1. Introduction to Pabbly Connect for Stripe and Wave Integration

Pabbly Connect is an essential tool for managing financial transactions by integrating Stripe and Wave seamlessly. This integration automates the process of recording payments received via Stripe directly into Wave, reducing manual data entry efforts. By setting up this automation, you can focus on more critical aspects of your business.

To start, sign up for Pabbly Connect by visiting their website. After signing up, log in to access the dashboard, where you can create your first workflow. This workflow will connect Stripe and Wave, ensuring transaction details are automatically recorded in Wave whenever a payment is received through Stripe.

2. Setting Up Your Pabbly Connect Workflow

To set up your integration, navigate to your Pabbly Connect dashboard and click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button. Provide a name for your workflow, such as ‘Stripe to Wave Integration,’ and click on the ‘Create’ button to proceed. This action will load the workflow page where you can define the trigger and action events.

In the workflow page, set Stripe as your trigger application. Choose the event ‘New Charge’ to initiate the workflow whenever a new payment is processed. This will allow you to capture payment details automatically. Next, you will need to set up the webhook in your Stripe account to connect it with Pabbly Connect.

• Log into your Stripe account and go to the Developers section.
• Select Webhooks and click on ‘Add Endpoint’.
• Paste the webhook URL provided by Pabbly Connect.
• Select the event ‘charge.succeeded’ to trigger the workflow on successful payments.

After setting up the webhook, you will be able to test the connection and ensure it is working correctly before proceeding to the next steps.

3. Capturing Customer Details and Integrating with Wave

Once the Stripe trigger is set, the next step in your Pabbly Connect workflow is to retrieve customer details using the ‘Retrieve Customer by ID’ action in Stripe. This action will allow you to capture essential customer information needed for the Wave integration. After retrieving the customer details, you will need to check if the customer already exists in Wave.

To do this, add another action step and select Wave as the application. Choose the action event ‘Get Customer by Email’ and map the customer email retrieved from the previous step. This will help determine if the customer is already recorded in your Wave accounting software.

• Map the customer email to the appropriate field in Wave.
• Check the response for the customer node ID to confirm their existence.
• If the customer does not exist, you will create a new customer in Wave.

By following these steps, you can ensure customer details are accurately reflected in your Wave account, streamlining your financial management process.

4. Utilizing the Router Feature in Pabbly Connect

The router feature in Pabbly Connect allows you to create conditional paths based on whether the customer exists in Wave. After retrieving the customer details, you can set up two routes: one for existing customers and another for new customers. This ensures that your workflow can handle both scenarios effectively.

In the first route, set a filter to check if the customer node ID exists. If true, proceed to create a transaction in Wave using the ‘Create Transaction’ action. Map all necessary fields, including the amount and transaction details. For new customers, set the second route to create a customer first before recording the transaction.

Use the ‘Create Customer’ action for new customers. Map the customer details appropriately to ensure accurate records. Finalize the transaction creation with all required information.

This routing setup allows for efficient handling of financial transactions, ensuring all relevant data is captured accurately in Wave.

5. Finalizing Your Pabbly Connect Workflow

After setting up both routes in your Pabbly Connect workflow, the final step is to ensure everything is connected properly. Review each action step to confirm that all necessary data is mapped correctly. This includes ensuring that the transaction amount is formatted correctly and that all required fields are filled in.

Once your workflow is complete, save the changes and test the integration by processing a test payment through Stripe. This will trigger the workflow and allow you to verify that the transaction details are recorded in Wave as expected. If everything works correctly, you can be confident that your financial transactions will be managed efficiently without manual intervention.
