Connectors
Chatfuel
Connecting Chatfuel to PYLO, what it brings and how to tell it is working.
Chatfuel connects to PYLO so that:
- DM funnel opt-ins from a Chatfuel bot arrive as leads on the DM funnel, matched to the person PYLO already has.
- Application to booking for the bot's opt-ins, beside every other form.
Connecting
Chatfuel connects by an address PYLO gives you, which the tool posts to. Open Settings, then Integrations, then Chatfuel.
- Create the address below and copy it.
- In the Chatfuel flow, save the user's email to the email attribute before this step. PYLO files a person by email, so a user with none is refused rather than filed twice.
- Add a JSON API (or Send Request) block: POST to the address, sending first name, last name, email, phone and any UTM attributes.
- Leads land on the DM funnel unless you map the form key elsewhere under Website form. Run the flow once; this page says connected when it arrives.
What PYLO reads
- The user attributes the block sends: name, email, phone, and any attribute such as UTMs and pylo_form
- The Chatfuel user id and Instagram handle, when sent
It does not read:
- The conversation itself
- Users who never reach the block that posts to PYLO
