To start automating your Tumblr posts, first access Pabbly Connect. If you’re a new user, visit pabbl.com/connect in your browser. This will take you to the landing page where you can sign up for free, allowing you to explore the features with 100 tasks every month.

Existing users can directly open the workflow builder in Pabbly Connect. This is where you will create your automation workflow. Remember, with the free plan, you can post on Tumblr a hundred times without any cost, making it an excellent opportunity to try out the platform.

2. Setting Up the Trigger for Daily Posts

The next step is to set up the trigger in Pabbly Connect. Click on the ‘Add Trigger’ button to begin. For the trigger application, search for ‘Schedule by Pabbly’. This will allow you to schedule your workflow.

  • Select ‘Schedule Workflow’ as the event.
  • Choose how often you want to run the workflow, selecting ‘Every Day’.
  • Set the time for the workflow to run, e.g., 1 PM.

After configuring the trigger, click on ‘Save’. Now your workflow is set to run every day at your chosen time. This is the foundation for automating your Tumblr posts using Pabbly Connect.

3. Generating Post Content Using OpenAI

After setting up the trigger, the next step is to generate the content for your Tumblr post. Click on ‘Add New Action Step’ and search for ‘OpenAI’. Select it and choose ‘ChatGPT’ as the event to generate text content.

If you have an existing connection, select it; otherwise, create a new connection using your OpenAI API key. To obtain this key, log in to your OpenAI account and generate a new secret key. Once you have the key, paste it into Pabbly Connect and save your connection.

  • Select the model of your choice for generating content.
  • Enter a prompt for the content you want to generate.

After entering the prompt, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’. This will generate the message content that will be posted on Tumblr. With Pabbly Connect, you can dynamically create engaging posts every day.

4. Generating Images for Tumblr Posts

Next, we will generate an image for your post using OpenAI. Again, click on ‘Add New Action Step’, search for ‘OpenAI’, and select it. This time, choose the event ‘Generate Image’.

Use the same connection created earlier. Select the model, and for the prompt, map the caption generated in the previous step. This mapping allows Pabbly Connect to dynamically insert the generated text as the image prompt.

Specify the number of images to generate, e.g., 1. Choose the desired size and quality for the image.

Once you have configured the settings, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’. The image will be created based on the prompt provided. This integration with Pabbly Connect ensures that your posts are visually appealing and relevant.

5. Posting on Tumblr Using Pabbly Connect

Finally, it’s time to post on Tumblr. Click on ‘Add New Action Step’, search for ‘Tumblr’, and select it. Choose ‘Create Photo Post’ as the event.

Connect your Tumblr account to Pabbly Connect if you haven’t done so already. Make sure you allow all necessary permissions for the connection. After connecting, select the blog where you want to post.

Map the image generated in the previous step. Map the caption generated from OpenAI. Set the post state to ‘Published’.

After saving and sending the test request, check your Tumblr to see the new post. With Pabbly Connect, your automation is complete, and you can now automatically post on Tumblr every day.
