabbly Connect.

3. Selecting the Form for Subscribers

Once the connection is established, you will need to select the specific form that subscribers will fill out. Refresh the list of forms in Pabbly Connect and choose the form you created for this integration. This step is crucial as it determines which subscriber data will be sent to Google Sheets.

• Ensure that the form is published and accessible to users.
• Test the form by submitting a dummy entry to capture data in Pabbly Connect.
• Check for successful response capture in the Pabbly dashboard.

After a successful test submission, you will see the data captured from the form in Pabbly Connect. This confirms that your trigger is functioning correctly.

4. Setting Up Action in Google Sheets

Next, it’s time to set the action application, which is Google Sheets in this case. In Pabbly Connect, select Google Sheets as your action application. The action event should be set to ‘Add New Row’. This means every time a new subscriber is added in ConvertKit, their details will be automatically added to Google Sheets.

Click on ‘Connect’ and sign in with your Google account. Allow Pabbly Connect the necessary permissions to access your Google Sheets. After connecting, you will need to create a new spreadsheet where the subscriber details will be stored.

5. Mapping Fields and Completing the Integration

After creating your spreadsheet, you will need to map the fields from ConvertKit to Google Sheets. In Pabbly Connect, select the spreadsheet you created and specify the sheet within it. Then, map each field from the form submission to the corresponding columns in your Google Sheets.

• Map the first name, last name, and email address fields accordingly.
• Ensure all required fields are correctly filled to avoid errors.
• After mapping, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to verify the integration.

Once the test is successful, you can check your Google Sheets to see if the subscriber details have been added. This confirms that your integration between ConvertKit and Google Sheets via Pabbly Connect is complete and functioning smoothly.

Conclusion

This tutorial demonstrates how to integrate ConvertKit with Google Sheets using Pabbly Connect. By following these steps, you can automate the process of adding new subscribers to your Google Sheets, enhancing your workflow efficiency.
