1. Setting Up Pabbly Connect for Automation

To begin automating the blog content generation process, first, access Pabbly Connect. This platform allows seamless integration between Google Sheets, OpenAI, and Microsoft Outlook.

Start by creating a free account on the Pabbly Connect website. Once logged in, navigate to the dashboard and click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button. You’ll be prompted to name your workflow; for this example, name it ‘Auto-generate and Send Blogs Using OpenAI’.

2. Trigger Setup with Google Sheets

In this step, we will set Google Sheets as the trigger application in Pabbly Connect. This allows the workflow to activate whenever new data is entered.

• Select Google Sheets as the trigger application.
• Choose the ‘New or Updated Spreadsheet Row’ event.
• Follow the provided instructions to connect your Google Sheets account.

After establishing the connection, you will need to map the trigger column, typically the column where you input the blog details. This setup ensures that whenever a new row is added, the workflow will kick off.

3. Generating Content with OpenAI

Next, we will use OpenAI to generate blog content based on the data from Google Sheets. This step is crucial as it utilizes the capabilities of Pabbly Connect to connect with OpenAI.

Search for OpenAI in the action application section of Pabbly Connect and select the ‘Generate Content’ event. You will need to connect your OpenAI account by providing your API key. Once connected, map the fields from Google Sheets to OpenAI, including the prompt and temperature settings for content generation.

• Enter the prompt for the blog topic.
• Set the temperature for content randomness.
• Specify the maximum length of the generated content.

After mapping these fields, test the connection to ensure OpenAI can generate the content successfully.

4. Sending Emails with Microsoft Outlook

After generating the blog content, the next step is to send it via Microsoft Outlook. This is where Pabbly Connect facilitates the integration with Microsoft 365.

In the action application, search for Microsoft 365 and select the ‘Send Email’ event. Connect your Outlook account and map the fields for the email, including the recipient’s address, subject, and body content. Make sure to use the generated content from OpenAI in the email body.

Map the recipient’s email from your subscriber list. Set an appropriate subject line for the email. Ensure the body contains the generated blog content.

Once everything is mapped correctly, test the email action to verify that the blog content is sent successfully to the intended recipients.
