Import leads from Google Sheets

Another use case is when a lead is added to a Google Sheet, add a new lead to Instantly campaign.

Here are the simple instructions to follow:

  1. Create a new workflow with Google Sheet trigger "New or updated Spreadsheet row."

  2. Set up trigger events in Google Sheets.

    • Create a new Spreadsheet. Navigate to the "Extensions", move to the "Add-ons" option, and then click on "Get add-ons".

    • A dialog box will appear. Now search for the Pabbly Connect Webhooks add-on, install it, and refresh the page once.

    • Navigate to the "Extensions" menu again, and click on Pabbly Connect Webhooks.

    • Click on the "Initial Setup" option, put the Webhook URL provided above, and specify the trigger column. The trigger column should be the one containing the email address.

    • Click on the "Send Test" button & you should be able to receive the webhook response below. Now, click on the Submit button to save the Initial Setup you did.

  3. Move to the Pabbly Connect Webhook from the Sheet menu under the Extensions menu and choose the event when the Webhook should send data.

  4. Ensure that the trigger column value is modified to capture the New or Updated Spreadsheet row.

  5. The next step is to connect Instantly and choose the step "Add leads to campaign."

  6. Select the campaign to which you want to import the leads, and other variables such as first name, last name, company, etc. Once mapped, test the action.

  7. Open the campaign in Instantly, if the setup is complete, you should see a new lead in your campaign.

Note: On the Step 2 procedure, please take note of the following:

  • If you are manually making the change in the Spreadsheet, the updated data will be sent immediately to Pabbly Connect. Ensure the Send on Event option is enabled in the add-on.

  • If the change is made through an external platform besides Google Forms in the Spreadsheet, the trigger will be sent once every one hour. Ensure you enable the Send on Schedule option in the addon.
