How to Automatically Save Razorpay Failed Payments on Google Sheets

  • by

In this post, we will see how you can integrate Razorpay with Google Sheets and automatically save Razorpay failed payment details in Google Sheets.
This automation requires a one-time setup, for which we will use Pabbly Connect.
We will link Razorpay with Pabbly Connect to capture the failed payment details, link Pabbly Connect with Google Sheets and save those payment details.

Steps to Automatically Save Razorpay Failed Payments on Google Sheets

1. Sign In / Sign Up to Pabbly Connect and Create a Workflow
2. Establish a Connection between Razorpay and Pabbly Connect
3. Correct the Payment Amount Captured
4. Setup Google Sheets as the Action App to Store Payment Details

Step 1:- Sign In / Sign Up to Pabbly Connect and Create a Workflow

A. Sign In / Sign Up

To begin this process, visit Pabbly Connect and create your account by clicking on the ‘Sign Up Free’ button. You can also click on Sign In if you already have an account.

Click on the Pabbly Connect ‘Access Now’ button

B. Create Workflow

To create a new workflow, click the ‘Create Workflow’ button.

Name your workflow, and click on ‘Create’.

Step 2:- Establish a Connection between Razorpay and Pabbly Connect

We will look at the steps through which we can establish a link between Razorpay and Pabbly Connect. This will help us capture the data for each failed payment.

A. Trigger App

Trigger allows us to choose the application that will receive the data for Pabbly Connect. In our case, it would be Razorpay.

Expand the Trigger Step, choose ‘Razorpay’ as your Action App, and select ‘Payment Failed’ as an Action Event.

B. Webhook URL

A new Webhook URL will get generated. You will use this Webhook URL to create a connection with your Razorpay account. Copy the Webhook URL.

As soon as you Copy the Webhook URL, Pabbly Connect will start looking to capture data from Razorpay, as indicated by the rotating Waiting For Webhook Response button.

C. Connect Razorpay Account

To connect with your Razorpay account, go to your Razorpay dashboard and click on ‘Settings’ > ‘Webhooks’ > ‘Add New Webhook’.

You will be prompted to create a Webhook URL. Paste the Webhook URL we copied earlier. Since we only want to capture responses in case of failed payments we will select ‘payment.failed’ as the Active Events and click on ‘Create Webhook’.

D. Test Connection

Let us now test the connection we just established by making a dummy payment. Open your Razorpay payment form in an incognito tab, fill in dummy credentials and make the payment fail.

You will receive a failed payment response along with the customer details and reason for the failed payment. Thus, confirming the successful connection.

Step 3:- Correct the Payment Amount Captured

The payment amount we captured from Razorpay is incorrect as it contains two extra zeroes. To trim this value, we will add an API to our workflow.

Choose ‘API by Pabbly’ as your Action App, select ‘GET’ as an Action Event, and enter ‘https://forms.pabbly.com/api/trim_amount’ as your Endpoint URL.

Choose ‘No Auth’ as Authentication and check ‘Set Parameters’. You will be asked for a Label and Value. Give a Label and map the Value from the step above. At last, click on ‘Save & Send Test Request’.

Your amount is trimmed down and correct.

Step 4:- Setup Google Sheets as the Action App to Store Payment Details

A. Action App

Action allows us to choose the application that will get executed by the workflow trigger.
We essentially want to store the payment details in Google Sheets. Therefore, Google Sheets will be our Action App.

Choose ‘Google Sheets’ as your Action App. Select ‘Add New Row’ as the Action Event. by doing this we are essentially asking Pabbly Connect to add data in a new row of your spreadsheet. Click on ‘Connect’

B. Connect Google Sheets Account

To connect with your Google Sheets account, select ‘Add New Connection’, and click on ‘Connect With Google Sheets’. Also, grant the authorization.

Select the Spreadsheet and Sheet you want to use for storing your data.

As soon as you select your sheet, the columns of this sheet will start reflecting as fields in your Action Step.

C. Map Necessary Fields

Now that you have connected your Google Sheets account, all you need is to map the necessary details from the step above. Mapping ensures our data remains dynamic and changes as per the received responses.

Map Name from the step above.

Similarly, map the other fields and click ‘Save & Send Test Request’.

As soon as you click on Save & Send Test Request, your payment details will get stored in Google Sheets.

Our automation is complete. We have successfully integrated Razorpay with Google Sheets. The details of each new failed payment on Razorpay will now automatically be saved in Google Sheets.
