Once on the dashboard, click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button. Here, you will set up a new workflow that will connect to your desired applications. Select ‘Webhook’ as your trigger app, as it will allow you to receive data from external sources.

2. Creating the Webhook URL in Pabbly Connect

In this step, you will create a webhook URL using Pabbly Connect. After selecting the Webhook trigger, choose the ‘Catch Webhook’ event. This action will generate a unique webhook URL for your workflow.

• Select ‘Webhook’ as the trigger app.
• Choose ‘Catch Webhook’ as the trigger event.
• Copy the generated webhook URL for later use.

Now that you have your webhook URL, you can use it in your iPhone shortcuts to send data directly to Pabbly Connect. This integration is crucial for ensuring that your data flows seamlessly from your iPhone to your applications.

3. Setting Up the iPhone Shortcut to Send Data

Next, you will set up a shortcut on your iPhone that utilizes the webhook URL created in Pabbly Connect. Open the Shortcuts app on your iPhone and tap the plus button to create a new shortcut. In the search action, look for ‘Get Contents of URL’ and select it.

Paste the copied webhook URL into the URL field. Now, configure the method for the API call. Choose ‘POST’ to send data to the webhook. You can also set up the request body to send JSON data. This is where you will define what information is sent to Pabbly Connect.

4. Configuring the Data Sending Method

In this stage, you will configure how to send your data to the webhook URL using Pabbly Connect. After selecting the POST method, you will be prompted to set up the request body. Choose JSON as the format to send your data.

• Select ‘JSON’ for the request body format.
• Add fields as necessary; for example, a text input field.
• Use ‘Ask for Input’ to gather user input for the JSON data.

This configuration allows you to dynamically send data from your iPhone to Pabbly Connect, making your automation process efficient and user-friendly.

5. Testing the Integration and Viewing Results

Finally, you will test the integration to ensure everything works correctly. Run the shortcut you created on your iPhone. It will prompt you for text input. After entering your text and allowing the necessary permissions, the data will be sent to the webhook URL.

Go back to your Pabbly Connect dashboard to check if the data was received successfully. You should see the text you entered displayed in the webhook response section. This confirms that your integration between your iPhone and Pabbly Connect is functioning as intended.
