# Pabbly Connect

Connect Pabbly Connect as a webhook data source: how a Pabbly Connect workflow posts contacts and events into the Instasent ingest stream, what it syncs, how fields map to attributes, and how consent is controlled through the data you send.

**Language:** en
**Audience:** platform
**TLDR:** Webhook platform: Instasent creates the source and gives you the credentials (project UID, data source ID and Token) that you use in the Instasent shared app inside your Pabbly Connect workflow. The workflow posts contacts and events in real time. Consent depends on the attributes you map in the payload.

Pabbly Connect is a **webhook platform**: rather than reading your data directly, it lets
you build a workflow that posts contacts and events into Instasent's ingest stream. Use
it to connect Instasent to any of the apps Pabbly Connect supports that don't have a
native connector.

## How to connect

Pabbly Connect is a **[webhook platform](/platform/en/data-sources/connectors#webhook-platforms-we-give-you-the-credentials)**:
you don't create a credential on Pabbly's side — **Instasent creates the source and gives
you the credentials**, and you use them in Pabbly Connect. You can do the Instasent side
**before you have anything set up on Pabbly**; the source is created and waits for data in
real time. Instasent is available in Pabbly Connect through a **shared app**.

#### 1. Add the data source

In **Data sources**, select **Add data source** and choose **Pabbly Connect** from
the Integrations section.

#### 2. Configure the source

Fill in the **Configure** step — **Connection name**, **Default country**, **Regional
settings** / **Locale** and **Timezone** — and Instasent creates the source.

#### 3. Copy your credentials

Instasent shows the source's credentials under **Setup instructions** — the **Project
UID**, the **Data source ID** and the **Token**. Keep them safe.

#### 4. Add Instasent to your Pabbly workflow

Add the Instasent shared app to your Pabbly Connect workflow and use its actions to
send contacts and events, entering the credentials from the panel.

#### 5. Watch the stream log

Back in Instasent, the source shows a **stream log** of the data arriving, so you can
confirm your workflow is working.

For the endpoint shapes and the full credentials, see
[API & webhooks](/platform/en/data-sources/api-webhooks).

## What it syncs

Pabbly Connect sends whatever your workflow posts — typically **contacts** and **events**,
in **real time** as the workflow runs. The payload follows the ingest format: a contact
payload identifies the contact (`contact_id`); an event payload adds the event name and
its parameters.

## Field mapping

The fields you send are mapped to Instasent attributes the same way as any source — you
decide in your workflow which values go into which fields, and confirm the mapping. See
[field mapping](/platform/en/data-sources/managing#field-mapping).

## Consent mapping

Pabbly Connect has no consent mapping of its own — it simply passes through the data your
workflow sends. **Consent is controlled by the columns and attributes you include in the
payload.** {/* VERIFY: this connector carries no dedicated marketing-consent signal; consent depends entirely on the attributes you map. */} If you send the consent attributes (`_accepts_marketing_*`,
`_is_subscribed_*`), the same rules apply as for any import: only set
`_accepts_marketing_*` to `false` on an **active opt-out**; "no data" stays `null`. See
[Consent](/platform/en/consent/marketing-preference-vs-suppression).
