1. Setting Up Pabbly Connect for Automation

In this section, we will learn how to set up Pabbly Connect to automate the process of generating images and text using OpenAI. Start by signing up for a free account on the Pabbly Connect dashboard. This step is essential to access the automation features.

Once logged in, click on ‘Create Workflow’ and name your workflow, for example, ‘Google Sheets to OpenAI’. This establishes the foundation of your automation where Pabbly Connect will facilitate the integration between Google Sheets and OpenAI.


2. Setting Google Sheets as the Trigger in Pabbly Connect

To initiate the automation, we need to set Google Sheets as the trigger application in Pabbly Connect. In the trigger window, select Google Sheets and from the dropdown, choose ‘New or Updated Spreadsheet Row’ as the trigger event.

  • Choose Google Sheets as your trigger application.
  • Select the trigger event ‘New or Updated Spreadsheet Row’.
  • Copy the webhook URL provided by Pabbly Connect.

Next, go to your Google Sheet, navigate to Extensions, and install the Pabbly Connect Webhooks add-on. After installation, refresh your Google Sheet to see the add-on in the Extensions menu. In the initial setup, paste the copied webhook URL, select the relevant sheet, and specify the trigger column where new topics will be entered.


3. Generating Content with OpenAI through Pabbly Connect

After setting up Google Sheets, the next step in Pabbly Connect is to generate content using OpenAI. In the action window, search for OpenAI and select ‘Generate Content’ as the action event. Connect your OpenAI account by entering your API key, which can be found in your OpenAI account settings.

Once connected, specify the AI model you want to use, such as the ‘text-DaVinci’ model. In the prompt field, enter something like ‘Write an article on’ followed by the topic from Google Sheets. This allows Pabbly Connect to dynamically generate content based on the input from your Google Sheet.

  • Select the AI model for content generation.
  • Map the topic response from Google Sheets in the prompt.
  • Set the maximum tokens and sampling type according to your preference.

After configuring these settings, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to generate the content. Pabbly Connect will send the request to OpenAI, and you will receive the generated text as a response.


4. Generating Images with OpenAI in Pabbly Connect

Following content generation, we can now generate images using OpenAI through Pabbly Connect. To do this, add another action step and choose OpenAI again, but this time select ‘Generate Image’ as the action event. You can use the same connection established earlier.

In the prompt field, input something like ‘Create an image of’ followed by the topic from Google Sheets. Specify the number of images you want to generate and select the desired image size. When you click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’, Pabbly Connect will request OpenAI to generate the image.

Input the prompt for image generation. Set the number of images and their size. Click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to generate images.

Once the image is generated, you will receive a response containing the image URL. This URL can be used to access the generated image directly.


5. Updating Google Sheets with Generated Content and Images

The final step in this automation process using Pabbly Connect is to update the Google Sheet with the generated content and image URL. Add another action step, select Google Sheets, and choose the action event ‘Update Row’.

Connect your Google Sheets account again and select the spreadsheet where you want to update the data. Map the row index from the trigger response to ensure you are updating the correct row. Then, map the generated content and image URL into their respective fields in the Google Sheet.

Select the correct spreadsheet and sheet for updating. Map the row index to update the correct row. Map the generated content and image URL to their respective fields.

After mapping all the necessary fields, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’. Pabbly Connect will update the Google Sheet with the new content and image URL, completing the automation process.
