Let’s look at creating Facebook and Slack automation scenario. This automation will send new leads from FB to your Slack account. You can also set up a similar automation with other apps, the configuration will be the same.
Before setting up a an automation, connect the apps to Albato:
- Connecting Facebook to Albato
Sign in to your Albato account. Open the Automations tab and click the New button. Select Facebook as the data source app and «Ad Lead» event to trigger the automation. Then specify your Facebook connection, as well as the page and the form to send the leads from.
Now select the operation mode:
Next set up the app to receive the data. In our example we use Slack. Select «Message to channel» as an action and specify your Slack account.
The last step is to create a message template for Slack
The message may consist of any text and parameters from Facebook (for example, full name, email, ect.) separated by spaces. Text can be moved to a new line for comfortable reading in Slack message.
The automation is ready, you can start and test it using a tool from Facebook.
