1. Setting Up Pabbly Connect for Automation
To write creative arts and crafts articles using AI, we will utilize Pabbly Connect as the central automation platform. Start by signing up for a free account on Pabbly Connect. Once you log in, navigate to the dashboard and select ‘Create Workflow’ to initiate your automation.
Give your workflow a name, such as ‘Google Sheets to OpenAI to WordPress’. This will help you easily identify the automation later. After naming your workflow, click on the ‘Create’ button to proceed to the next step of setting up the integration.
2. Connecting Google Sheets to Pabbly Connect
The first step in our automation is to connect Google Sheets to Pabbly Connect. In the trigger window, select Google Sheets as the app. From the trigger event dropdown, choose ‘New or Updated Spreadsheet Row’. This setup allows Pabbly Connect to monitor your Google Sheet for any new titles added.
- Open your Google Sheet where you will enter article titles.
- Go to Extensions > Add-ons > Get Add-ons and search for ‘Pabbly Connect Webhooks’.
- Install the add-on and refresh your Google Sheet.
After refreshing, navigate back to Extensions, hover over Pabbly Connect Webhooks, and click on ‘Initial Setup’. Here, you will need to paste the webhook URL provided by Pabbly Connect and select the trigger column, which is usually the last data entry column. This setup allows Pabbly Connect to receive data whenever a new row is added to your Google Sheet.
3. Integrating OpenAI to Generate Content
Next, we will integrate OpenAI using Pabbly Connect to generate creative articles based on the titles entered in Google Sheets. In the action window of Pabbly Connect, choose OpenAI as the app. Select ‘Generate Content’ as the action event. This step allows you to leverage the AI capabilities of OpenAI to create content.
Connect your OpenAI account by entering your API token. To obtain this token, log in to your OpenAI account, navigate to the API key section, and create a new secret key. After entering the API token in Pabbly Connect, select the AI model you wish to use, typically ‘text-davinci-003’, and set the prompt to ‘Write an article on’ followed by the title from Google Sheets.
- Set the maximum tokens to 256 for concise content generation.
- Adjust the temperature and other parameters as needed for content variability.
Once you have configured these settings, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’. You should receive a response containing the generated article text, which confirms that the integration is functioning correctly.
4. Posting the Generated Content to WordPress
With the article generated by OpenAI, the next step is to create a post on your WordPress site using Pabbly Connect. In the action step, select WordPress as the app and choose the ‘Create Post’ action event. This allows you to publish the content generated by OpenAI directly into WordPress.
Connect your WordPress account by entering your username, password, and base URL. Ensure that you only include the main URL without any additional paths. After connecting, specify the post type as ‘Post’ and map the title and content from the previous steps. Set the post status to ‘Draft’ to review the content before publishing.
After mapping the required fields, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’. A successful response will indicate that a new draft post has been created in your WordPress, containing the title and content generated from OpenAI. You can verify this by checking your WordPress dashboard.
5. Updating Google Sheets with the Post Link
The final step in our automation is to update the Google Sheet with the link to the newly created WordPress post using Pabbly Connect. Add another action step, select Google Sheets, and choose ‘Update Cell Value’ as the action event. This allows you to insert the URL of the newly created post back into your Google Sheet.
Connect your Google Sheets account again and select the spreadsheet and sheet where you want to update the link. For the range, use the appropriate cell reference, mapping the row number from the previous responses to ensure the link goes into the correct row. Finally, map the blog link from the WordPress response to the value field.
Click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to finalize this step. The successful response confirms that the blog link has been updated in your Google Sheet, completing the automation workflow. Now, whenever you add a new title in Google Sheets, the entire process will automatically generate an article and update the link back in your sheet.
