1. Introduction to Pabbly Connect for WooCommerce and Airtable Integration

Pabbly Connect is a powerful integration platform that allows you to connect various applications seamlessly. In this tutorial, we will explore how to use Pabbly Connect to automatically add new WooCommerce orders to Airtable. This integration eliminates the need for manual data entry and ensures that your order information is always up-to-date.

To begin, you will need to access Pabbly Connect by visiting their website. Once there, create an account if you haven’t already, or log in to your existing account. This process is straightforward and requires no coding knowledge, making it accessible for everyone.

2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect

After logging into Pabbly Connect, you will need to create a new workflow to connect WooCommerce and Airtable. Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button and give your workflow a name, such as ‘WooCommerce to Airtable’. This name will help you identify the workflow later.

Next, you will see the trigger and action windows. The trigger is the event that starts the workflow, and the action is what happens as a result. For this integration, you will set WooCommerce as the trigger application and select the ‘Order Updated’ event. This means that every time an order is updated in WooCommerce, it will trigger the workflow to send data to Airtable.

• Click on ‘Create Workflow’ in Pabbly Connect.
• Name your workflow (e.g., ‘WooCommerce to Airtable’).
• Select WooCommerce as the trigger application.
• Choose ‘Order Updated’ as the trigger event.

After setting the trigger, you will receive a webhook URL from Pabbly Connect. This URL is crucial as it allows WooCommerce to send data to Pabbly Connect. Copy this URL to your clipboard for the next step.

3. Setting Up the WooCommerce Webhook

To connect WooCommerce with Pabbly Connect, you need to set up a webhook in your WooCommerce settings. Go to your WooCommerce dashboard, navigate to Settings, and then to the Advanced tab. Here, you will find the Webhooks section.

Create a new webhook by clicking on ‘Add Webhook’. Enter a name for your webhook, select ‘Order Updated’ as the topic, and paste the webhook URL you copied from Pabbly Connect. Set the status to active and save the webhook. This step ensures that whenever an order is updated in WooCommerce, the data will be sent to Pabbly Connect.

• Go to WooCommerce Settings > Advanced > Webhooks.
• Click ‘Add Webhook’.
• Name your webhook and set the topic to ‘Order Updated’.
• Paste the webhook URL from Pabbly Connect.

Once saved, WooCommerce will send order updates to Pabbly Connect, which will then process this information for Airtable.

4. Configuring Airtable Integration in Pabbly Connect

With the webhook set up, the next step is to configure Airtable within Pabbly Connect. Go back to your workflow and add an action step. Choose Airtable as the action application and select ‘Create Record’ as the action event. This allows you to send order details from WooCommerce to Airtable.

To connect Airtable to Pabbly Connect, you will need your Airtable API key. You can find this in your Airtable account settings. Copy the API key and paste it into Pabbly Connect when prompted. This step is essential for establishing a secure connection between the two platforms.

Add an action step in Pabbly Connect. Select Airtable and choose ‘Create Record’. Obtain your Airtable API key from your Airtable account settings. Paste the API key into Pabbly Connect.

After connecting Airtable, you will need to map the order details from WooCommerce to the corresponding fields in Airtable. This ensures that all relevant information is captured accurately in your Airtable database.

5. Testing and Finalizing the Integration

To test the integration, return to your WooCommerce store and place a test order. Ensure that all required details are filled out correctly. Once the order is placed, switch back to Pabbly Connect and check for the webhook response. You should see the order details captured successfully.

If the data appears correctly, proceed to send a test request to Airtable from Pabbly Connect. This step will create a new record in your Airtable database with the order information. Verify that the record is created as expected, confirming that the integration works flawlessly.

Place a test order in WooCommerce. Check for the webhook response in Pabbly Connect. Send a test request to Airtable. Verify that the record is created in Airtable.

Once you confirm that everything is working as intended, save your workflow in Pabbly Connect. Your WooCommerce orders will now automatically sync with Airtable, streamlining your order management process.
