Now, you need to set up the trigger in Pabbly Connect. Click on the arrow in the trigger section and select ‘WordPress’ as your trigger application. For the trigger event, choose ‘User Registers’. This means that every time a new user is created in your WordPress account, it will trigger the workflow.

To connect WordPress to Pabbly Connect, you will be provided with a unique webhook URL. Copy this URL, then log into your WordPress account. Navigate to the plugins section and install the WP Webhooks plugin if you haven’t done so already.

• Search for and install the WP Webhooks plugin.
• Go to the plugin settings and select ‘Send Data’.

By mapping the fields, you ensure that each new user’s details are stored correctly in your Google Sheets.

Now it’s time to test the integration. Create a new user in your WordPress account by navigating to the Users section and selecting ‘Add New User’. Fill in the required information, such as username, email, first name, last name, and role, then click ‘Add New User’.

Once the user is created, return to your Pabbly Connect workflow. You should see a response indicating that the new user data has been captured. Open your Google Sheets to verify that the new user’s information has been correctly added to the designated sheet.
