1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for E-Commerce Automation

To automate e-commerce product descriptions, start by accessing Pabbly Connect. This platform enables seamless integration between Google Sheets and Shopify, streamlining your workflow.

First, visit the Pabbly Connect website and log in to your account. If you are a new user, you can sign up for free and receive 100 tasks each month. Once logged in, you will see the dashboard where you can create workflows.

2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect

To initiate the automation process, click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button in Pabbly Connect. This opens a dialog box where you can name your workflow and select a folder for organization.

• Name your workflow, for example, ‘AI Agent to Automate E-Commerce Product Descriptions.’
• Select a folder to save your workflow, such as ‘AI Agent Automations.’

After filling in these details, click on the ‘Create’ button to set up your workflow. You will now see two windows: one for the trigger and one for the action.

3. Setting Up the Trigger with Google Sheets

In this step, you will configure the trigger in Pabbly Connect using Google Sheets. Select Google Sheets as your trigger application and choose the event ‘New or Updated Spreadsheet Row.’ This event captures any new data added to your Google Sheets.

Pabbly Connect will provide you with a webhook URL. Copy this URL and integrate it into your Google Sheets. To do this, go to Extensions, then Add-ons, and search for ‘Pabbly Connect Webhooks.’ Install it if you haven’t already, then refresh your spreadsheet.

• Paste the webhook URL into the initial setup dialog.
• Set the trigger column to the last column where the description will be updated.

After completing this setup, your Google Sheets will be connected to Pabbly Connect, ready to capture product details as they are added.

4. Generating Product Descriptions with AI

Now that your trigger is set up, the next step is to generate product descriptions using an AI agent through Pabbly Connect. Select OpenAI as the action application and choose ‘Create Content’ as the action event.

You will need to connect your OpenAI account by providing an API token. Generate this token from your OpenAI account and paste it into the required field in Pabbly Connect. Specify the AI model you wish to use, such as GPT-4 Mini.

Input a detailed prompt for the AI to create a clear, SEO-friendly product description. Map the required fields like product name, category, features, and keywords from the previous step.

After mapping these fields, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to generate the product description. The AI will respond with a well-crafted description based on the details provided.

5. Creating a Product in Shopify

With the product description generated, the final step is to create a new product in your Shopify store using Pabbly Connect. Select Shopify as the action application and choose ‘Create Product’ as the action event.

Connect your Shopify account by providing the necessary credentials, including the subdomain and API access token. Once connected, you can map the details from the previous steps, including the product title and description generated by the AI agent.

Set the product status to draft to allow for future edits. Map the product pricing, stock quantity, and other relevant details.

After filling in all required fields, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to create the product in Shopify. You will see the newly created product appear in your Shopify store, complete with the AI-generated description.
