How It Works?
Picky Assist Connector makes use of the Sendinblue inbuilt Automation Workflow & Webhook module to listen the real-time event alerts from the platform and then based on the event type you will able to create a filter and relevant action to be taken.
Getting Started
The first step is to go to Picky Assist and create a Connector URL, just make sure the Connector is in Online Mode to start accepting requests from Sendinblue whenever the subscribed event is triggered.
Creating Automation Workflow in Sendinblue
Now, we need to create a webhook for getting event updates, i.e whenever an event happens in the Sendinblue Picky Assist will be notified through Webhooks about the event and the Connector will perform the steps configured by you.
Login into Sendinblue and navigate to Automation
Create a Workflow by selecting workflow type and give any name to identify as shown below;
Now we need to select an entry point, entry point means when the workflow should get executed, you will have many options to select as per your different usecases, now we are going to select “New Contacts Submits a Form” i.e whenever a contact fills any form this workflow will get triggered.
Now you have to setup an Action i.e whenever a trigger happens what action should be taken, here we have to select “Call A Webhook” as shown below;
Now we have to copy and paste the Connector URL which we have created in the Picky Assist Connector and make sure you have ticked the “I want to send contact properties to the webhook” so that we receive the mobile number saved against the contact.
Now you will able to see a screen something similar as shown below;
Now we have successfully created an integration between Sendinblue and WhatsApp through Picky Assist, whenever a new form is submitted the details will be pushed to Picky Assist Connector and you will have the option to take different actions like Sending A WhatsApp Message, Adding the Contact to a WhatsApp Drip Campaign etc as per your requirements, you can see the below references for more details
