2. Creating a Workflow in Pabbly Connect

After signing in to Pabbly Connect, you will be directed to your dashboard. From here, click on the ‘Create Workflow’ option to start setting up your automation. A dialog box will appear asking you to name your workflow. Name it ‘Automate Content Summarization Using AI Agent’ and select the appropriate folder for organization.

  • Name your workflow for easy identification.
  • Select a folder to save your workflow.
  • Click on ‘Create’ to finalize your workflow setup.

This initiates the creation of your automation workflow, which consists of a trigger and an action. The trigger will be the event that starts the workflow, while the action will be the response to that trigger.


3. Setting Up the Trigger with Google Drive

In this step, you will set up the trigger using Google Drive within Pabbly Connect. Choose Google Drive as your trigger application and select the event ‘New File in Specific Folder’. This means that whenever a new PDF document is uploaded to a designated folder, it will trigger the workflow.

Next, establish a connection between Google Drive and Pabbly Connect. Click on the ‘Connect’ button, and if you do not have an existing connection, select ‘Add New Connection’. You will need to log into your Google Drive account and grant permissions for Pabbly Connect to access your files.


4. Using AI Agent for Content Summarization

Once the trigger is set up, the next step is to utilize your AI agent for summarizing the content. Select OpenAI as your action application in Pabbly Connect. Choose the event ‘Extract Content from PDF or Image’. This will allow you to summarize the content from the uploaded PDF files.

To create a connection, click on ‘Connect’ and enter your API token from OpenAI. After successfully connecting, select the model you want to use for summarization. In this case, select ‘GPT-4 Mini’ for effective content summarization.

  • Select the OpenAI model for summarization.
  • Map the PDF URL from the previous response to extract content.
  • Provide a prompt for the AI to summarize the content.

After setting up the prompt, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’. You will receive a summary of the content along with relevant keywords, ready to be added to your Google Sheets.


5. Updating Google Sheets with Summarized Content

The final step involves updating Google Sheets with the summarized content. In Pabbly Connect, add a new action step by selecting Google Sheets as your action application. Choose the event ‘Add New Row’ to create a new entry for each summarized document.

Connect Google Sheets to Pabbly Connect by following the same connection steps as before. Once connected, select the spreadsheet and sheet where you want to store the summary. Map the title, summary, and URL from the previous responses into the corresponding fields.

After completing the mapping, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’. Check your Google Sheets to confirm that the title, summary, and URL have been successfully added. This automation ensures that each time a new PDF is uploaded, it is summarized and recorded without any manual intervention.
