How does Pabbly Connect work?
Pabbly Connect works by creating connections between different applications through a series of triggers and actions. When a specific trigger occurs in one application, Pabbly Connect automatically performs a predefined action in another application.
Integrations are done either via Webhook or an API module.
Once a workflow is set up, the tool performs checks for new data - this is called operations. And, Pabbly Connect offers unlimited operations.
What apps does Pabbly Connect integrate with?
The automation tool integrates with 1,000+ applications, including CRMs, marketing, and collaboration tools. It also integrates with OpenAI which can be leveraged for any task.
Parseur integration with Pabbly Connect
Parseur integrates with Pabbly Connect the same way it integrates with IFTTT or Make. As a PDF with a robust OCR engine , Parseur can send structured data to thousands of applications.
Parseur is a template-based extraction platform that requires zero coding knowledge, which makes it a great connector for Pabbly.
Once you click on "create", your template will be created within seconds.

Step 4: Create your trigger as Parseur
Choose "Parseur" as the triggering app and add the triggering event as "document processed".
A Webhook URL will be generated. The trigger step will keep checking each time there's a new document processed in the Parseur mailbox.
Note: In Pabbly, there's only the option of "document processed" or and not "table processed".
Add Parseur as a trigger
Copy the URL and go back to your Parseur mailbox. Click on "Export" and "Webhook and paste the URL as shown below.

Step 7: Send a test request from Pabbly Connect to Google Sheets
Once you're done mapping, click on "send a test request" and verify whether the data has been automatically sent to the Google spreadsheet.

From now on, each time you send an invoice to the Parseur mailbox, it will be processed automatically, and a new row will be created in the spreadsheet with the data in real-time.
Both are automation tools which are similar in many ways, such as helping businesses save time on manual processes. If you are a small business with budget constraints, then Pabbly is your best choice.
However, if you operate on a larger scale and have the investment, then Zapier will suit your requirements in a better way.
Can I send table data to Pabbly?
Unfortunately, Pabbly can only process document data at the moment.
Do I have to repeat the above integration steps each time I have a new document?
No. From now on, each time Parseur receives a new document, it will be processed automatically and sent to Pabbly.
