Setting Up WhatsApp in Pabbly Connect

Now that your YouTube account is connected to Pabbly Connect, it’s time to set up WhatsApp as the action application. Choose WhatsApp from the list of applications and select the action event as ‘Send Message’. This allows you to send a message with the new video link directly to WhatsApp.

Next, you need to connect your WhatsApp account. Click on the ‘Connect with WhatsApp’ button and follow the prompts to authorize Pabbly Connect to send messages on your behalf. Make sure to input the phone number where you want to receive the video links.

After setting up the message details, click on ‘Save’ to finalize the integration. This will ensure that every time a new video is uploaded to your specified YouTube channel, a message will be sent to your WhatsApp.

Testing the YouTube to WhatsApp Integration

With both YouTube and WhatsApp connected to Pabbly Connect, it’s time to test the entire integration. Go back to your YouTube channel and upload a new video. Ensure that the video is Pabbly and visible to everyone so that it can trigger the workflow.

Once the video is uploaded, check your WhatsApp for the incoming message. The message should contain the new video link along with any other details you configured. If the message arrives as expected, your integration is successfully set up and working.
