1. Accessing Pabbly Connect to Automate Video Content Ideas

To automate the generation of video content ideas based on trends, the first step is to access Pabbly Connect. This platform acts as the central hub for integrating various applications like Google Sheets, Google Docs, and AI agents. Begin by visiting the Pabbly Connect homepage at Pabbly.com/connect.

Once on the homepage, you will see options to sign in or sign up. If you are a new user, click on ‘Sign Up for Free’ to create an account. Existing users can simply sign in. After logging in, you will have access to your dashboard where you can create workflows that automate your tasks.


2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect

After accessing Pabbly Connect, the next step is to create a workflow that will automate the content generation process. Click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button on your dashboard. You will be prompted to name your workflow; for this tutorial, let’s name it ‘Auto-Creation of Video Content Ideas Based on Trends Using AI Agent’.

  • Select the folder where you want to save your workflow.
  • Click on ‘Create’ to set up your workflow.

In this workflow, you will set up triggers and actions. The trigger will be set to Google Sheets, which will initiate the workflow whenever a new row is added. This integration is crucial as it allows Pabbly Connect to automatically respond to new content titles entered in the Google Sheet.


3. Setting Up the Trigger in Google Sheets

Now that your workflow is created, you need to set up the trigger using Google Sheets. Select Google Sheets as your trigger application and choose the event ‘New or Updated Spreadsheet Row’. This means that every time a new row is added to your sheet, it will trigger the workflow in Pabbly Connect.

To connect Google Sheets with Pabbly Connect, you will receive a webhook URL. This URL acts as a bridge for transferring data from Google Sheets to Pabbly Connect. Copy this URL and go to your Google Sheets, then navigate to Extensions > Pabbly Connect Webhooks > Initial Setup.

  • Paste the webhook URL in the provided field.
  • Select the trigger column that will activate the webhook.

Once you have set this up, click on ‘Send Test’ to ensure that the integration works correctly. This step is essential as it confirms that the data from Google Sheets is being sent to Pabbly Connect properly.


4. Integrating AI Agent with Pabbly Connect

The next step is to integrate your AI agent, such as OpenAI, with Pabbly Connect. This integration allows you to generate content ideas based on the trends captured from Google Sheets. In your workflow, select OpenAI as the action application and choose the action event ‘Generate Content’.

To establish this connection, you need to log in to your OpenAI account. Once logged in, select the model you want to use for content generation, such as GPT-4. Then, you will need to provide a prompt that instructs the AI on what type of content to generate based on the title received from Google Sheets.

Specify that the content should be structured and formatted properly. Include details on trending topics and relevant hashtags.

After setting up the prompt, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to generate the content. The AI will respond with trending video ideas and a structured script.


5. Finalizing Document Creation in Google Docs

Now that you have generated content ideas, the final step is to create a document in Google Docs using Pabbly Connect. Select Google Docs as your action application and choose the action event ‘Create Document’. You will need to provide a name for the document, which can be dynamically mapped from the content generated by OpenAI.

After the document is created, the next action is to append the generated content to the newly created document. Again, select Google Docs and choose the action event ‘Append a Paragraph to Document’. Ensure that you map the document ID from the previous step to make this process dynamic.

Provide the content generated by OpenAI as the text to be appended. Click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’ to finalize the document.

Once this step is completed, your document will be ready in Google Docs with all the generated content ideas, and you can share it with your team members directly.
