1. Accessing Pabbly Connect for Integration

To start integrating Google Forms with OpenAI and Gmail, first access Pabbly Connect. Navigate to the Pabbly Connect homepage by typing “pabbly.com/connect” in your browser.

Once on the homepage, you will see options to sign in or sign up for free. If you’re new to Pabbly Connect, create your account to explore its features. Existing users can simply sign in.


2. Setting Up Google Forms with Pabbly Connect

In this section, we will set up Google Forms as the trigger application in Pabbly Connect. Select Google Forms as your trigger application and choose the event as “New Response Received”.

  • Select Google Forms from the application list.
  • Choose the event as “New Response Received”.
  • Click the “Connect” button to generate a webhook URL.

Copy the webhook URL provided by Pabbly Connect to link Google Forms with the integration. You will use this URL in your Google Form settings.


3. Configuring Google Sheets for Data Capture

Next, we will set up Google Sheets to capture data from Google Forms. After submitting a response in your Google Form, go to the responses section and link it to a Google Sheet.

In the Google Sheet, navigate to “Extensions”, select “Add-ons”, and then choose “Get Add-ons”. Search for and install the “Pabbly Connect Webhooks” add-on. After installation, go back to the extensions menu to configure the webhook.

  • Select “Pabbly Connect Webhooks” from the Extensions menu.
  • Choose “Initial Setup” to enter the webhook URL.
  • Set the trigger column to the last data column in your Google Sheet.

After submitting the setup, you can test the integration by submitting a new response in Google Forms, which will automatically update the Google Sheet.


4. Generating Email Content with OpenAI

Now that we have the data in Google Sheets, we’ll use Pabbly Connect to generate personalized email content using OpenAI. Select OpenAI as your action application and choose the event as “Send Prompt”.

To connect OpenAI, enter your OpenAI API key. Then, select the AI model, such as GPT-5, and set up the prompt for generating the email content based on the feedback received.

  • Enter your OpenAI API key to establish the connection.
  • Select the AI model (e.g., GPT-5).
  • Map the customer’s name and feedback within the prompt.

Click “Save” and send a test request to verify that the email content is generated correctly.


5. Sending Emails via Gmail Using Pabbly Connect

In the final step, we’ll use Pabbly Connect to send the generated email content through Gmail. Select Gmail as your action application and choose the event as “Send Email”.

Connect your Gmail account and enter the sender’s name and email address. For the recipient’s email, map it from the data received from Google Forms. Fill in the email subject and map the content generated by OpenAI.

  • Map the recipient’s email address from the Google Forms data.
  • Provide a subject line for the email.
  • Select the email content type (plain or HTML).

After configuring the email settings, click “Save” and send the email. You will receive a confirmation that the email was sent successfully.
