2. Creating a New Workflow in Pabbly Connect

After signing in, the next step is to create a new workflow in Pabbly Connect. Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button. You will be prompted to name your workflow. Enter a descriptive name like ‘Automate Gardening Blog Articles’.

Once named, select the folder where you want to save this workflow and click ‘Create’. This will take you to the workflow window, where you can set up triggers and actions. The trigger will be the event that starts the automation process.

• Click on ‘Google Sheets’ as the trigger application.
• Select ‘New or Updated Spreadsheet Row’ as the trigger event.
• Copy the provided webhook URL for later use.

After setting up your trigger, you will be ready to connect your Google Sheets to Pabbly Connect and automate the process.

3. Integrating Google Sheets with Pabbly Connect

The next step involves integrating Google Sheets with Pabbly Connect. Open your Google Sheets and navigate to Extensions > Add-ons > Get Add-ons. Search for the ‘Pabbly Connect Webhooks’ extension and install it.

After installation, refresh your spreadsheet. This step is crucial as it activates the Pabbly Connect Webhooks option. Go back to Extensions > Pabbly Connect Webhooks > Initial Setup. Paste the webhook URL you copied earlier and set the trigger column, usually column C.

• Paste the webhook URL in the designated field.
• Set the trigger column to C, which will send the entire row data when filled.
• Click the blue ‘Submit’ button to save your settings.

With this configuration, your Google Sheets is now connected to Pabbly Connect, ready to trigger the automation process.

4. Setting Up OpenAI in Pabbly Connect

After configuring Google Sheets, the next action in your workflow is to set up OpenAI. In Pabbly Connect, select OpenAI as your action application and choose ‘Chat GPT’ as the action event.

You will need to connect your OpenAI account. If you haven’t connected before, click on ‘Add New Connection’ and provide your OpenAI API key. To get this key, go to the OpenAI API key page, create a new secret key, and copy it back to Pabbly Connect.

Select the AI model, preferably GPT-4. Enter the prompt for the article generation, like ‘Generate a gardening blog article based on the following details.’ Map the details from the Google Sheets trigger to the OpenAI prompt.

Once you have completed these steps, you will be able to generate articles automatically based on the information entered in your Google Sheets.

5. Publishing Articles to WordPress via Pabbly Connect

The final step in this automation process is to publish the generated articles to your WordPress account. In your Pabbly Connect workflow, add a new action step and select WordPress as the application. Then, choose ‘Create a Post’ as the action event.

Connect your WordPress account by entering your username and password, along with your WordPress base URL. Ensure the URL is correct by excluding any paths after the main domain. After connecting, you will need to map the title and content generated by OpenAI to the respective fields in WordPress.

Select ‘Post’ as the post type. Map the title and content from OpenAI to the post fields. Set the post status to ‘Published’.

After finalizing these configurations, click ‘Save and Send Request’. Your article will be posted on WordPress automatically, completing the entire automation workflow using Pabbly Connect.

Conclusion

By utilizing Pabbly Connect, you can automate the process of writing gardening blog articles using Google Sheets and OpenAI, ultimately saving time and enhancing your blogging efficiency. This integration allows for seamless content generation and publishing directly to WordPress.
